 Post subject: 400m Weight/Pace
PostPosted: Mon Mar 15, 2004 5:04 am 
I was wondering what the ideal weight would be for a tall guy over 6 feet who runs the 400m. Furthermore, he has some problems with making quick paces since he has very long legs.

Do you have some tips?

Most 400 meter runners will be medium to tall in height and physically strong in build. The stride length as measured from toe to toe will be about 1.30 multiplied by their standing height.

Lift weights two times a week throughout the season. When I have trained 400 meter and 4x400 runners, they were the bigger and
stronger athletes.
