hey does anyone know what i can do to train up my sprinting
im supposed to be a sprinter but i never trained and training long distance running isnt workin very well for me
i woulda thought that just running every day wouldn't help too much so what specific exercises are there what do the pro's do? thanks for your comments/suggestions

Yeah keep your training specific to the distance.

Try to find your optimum didtance - if youre a 400m runner then short sprints are gonna be detrimental to your short endurance.
Warm up properly for sprint training - i used to get injured a lot by not doing this properly. Try to break down your technique to specific areas - eg arms - are they extended enough? Where are the elbows? Stride frequency and length.
Perhaps you should seek a coach? Or maybe help from the internet?
