EXPLORE THE FUNDAMENTALS

Four ways into the work.

01 / ACCELERATION

The first steps.

Acceleration is the increase in running speed. It is a phase of the sprint, rather than a synonym for every kind of fast running.

Start with this question: which part of the sprint are we trying to understand?

Read the acceleration introduction →

02 / TOP SPEED

Your fastest running.

Maximum velocity describes the highest speed reached. Distinguishing it from acceleration makes the language of a training plan clearer.

Start with this question: are we discussing gaining speed or the speed reached?

03 / STRENGTH

Support the whole plan.

Strength and power work sit within a wider sprint-training program. This topic explores how supporting work relates to the purpose of the plan.

Start with this question: what role is this exercise intended to play?

04 / PLANNING

Make the purpose visible.

A training note can capture more than the result. Record the intention, what you actually did, and the questions you want to revisit.

Start with this question: what will I want to remember about today?

The four introductions link to sections of our first guide. This library starts small and will grow over time.

HOW TO USE SPRINTIQ LEARN

Read. Ask questions. Add context.

Use these explanations to build vocabulary and have better conversations about your training. Research references appear alongside the relevant material. Our worksheets are editorial tools, not validated assessments or individualized plans.

The introductory training concepts draw on Haugen and colleagues’ sprint-training review. Its elite-athlete focus is a reason to avoid copying a program without context.
