Most athletes rely on strength training to get faster—but strength alone doesn’t always translate into speed. This article explains the key difference between traditional strength training and isometric training, showing how each develops a different part of performance. Learn why combining both is essential for improving coordination, applying force more efficiently, and unlocking real running speed.
Learn why combining both helps the sprint system support force more aggressively, transfer force more cleanly, and improve sprint speed.
Learn how muscle shaking exposes hidden support weaknesses and helps improve sprint-system timing, support continuity, and aggressive movement control.

Story: I’ve have been wanting to become a running back for my football team and had trouble increasing my speed. I did many strength exercises like leg presses, leg extensions, and leg curls. I did get results in muscle size, but not that increase of speed.
So, I went to youtube and watched the Speed Challenge video and did the thigh flexor exercise and I found quick results in my 40 yard dash! This increase in speed in so little time amazed me!”

Story: i ran a 4.6 forty yard dash as a junior in highschool. now after two years in college..i’m running a high 4.8 so i am looking to get back to my former speed so that i can possibly walk on a football team. after two weeks i am seeing my time drop and now i think i can get it all the way back down to maybe a 4.5. thanks for offering the Run Faster Program..i think it is really going to work for me.

I have started to use your Speed Training,from June 1 to June 15, which has drastically dropped my 40 yard dash time from a 4.56 to a “MOVING” 4.41. I thank you, and you have blessed me and prepared me better for the next level.”

Story: I was really doubtful that this program would work, but when I finally tried it, it felt great. I feel so much faster. I’ve gone from an 11.9 to an 11.5 and can’t wait to get the whole package and see how much faster I get.

Story: The Run Faster program is incredible! After just 14 days i have seen huge results as i feel more athletic, explosive and quick as i play soccer.
This increase in speed allows me to make goal scoring situations a lot more frequently.
It has helped my game hugely and i strongly recommend the program to any soccer player!

Story: I wasn’t that fast, i mean i was fast but not that fast. so we ran 40’s at school and i got a 5.43, so i wasn’t satisfied, i saw yalls program, i ordered the RUN FASTER program and i did it.
I felt light right after the first workout, i did it the full 2 weeks, and my 40 dropped!! i was so happy. I’m still using it and i know hopefully I’ll be in the 4.8’s soon.
Thanks Dr. Van Such, this was amazing!!
