Most athletes believe faster sprinting comes from producing more force with the pushing leg. AQ explains why the pushing leg still matters, but why speed may also depend on how much the rest of the sprint system contributes to the push expression occurring through that leg. 🚀💥
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.
Force is one of the most misunderstood aspects of running. Many athletes think strength alone creates speed, but force depends on how your system applies and transfers energy. Learn what actually creates force in running and how to improve it.
Many athletes believe faster turnover automatically creates more speed. AQ explains why stride rate is often a reflection of sprint-system function and why identifying the real limitation may matter more than simply trying to move your legs faster.
Many athletes try to fix overstriding by changing where the foot lands. AQ explains why overstriding may be the visible outcome of deeper contributor limitations involving the pushing leg, swing leg, arms, torso, and strength balance.
Most athletes assume shorter ground contact time creates faster running. AQ explains why contact time may often be an outcome of contributor relationships already influencing the next step before the foot reaches the ground.
Does foot strike matter for running speed? AQ explains why foot strike deserves attention, but often isn’t the biggest factor limiting sprint performance.
Ground mechanics describe how the foot interacts with the ground during running. AQ explains why the foot may be where ground mechanics become visible, while the sprint system may be what influences them.
Introduction Most athletes are taught to focus on one thing: 👉 pushing harder off the ground Some may begin to understand: 👉 bringing the leg forward during the swing phase 💥 But there’s a third part of the stride that’s often overlooked: 👉 the pull (return) phase 👉 To understand how this fits into the […]

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!

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!!
