What state is this?
Illinois.
100% I think building challenges, even some soul killing rise above type of things are fantastic when sprinkled in. Get the athletes to believe in something greater than self. Within bodily reason but seemingly impossible tasks to build the group.
It’s a game, not the military.
Excellent presentation, Coach Holler. 👏🏾
Christian explosive
Went to high school in Louisiana, and the track coach was an assistant football coach. His way of doing things was everyone had to grind. 100m sprinters and two milers did the same workout. I dropped three full seconds over one summer once a sprint coach trained me for the 400m.
Hi coach, this 23s drill should a 100m sprinter or a 200m sprinter do it also? Or is for a 400 guy? And how many times a week? Im trying your atomic workout speed + xfactor they are so good, and wanted to know about this drill too
Yes, 100-800m runners need this. Not necessary in off season, but ok to do once every 1-2 weeks.
@@coachtonyholler thank you as always 🙏 One last thing do they warmup before this session and before meet using the atomic speed workout as warmup? So all the drills, one accell and 2 flys?
@@SunOmega Warm up is on their own… literally practicing a meet warm up. Basically an Atomic Workout.
What about general agility exercises (eg tumbling)? Would you put this in layer 2?
Yes. That’s non sport-specific athlete building. I call it x-factor.
Now that’s an anchor man!
Wassup Cody Hope you doing well I got a question. What is a cue you recommend for striking/ punch the ground. I have a habit of letting my lower leg swing in front of my knee before I strike instead of striking as soon as the lower leg becomes perpendicular with the ground I am trying to fix it what cue would you recommend?
Snap up, snap down.
@@coachtonyholler Thanks coach
how is "split and rip" different to a 20-40y sprint other than the start position? or they're the same?
All starts have a split and a rip.
coach how do I get one of those shirts

I’ve been training my youth athletes (7-8th grade) the longest and they are on the cusp of being faster and more agile than the hs (10-11th) athletes I’ve just started training. The main difference, we train speed and power output movements with LOTS of rest. I’m totally sold on less is better and building performance is key.
My balls smell like hot asphalt and vinegar
Couldn’t agree more
When I was in high school, my coach (who specialized in shot put) made me run 3 miles as fast as I can even though I ran the 200 and 400m. I was so confused because I thought I was a sprinter. I eventually got a sprint coach and began sprinting. From my 10th grade year to 12th grade, I went from 54 to 48.75 in the 400m.
Interesting perspective with some good points Tapering is CRITICAL If you taper correctly according to the athlete’s needs for sure that is optimum to be at the best they can be Balance is key Work hard when it’s needed Rest hard when it’s needed Eat Drink & Sleep well when it’s needed Empty the tank in practice than refill that tank with appropriate rest and refueling with good food Train for preventative injury maintenance 60/4-70/30-80/20 High Intensity High Rest Low Intensity Low Rest
In Feed the Cats, athletes stay in a state of performance throughout the year. ALL TRAINING IS “TAPER”.
“…I just block them…” when they can’t put forth a legit criticism… I think this is what he meant.
When I first started coaching I made my distance guys run 4 x 8 x 200. I would NEVER do anything like this now.
We all did crazy things.
Watching our football teams lineman (while we had a practice on the side) running windsprints “to get tougher” before they went into the weight room hurt my soul.
Would you do other training on the same day? Like some easy run before or anything? I'm very new to this and have built up some fitness over the past 6 months with easy runs, LT2 runs and 4x4 hard VO2 intervals and just warmed up and did my first 8 x 15s sprints with 90s rests. I didn't push 100% as it was my first time. I probably went about 95% effort, but my HR only went up to 80% HRM because of the nice long rests, and I now feel like I haven't done anything 2hrs later! What else can be done on these short speed days? MT.
Only train speed when FRESH.
@@coachtonyholler Marvellous! Thank you.
The drop curls in the “Freak of Training” video was wild!
I own a gym in CT I have been watching your methods and applying this to myself, adult clients, and youth athletes with great results and enjoyment. Is there a program or guide you offer to help work on progressions, volume etc. I worry about some of my (40-70) yrs old clients hamstrings and Achilles although I have not had any problems yet. I feel I was very gradual and safe in how I introduced it (lots of skip, prime time, fast March, a skip, shuffle, jump practice ect)but I would like to hear or see your opinion.
I simply undertrain everyone. Err on side of less. Only train fresh. Never burn the steak. Most older people have such diminished outputs that they are not capable of hurting themselves.
@@coachtonyholler thanks so much for responding! Yes. Undertrain. When doing this do you ever feel you are leaving progress on the table for your young athletes specifically? It would be cool to see what work you are doing in the gym. I have herd you talk about concentric focus to keep soreness out. Also how do you feel about older athletes that are primarily strength trained transitioning to sprinting. How do you feel about them “sprint” at 70-80 percent for awhile until form looks sharp and their bodies are more used to the demands of running/ sprinting. I see what your saying about not being able to produce enough force to injure themselves but some people are pretty strong and I worry
@@briancusano327 Makes sense to stay safe and ramp it up.
He was movin🔥

My coach always told me “never confuse effort with performance.”
Love it. Or Wooden… “Never confuse activity with achievement.”
Hi coach, when you give rest days what do they do? Like sitting on the couch resting, go for a 30min walk or something else?
How long does it take for speed improvement?
6-10 weeks
@@coachtonyholler Thanks coach

Tony’s finally coming around to the weight room lol
I’ve been in the weight room longer than you’ve lived. 🙂

Sub Saharan Africans who never left Africa are still much more genetically inclined with sports even more than Americans… I think you need to revisit the topic… I think it’s more to do with bone structure and malaria.
Tore my meniscus after focusing too much on PV and HJ. I didn't do a single sprinting practice in my spring season. Next season, I'll sprint for sure.
Is there a way to buy a Feed the Cats shirt?

