Go to a soccer or football field. Start at one end. Sprint to the centre then jog to the other end, turn around and sprint then jog again. Back and forth for 10/15/20 minutes straight (depending on your fitness level) no rest except for when you are jogging.

I just use the same sprint routine we did for football, remember double-days ?

For example: the first run would be 20 yds and back, next would be 30 and so forth until I reach 100 yards.

After that, I might do back pedals doing the same shuttle run.


And, I also ran track, so I just do the ones I did for track as well.

With my track routine, I start out with jogging 3 laps, and then I usually do about 10 reps of 220meters or 100meters and then add some short shuttle runs of 50 meters about 10 reps, or run a short sprint up a hill 10 times(if there's one close by) and warm down with another 3 lap jog .

So, it's a 3 lap jog -> 220 or 100 meter sprint 10x's -> short-distance sprint 10x's -> 3 lap jog

What the pro-athletes do for sprints is pretty much the same thing. There might do some slight variation. It's the ballistic and plyo workouts that I'm not too familiar with. Like, how long a period and how many of those exercises should I do for each workout session. And how long do I stick with those routines is what I'm not sure about.

I figure what i can do for 6 mins which for me is about 8 mph so ill start at 7 for 6 min 1 min walk 7.5 6 min 1 min walk 8 for 6 min 1 min walk 1 min stretch 1 min walk then 7.5 for 6 mins 1 min walk 8 for 6 min 1 min walk 8.5 for 6 min 1 min walk 1 min stretch and 10 mins at 6 mph. factor in a 5 min warm up and a 5 min warm down walk and its about an hour.

Jog the straight'a ways and sprint the turns. Also you can jog for three minutes and run the "minute rest period" as fast as you can. Michael Carbajal used this method.

Some simple routines would just be wind sprints. I usually like to go for about a mile job as a warm up.

50m sprints * 20
100m sprints * 10

Run at full speed and job back to the start. Those are 2 separate workouts BTW. That would be rough as hell to do them together.

To start off slow with walking warmup for 5 mins then jog for 10-30 seconds then cool down by walking for 1-2min recovery an repeat 8 times.increase intensity every week, good fitness means heart health,this beginner workout helps your heart rate.furthermore this will build up endurence for what i did in football practice in high school ,was a n exercise called gassers ,basically you sprint back and forth the width of a football field four times equels one,we did for reps everyday.

-Run 400m as fast as you can (1 lap of a standard track)
-Rest for 1 minute
-Repeat until you're close to death. I haven't been able to do it on a track yet because it's winter, so instead I do it on a treadmill at full speed (10mph) with the incline cranked up. It's rough.

The important thing with any sprint training, is make sure to do it as hard as you can. Yeah it sucks, but it'll make you're life easier in the ring.

Being really tired running on a track > being really tired in the ring getting punched in the face.
