Want to know how to run faster and finally see real results? This guide breaks down the system behind speed, explaining why strength alone isn’t enough and how improving strength balance, timing, and coordination across your entire body leads to faster, more efficient running.
Hip extensor muscles—primarily the glutes and hamstrings—are essential for producing force in running. But strength alone doesn’t guarantee speed. This article explains how hip extensors work and why balance across your system determines how fast you can actually run.
Getting stronger doesn’t guarantee you’ll run faster. This article explains why strength alone isn’t enough—and how balance, coordination, and system efficiency determine whether your strength actually turns into speed.
Getting stronger doesn’t always make you faster. This article explains how coordination, balance, and system efficiency determine whether your strength actually translates into running speed.
Most athletes focus on pushing harder—but speed is often limited by how fast your legs can cycle. This article explains why hip flexors are the missing link in running speed and how improving their function can unlock faster, more efficient movement.
Most runners focus on the push phase, but speed depends on how fast your entire system can cycle. This article explains the difference between push and swing phases—and why neglecting the swing phase limits how fast you can run.
Increasing stride rate isn’t about running more or pushing harder. This article explains how hip flexors, coordination, and system balance determine how quickly your legs can cycle—and how to improve it without overtraining.
Coordination plays a critical role in running speed, yet most athletes overlook it. This article explains how timing, rhythm, and full-body coordination determine whether strength actually translates into faster running.
Discover the difference between fast twitch and slow twitch muscle fibers and learn what actually impacts running speed and athletic performance.
Discover the three types of muscle and learn which one plays the biggest role in running speed and athletic performance.
Learn how concentric, eccentric, and isometric muscle contractions affect running speed, coordination, and overall athletic performance.
Discover how running mechanics really work using a simple rotation system. Learn how swing patterns, hip flexors, and timing impact your speed and performance.
Learn how running coordination affects speed. Discover how timing, balance, and synchronization improve performance and efficiency.
Learn the most common running form mistakes and how to fix them. Discover why form issues come from imbalance, timing, and coordination.
Learn the truth about stride length vs stride frequency. Discover why both are outcomes of coordination, timing, and full-body movement.

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!!
