Camdon's Inverted Row
Strengthening the back can do wonders for your speed. Most people do not realize how important the upperbody is for sprinting. If your upper back is weak the body will not be able to stay straight while sprinting. If you can't stay straight it will take you longer to get to the end of the sprint. Guess what that means? You will be slower. Don't neglect developing the upper back. It will help your posture which will make sure your foot strike is on point. Camdon is performing inverted rows with blast strap to balance pressing vs. pulling exercises. We started with 6 reps and continued until he could do 15 easy reps. There are many variations to add resistance. We could add a weight vest,etc...The main thing is to make sure you progress weekly, but do not compromise your form or safety.
