@AZSPORTSNETWORK@BakerBarbell he's in a different State. Rules could be different.
But most place off-season stuff cannot be mandatory.
In-season practice/training can be mandantory.
But coaches will behave/treat kids as if is ..... just not officially written down anywhere.
@PumasTrack For extensive tempo, it doesn't matter so much...ball park actually works either way at these (much) lower intensities.
But yeah, coach would normally have a stopwatch and have a number (in secs) in mind .... and adjust as the intervals as you go.
Relax, its 70%
@pntrack For sub 10.80 in IL, its only 30 boys with a wind legal wind reading.
If you are truly a sub 10.80 kids for real, you eventually will go to meet with a wind gauge.
@Coach_J_Allen@AdamArchuleta Its real rough presentation, but adjust the volume as it plays and please stick with it. @RUGBY_STR_COACH does an excellent job of explaining the physiology and rationale of the 'test'.
Basically the conditioning protocol mimics the conditions/work-to-rest ratios of a game.
@Coach_J_Allen@AdamArchuleta Versions of the Tribe Test is good. You want to train in repeated short Alactic efforts (๐ ฐ๏ธ!-lactic) w/ pinch of aerobic support by manipulating the rest periods & # of intervals/reps/total time.

@sam_gzstrength How is this "new". That paper Petrizzo did back in 2019 showed after 12 weeks of SSNLP average male got up to 132/199/280/315.
So I don't think it would be 'new data' to say in another 9 to 21 months a guy could get to 135/225/315/405. Kinda to be expected, no?
@TrackCoachTG@AltamontXCTF@TrackCoachJones If you go thru the numbers from '21 to '24 (the chart from the article I referenced), the sum improvements in their open 200s pretty much accounts for 4x200 improvements.
3 well executed push passes will always be faster.
@spartanannie@Rave_Speed@umpref27 Funny how this is flipped on you. I always let the sprinters choose do what they want to do. I don't have to steer sprinters themselves away from XC. The general idea of XC does that for me.
Its more about correcting ill-informed XC/distance coaches.
@spartanannie@Rave_Speed@umpref27 IOW: If the athlete really cares about sprint performance, time & recovery resources should be spent on sprint specific off season work: weights, power, technique, plyos, ext-tempo, etc
If they "want to do [something suboptimal]", so be it. Sprinting was never the priority.
