Mike Powell vs. Carl Lewis…two legends, two different paths.

One leaned on resisted sprints and tech like pneumatic devices (Coached by Randy Huntington) and the other on sprinting ability, plyos, and jumps (Tom Tellez).

What they shared was speed. It’s the quality
2
that elevates everything else…power, agility, explosiveness, endurance, game-changing plays. And it looks different for every athlete.

There’s no “perfect” program. Target the trait and train the individual.

Want the full breakdown of how to actually build speed into your
3
training? It’s all inside Speed Kills. The book petition breaks down how to actually develop speed, what qualities make it, how strength training supports it, and how to structure your lifting and plyometric work.

It covers resisted and overspeed sprinting, the role of the
4
hamstrings (and how to manage hamstring injuries), and much more.

It all comes together with an eight-week speed program that shows you exactly how to apply these principles in training.
