Pyramids. Five 50s, four 100s, three 200s, two 300s, a 400, and then back down. Sprint them and walk back to the starting point and rest a little bit in between. And if you're hardcore, do it over again.Can i do skipping instead of running,is it same effecitve?

when you sprint you use your fast twitch muscles. the name is fitting. you need to do exercises that put your muscles into an anerobic state, which means deplete them of oxygen. This means doing intervals (sprints) and weight lifting.i dont know what muscles u use im guessing thighs and legs but if i was u id go too the closest big5 or anyother place and get some ankle weights and arm weights get like 50 pound ones that way if u use them all the time u get alllllot more faster when u take them off

use ur calfs. just go up to a curb, stand on it with your heels off over the street and do 5 sets of 10 reps, just moving up and down. to make it harder, hold weights as you do it. and your could also lenthen your stride, that could helpMore Questions & Answers...
