resistance training, whey protein powder shakes after you work out, agility drills with cones, etc.You can condition and enlarge the muscle cells, but you can not increase their numbers. In other words you must run fast to be able to run fast. You can lift and do exercises to improve the muscle contraction. You can not make more muscle cells. So, the saying sprinters are born and not made is basically true. If you do not have a high percentage of fast twitch muscle fibers no amount of work or diet will change that percentage. You can improve and develop your fast twitch muscle fibers, that is, the ones you already have.
