How do you guys grind?

I really like just playing all different parts of the game. When I get on I do my dailies and then just jump from island to island to do different things. I usually have a little goal like hit hotf 7. Get Tara 8 or something. I really need money though. With my hunting setup I am making 40m/h but it is just so mind numbingly boring. I did like 26 minutes and stopped. Does anyone else have this experience?

For reference I’m lvl 211, 700m nw😐. I really need money

30m fly

Anything to work on? Sorry about bad vid. Hopefully you can make something out. Here I was just trying to let my stride be natural- with quick steps not focusing on stride length which usually makes me overstride. Here I feel like my stride is good. Any thought?

Overstriding

Wow. My over stride in between the hurdles is horrendous. Please could someone help me fix this?

Head position and Technique

Video from my session today. My head is so far forward. I tried to change in session but couldn’t quite get it to look good. Any advice on this? What should I que?

Also any other advice on my sprinting!

Form

2nd place blue top
My coach says I am too sat down when sprinting. Like my hips are low and I’m basically sitting aj not using my calves and ankles enough. She is telling me calf raises and pogo jumps. I’m starting to do these but I feel like I could learn it some other way. This is from a race.

Please any advice, I feel like this is holding me back heavily

Off season

For my offseason I just want to develop as much speed as possible. I will not be doing speed endurance till like December for indoor where I may try a 400 but mostly 60s.

Currently, I want to start with Max V day just 5x30 flies. This followed by gym but I’m unsure what to hit after max V. I know I want some heavy lifts such as box squat rdl calf raises and step ups maybe bss as well.

This is followed by upper day.

Next is accel 3x10 3x20 2x40 where I want to do legs again but I am unsure how to separate exercises. I would do like hip thrust on this day idk what else. I just want to progressively overload.

Next day is another low effort maybe just cores.
I will then just another upper day followed by max V following day with leg work.

I am unsure where to fit plyos but currently in 8 day cycle 2 max v and 1 accel with 3 lower and 2 upper days. 1 pure rest day

I’m running around 12.6 in 100m and I wanna go mid 11s next years. Any critiques and please advice on where to add plyos and how to overload further in gym. I need more varied exercises as well that will help my sprinting

Track and Field Cup

Has anyone else competed in a cup like athletics competition? In the UK we have a track and field cup where as a school you form a team comprising of 13 events 6 track ranging from 80mh to 1500m and 6 field. Also a relay. I think this format is really fun and it was the most fun I’ve had at comps. You get scored on your performance and you can only 2 events. Would you like to do this? We are a year 9/10 squad equating to 8th and 9th grade

Meet advise: 200 or 100

I want to get a lot faster for next season. This year I was focused on hurdles because I’m kinda slow but I want to focus on sprints next year. I have 3 comps left and I can either do all 100 or 200 at them. Which will be more beneficial. I’m at 25.60 200m and haven’t ran a 100m yet. My 200 was a one off. My 300h times is 43. I kinda wanna transition to 110h next year or the 400 flat. Any advice.

Overstriding

I’m really struggling 3 stepping. I’m over striding so hardly. I know I need to get quicker but I feel like I am quick enough im running fast times but could be way quicker

300h help

I ran 43.8 here in blue. I got second. I need to drop a second to go to nationals. What should I work on? 3rd ever 300mh race so may not be great yet. I feel like my finish was weak but is it just speed that needs improving I’m 17 striding now but if I 15 stride I would probably go way quicker but I can’t maintain that
