Speed training is a combination of slow and fast running. When you have reached your starting point after running around the track you want to begin a leisurely jog around the track. This entire procedure should be done about three times per week. Never do speed training two days in a row because the muscles won't have a chance to recover from this strenuous activity. After you have been doing your speed training for about two months you may want to change up. You can increase the number of laps to 10. Speed training helps your endurance and it helps you maintain a higher level of speed throughout a race. Speed training can be done on a hill.

Fast Twitch -Because fast twitch fibers use anaerobic metabolism to create fuel, they are much better at generating short bursts of strength or speed than slow muscles. However, they fatigue more quickly. Fast twitch fibers generally produce the same amount of force per contraction as slow muscles, but they get their name because they are able to fire more rapidly. Having more fast twitch fibers can be an asset to a sprinter since she needs to quickly generate a lot of force. Slow twitch-The slow muscles are more efficient at using oxygen to generate more fuel (known as ATP) for continuous, extended muscle contractions over a long time. They fire more slowly than fast twitch fibers and can go for a long time before they fatigue. Therefore, slow twitch fibers are great at helping athletes run marathons and bicycle for hours.
