Sounds good and I have had my share of suffering over the years! I have just read so much talk about specializing and how too much volume can affect your speed that I had to ask. Since I have it in my head that I want to be a sprinter I have forgone all aerobic training and concentrated on heavy lifting, standing starts and short duration all out efforts-- but I guess I need to suck it up and give it all a try-- so should I incorporate alot of steady state training as well?
