  • Summary

  • This episode discusses Athletics Australia's "Strength for Sprinting" guide, exploring the concept of specificity in strength training and highlighting how different training parameters can influence the transfer of gym gains to sprinting performance.

    The article examines five key factors: velocity, muscle group, muscle action, direction of force, and joint angle, demonstrating how training must be tailored to these specific aspects to maximise performance improvement. It argues that strength training should mirror the demands of sprinting, emphasising exercises that replicate the high-velocity, multi-joint movements and specific muscle activation patterns required for optimal speed and power.
