Natasha Hastings 6x500 Workout Wednesday 

💀

John ARTWELL yes it is! And my high school rarely even recognizes our track team because of the football team with a long losing streak. I feel as though people don't think of track as a hard sport because they think it's just running

@@kalabrown6340 I use to be a Football player, a boxer & a Track sprinter. And I can honestly say that I've never gotten seriously injured in Football & Boxing but I was injured almost all the time in Track. Pulled hammies, quads, Achilles tendon issues, calf muscle twinges, & even groin pulls. And Track Training was 10 times tougher than Football & boxing combined. This is not to say that Football & Boxing wasn't tough, track training was just more exhausting & tiring! I feel both of your pain!

Now thats a torturous training at your high school. It puts thes guys to shame. It does not look like they are running nearly as hard as your high school.

@@kalabrown6340 Absolutely right! Football players only think they're tough.

John, that is a brutal workout! How much rest would y'all get between sets? Were you allowed to stop and rest or did you have to maintain a jog between sets?

I would die if i had do do this.I thought I trained hard

she said she just did a weights workout before

AestheticGames ok

+1 give splits pls.

lefou67 lefou67 Listen to what the coach said in the beginning, this kind of training is more for mental training than anything else. Besides, I've trained at an Olympic level and you hardly ever train fast. As the season progresses then you turn up the speed just a little and you want to peak at the right time of the year. Sprinters do longer distance in the beginning of the season. And even at the end of the season you never go past 90% speed in training and that's even too fast. You only go top speed in a race. In essence training fast or at your fastest means you will peak at the wrong time of the season and actually burn out.

I believe I heard someone call out 1:10 on the last piece. But I don't know for sure, it was a few seconds after 7:00, a woman was calling them out in the background.

They are running slow. There is no damage there.

@@stewart140 If you do track then you know this is hell

Rob Elmore they are all faster than you so stfu

you clearly have absolutely no idea of what training as a sprinter is like and what that 7 seven minutes rest is for. They are running the same quality and about the same splits for each 500. And them jogging is easily faster than you running your absolute fastest. Id like to see you run anywhere near their pace for one 500(which you couldn't even come close to) then run similar times back to back for 6 reps. Also their pace will look much faster in real life because the camera is moving with them so you cant see how much ground they cover in each stride but you wouldn't know about that because you've clearly never made a sprint track team in your life.

killa cam in a video, Mo Farah's trainer said "Come on, come on, everybody can run fast when they are fully recovered". I'm a runner myself and I think this is absolutely true. On tuesday I have 4x( 600m (1:45 to 1:50), 300m ( 45 to 47). We have 100m walk rest between 600m and 300m and 2 minutes between the series. With 7 minutes rest I'd normally run 600m in 1:32 and 300m in 38, but with so little rest it is even difficult to keep 46 pace for 300m

that is how sprinters train, much different from middle distance runners and marathon runners.

Rob Elmore they dont have to go fast

Rob Elmore This statement tells me you know nothing about training as a sprinter.

Breuck... you shouldn't even responded to his/her comments mate. Natasha is a constant sub 50 quarter miler, Michael is in the low 48's sometimes sub 48 for the quarter mile obstacle course.
