How to practice running speed?

Generally speaking, as a fitness exercise, what people pursue is fitness, and there are no high requirements for running speed. The speed varies according to each person's physical fitness. Some run fast and some run slow. However, some people still want to practice running speed, which is beneficial for exercising body functions and losing weight quickly. Therefore, how to improve running speed has become a topic of great concern to some people.

First of all, you need to set up a training plan according to your own conditions. At the beginning, run 1000-2000 meters every day (I heard that running in the afternoon is more useful). Remember to time yourself so that you can compare and improve your speed. Don't rush for success at the beginning. No successful athlete can become the world's number one by simply training for a few weeks. After you have been running for a while (it depends on how you feel after running for a certain period of time, as everyone’s physical condition is different and the time is different), if you feel that it is getting easier or relaxed, you can gradually improve by increasing the distance or shortening the time. The most important thing in long-distance running is stride length (that is, the length of one step). When running, the strides should be large and generally at a constant speed. The sprint distance should be determined according to your endurance. At the beginning, it is normal to feel sore leg muscles after running because you are not able to adapt yet. You can apply a hot towel after running and you will get used to it after a while.

As for sprinting, I am not very clear about it, but as long as you improve your explosiveness and exercise the development of your leg muscles, you can improve it. For example, doing high leg raises and frog jumps often can improve it relatively. In fact, the most important thing about running is not talent, but your perseverance and eternal belief. With these two things, you can succeed in anything you do!

Practicing running speed is a big challenge both physically and mentally. Therefore, in order to improve your running speed, you need to have great willpower. Secondly, the speed of running depends largely on the body speed. Everyone should first improve their physical functions, such as doing more physical training, paying attention to some running techniques, and training more.
