On “Improving top end speed”

to train top end speed hip flexors and hip extensor training is really important [video [video just some examples above also put emphasis on stiffness of tendons such as Achilles for top end speed to train this i recommend doing this exercises im about to link but have a slow eccentric tempo followed by a fast concentric the slow eccentric is to train stiffness. [video also do eccentric Nordic hamstring curls if you can vs lying leg curls on a machine.---- (if you have the ability to do this without over training ) hope this helps but the first 2 should help a lot and the NHC just for hamstring injury prevention because that is always good.

On “Any tips on my form?”

I’ve also noticed that I’m weak/not powerful when my leg is coming down so I’m probably going to do the exercise at 6:00 in the video link to this video I already do the first one standing straight, but I think the second would help with that
