Understanding sprint phase-specific training stimuli: a cluster analysis approach to overload conditions
These findings suggest that tailoring overload conditions to specific sprint phases can optimize sprint-specific training and provide coaches with precise strategies for load prescription. These insights offer a more nuanced approach to resistance-based sprint training by accounting for every step across all acceleration phases, rather than focusing solely on the plateau phase, which accounts for only 20-30% of the steps collected during initial contact to peak velocity depending on the analyzed overload condition.
