Best way to get faster?(400m dash)?

If your problem is speed, do speed workouts. eight 400s with little rest in between. Try and make each 400 consistent. If your problem is endurance, run at a medium pace for an hour straight. Every five minutes, run harder for an hour. If you feel ready to die at the end, then you've done it right. This really works, I shaved three seconds off of my 400 time, running a 53.9 when only a month ago I was running a 56.8. Good Luck!

Run with people who are faster then you and push yourself to stay with them. run a lot of 200m and 100m intervals. The 400m is a very tough race it takes alot of pacing skills and technique. on the first 100m do a 95 % sprint, on the 2nd 200m be in jogging formation and keep long strides 80%, 3rd 100m do a fast jog 85-90%, on the last 100m sprint.

No. i don't dine and sprint, i don't shoplift, I constantly purchase a mild rail cost ticket even regardless of the indisputable fact that the fare creditors not often come around to ascertain, I nevertheless supply up at supply up warning signs whilst no person else is around, and if somebody supplies me too lots replace, I supply them back the surplus. we are you watching for in yet in a diverse way? Oh, good... ATHEIST! if so, sure. I dine and sprint for all time, and thieve all the sugar packets, too. additionally, if my around the corner neighbor has some thing i choose, I in basic terms homicide him. Is that greater like it? :-)

sprint training will do the trick

you can run faster on a tread mill and for longer distances and this is believed to be able to increase sprinting speeds although this is not used by the majority of sprinters i think weight training would be usefull to build up muscles for more power

sprint 50 yards, jog back, sprint half way then back (100 yards), sprint half way then back then half way again, walk back then do it again 4 times then 5 and so on. try to add more yards every week

run with a backpack full of rocks for a week

Specialize training just for that event and then genetic ability has the last say

keep training !!!!! the 400 is my race too and sometimes our coach will make us run a mile on the track accelerating he straightaways and jogging the curves. stretch !! it helps alot.
