Fatigue doesn’t just slow you down, it changes how you move…
If you’re training true max velocity, fatigue is the enemy…you want the highest possible outputs, quality mechanics, and full recovery between reps.
Once fatigue creeps in, speed drops, and so does mechanical

efficiency.
But for field and team sport athletes, fatigue is unavoidable. They play and sprint under constant metabolic load…lactate, ion shifts, accumulated stress, and the body has to find new ways to keep producing/maintaining outputs.
That’s where smart programming

matters…building athletes who can tolerate those changes, buffer fatigue, and still express speed late in games.
And not everyone compensates the same way. One athlete might shift more load to the knees, another might lose projection, the goal is knowing what their pattern

looks like and training to control it.
That level of detail, understanding mechanics, fatigue, and individual response, is what I break down inside Speed Kills.
It’s my most complete speed resource yet, how to plan sprint volume, choose distances, use resisted sprints,

organize the weight room, and program plyos that actually transfer. Link in my bio.
