Olympic Sprinter Lifting Programs for 200m

Lost Boy BSC · Post by **Lost Boy BSC** » Tue Dec 02, 2003 11:46 am

I am interested in finding some example annual lifting programs for an Olympic Sprinter in the 200m or something similar to it. I am a university student and have to create a new program for Kostas Kenteris in a group project I am working in. I am having a hard time locating some sample programs as guidelines. Thanks to anyone who can point me in the right direction. Web sites or books would be helpful, too.

The link below is a lifting program for your use:

This link is an article in the "Coaching" section of the web site.

Squats, lunges, stepups and bounding are excellent strength exercises that will enhance the specific strength of the sprint cycle. Substitute these core exercises in the lifting program.