Thanks.
Been loving this channel lately. I'm going into my freshman year of football and I was always under the idea that more is better. Hearing about the legends of Walter Payton running the hill, Kobe Bryant waking up at 3 and working out all day inspired me to be a quote on quote "grinder". Ever since I discovered your channel I've been feeding the cats (Ironic because of my profile picture) and my goodness has it been working! My speed is showing significant improvement, alongside everything else (Strength, skills, agility). Thanks coach!
⚡️⚡️⚡️
interested on your take/experience with static stretching. perhaps at the end of the day or after speed training
Haven’t done it with my sprinters in 25 years. Stretched rubber bands don’t shoot very far.
We have still have a dirt track and no long hallways. Any suggestions?
Buy a runway and sprint in the hallways. Sprint in parking lots. Sprint on a dirt track.
i am a 71 year old greco and freestyle wrestler and have been doing sprints as part of my training, but im taking it more seriously nowadays,
Hey Tony, I’m a 400/400H who went to UW-La Crosse my freshman year and got lactic/aerobic shoved down my throat. I’m transferring to UW-Oshkosh with Coach K in the fall and I have to say I love your stuff and I’ve realized even as a long sprinter/hurdler max velocity should always be the priority and I’ve implemented that in my summer workouts!
Coach Kinseth feeds the cats!
I’m a fan of this philosophy 🙏🏾 What are your thoughts on applying this philosophy to 5k training, and maybe even longer endurance events?
Adding athleticism when fresh is highly advised. But, you still have to ENDURE a 5K.
Always a great day when coach Holler posts!!
You have made a huge difference for coaches, athletes, and track. I mostly love that you make track fun and keep athletes healthy. So many kids get burnt out and injured from coaches who overwork them. I coach my kids and always assessing where their mental state is at and if theyre feeling burnt out...thanks
I’ve started doing Feed the Cats for my track and field workouts. I can already notice a difference. I’m moving up this year to high school, and the hurdles obviously raise 9”. I’ve been practicing to get ahead of the game, and I really love how helpful your insight is. Thank you 🫶
A living testament that getting fast definitely made my game, soccer, so much more easier to play all around. 🙏🏾🔥
I love the idea of running 3x150 with 3 minutes rest as long as the runs are intense...do some athletes struggle with this though?
It’s really hard and it hurts.
@@coachtonyholler awesome
Would this allso be true when over 55, like building some muscle and then make those muscles fast by doing speed workouts?
Yes!
@@coachtonyholler Well, in that case I will stick to the normal squats in the morning gymnastics at home, and try to increase explosivity going up.
The anchor leg was moving. What I was watching was his form. Nice and clean shoulders and hips in line and driving forward not down. Great job to his coach
Eccentric is just as important as concentric. I’m pretty sure hamstring strains happens often in sprinting when the hamstring is at lengthen phase of the running gait cycle. So it’s not just concentric thats important. How you gonna mitigate the risk of hamstring strain when you don’t have strength at the lengthened position at a rapid pace then? By doing eccentric lifting on the hamstring. Biomechanics disagrees with you. Just ask any top biomechanist that works with elite level athletes
Lifting does not bulletproof the hamstrings. Lifting, in the absence of sprinting, increases the chance of hamstring injuries.
Hi coach at 5:10 his left arm is straight down and i see my arms are kinda locked in a 90° how do you fix that?
Repetition. Video. Timed sprints.
@@coachtonyholler how is the motion? You throw your arms straight down? Putting a lot of power? I always thought you should relax your arms but if i do so they are locked in 90°
@@SunOmega never locked. Downward elongation is key. Pass the hips.
@@coachtonyholler Thank you so much, i tried today to film myself and i saw this detail, then i tried to stretch my arm downwards but still it was in a kinda 90° position, a little bit better, but i already felt like i was able to strike the ground harder cause i really try to extend and strike my arms downward (dont know if its a benefit or doing this type of motion) still have to fix this tho
I realise that masters M65 sprint training might not be your forte but I had a bizarre result during a recent Garmin lactate threshold test. My notes: "Is Garmin's Lactate Threshold test a waste of time for sprint athletes? LTHR: 151bpm - seemed ridiculously easy compared to previous tests - to the point of being boringly slow. Previous test October 2023, after months of trail running (mostly 3k - 5k), was 153bpm. But today, LTHR of 151bpm calculated max HR as 172bpm which is (2bpm) higher than previously. Not sure of the accuracy of today's test even though it was conducted over nearly 4km. I haven't done any trail running in the past 8 months - track sprint training only, longest session being 2 sets: (2x 150m + 1x 300m). Today's LT test was so easy that, after a 10 minute rest, I did something I'd never normally do: a 6x 100m (60-80%) session - I wanted to check Garmin's reported stamina levels. VO2 Max has increased from 47 to 50 during sprint training. Based on impact of LT test, I would conclude that sprint training has conferred a massive cardiovascular advantage... that I didn't get when running longer distances." #DGTX #TotalHealthMatrix
