How To Run Faster

Want to run faster?
Train your legs to move faster first.

Top speed isn't just about power—
it's about how quickly and efficiently you cycle your legs.

Try exercises like:

• Wicket runs
• Fast leg drills
• A-skips
• High-knee dribbles
• Straight-leg bounds
• Sprint-float-sprint reps

Focus on:

✓ Quick ground contacts
✓ Fast recovery under the hips
✓ Relaxed upper body mechanics
✓ Efficient front-side movement

The goal isn't to reach farther.

It's to recover faster.

Elite sprinters don't spend more time in the air
they spend less time on the ground.

Better leg cycling = higher turnover, more force application, and greater top speed.
