40 yard dash times

**P-funk** · 09-30-2007, 04:00 PM

I would guess that you have no clue on how to use those exercises to enahce speed strength and sports performance.

Until you do some research for yourself, don't bother be.

Won't be able to jump as high, or throw as fast of far, that's why MLB pitchers are not huge and bulky, NFL QB's aren't ripped, and Olympic sprinters aren't bulky. They are lean muscle mass. None of them are built like body builders. You want to work on your running for like I said, that's a real fast way to lower your time, take out any un-necessairy movement, and plyometrics, do some research on them if you are curious about them.

You are fucking stupid.

I bet a $1,000,000,000,000,000^999999999999999 that all of you homos except for p-funk are talking out of your ass. P-funk is still a homo, but at least he knows what he is talking about.

I ran a 40 in 4.46 sec, my first time I have ever been timed in it. Im a Junior in Highschool. 4/18/08

5'7" 120lbs Bench: 165x3
30" Vertical

Power cleans, Power cleans, and power cleans.

form runnin, parachutes, bungees, running with form down a slight hill if you can find it. like 5% grade.

I ran a 4.56 on a grass field in soccer cleats for tryouts as a sophmore in high school. I have no clue what I run right now (jr in college) I have stopped doing cardio as much as I did since I played soccer but I am still being asked to run track for the University. I think if I really concentrated on running and quickness I would be working on strength and reflexes.

The whole track team says I have improper form but I am still faster than majority of the sprinting team. They tried teaching me the proper technique but it just felt awkward. I believe plyometics helps for sprinters in how quick they can move their feet and how fast they can get them off the ground.

There are only 2 ways to increase your 40 time. Increase your turn over rate, and increase your stride length. Form running, ABC running, explosive lifts like cleans. I ran a 4.8 40 on an acutrack timer, at 5'11, 235 pounds. I am a linebacker coach in highschool. A lot of the speed i see here in California is actually natural speed. Some of the fastest kids I have seen didnt really lift hard at all... (bastards haha)

Merkaba · 05-05-2008, 09:35 AM

proper arm action is VERY important as well. I was naturally fast, not blazing but fast. When I went to college i actually learned how to run. I've never ran a 4.3 but in a video of some hundred dashes i basically blew past this freak we had at about the thirty yard mark after I decided to tighten my arm swing. So many people throw momentum and action to the side. gotta hammer the nail! make sure your arm swing is good....look into it. (I'm not a track coach)
