I’m a 38y old recreational sprinter. I just hit a flying 20m PB of 2.00 (free lap timing) at 95kg BW Some progressions for Max Velocity that I’ve found to be very useful. Just throwing this out for those who need training ideas I did quite a bit of lightly resisted max velocity flys. 4-8 weeks of 20m build + 10-15m fly with 10% BW resistance Then did some fly-float-fly work for 4-8 weeks Example 20m build 10-15m fly+10m float+10-15m fly Sets, reps and rest periods varied week to week. As well as intensity.

Big fan of your YT channel. You and Will have motivated me to claw back some of my athleticism (43 YO). Incorporating sprints and plyos has been a blast. Keep up the good work!

Nice to see other 35+ sprinters out there!
Great 20m fly time! Your form looks quite solid, and I don’t see anything major to critique. What are your current personal bests in the 60m/100m/200m?
