Elite warm up for sprinters

Updated: Jul 28

Sprint Warmup Cheat Sheet cover image

Hey sprinters!


If you’re serious about getting faster and staying injury-free, then I’ve got something for you.


After 13 years in track and field—plus two national hurdle titles—I’ve learned that how you warm up makes or breaks your performance.


That’s why I created a Sprint Warmup Cheat Sheet, a simple, effective checklist to help you prepare like a pro.


Why This Warmup?

Athletes either rush through warmups, or make them sooooooooo long—only to pull a hamstring or struggle with fatigue.


I’ve been there.


But after years of trial, error, and self-experimenting, this is what has sticked...


This cheat sheet lays out exactly what I do before every sprint session—the same routine that has helped me stay injury-free and improve my times.


What’s Inside?


400m Jog – Get the blood flowing without wasting energy.

Foam Rolling – Or other forms of self massage.

Dynamic Stretching – Activate and lengthen muscles.

Sprint Alphabet Drills – Prime your nervous system for what's to come.

Progressive 100m Runs – Ease into challenging-speed performance.


⚠ WARNING: This is what works for me—its up to you to perfect your own personal warmup but this is a good starting point 😎


Get Your Copy Now



Share it with your teammates, coaches, or anyone who’s warmup needs a bit of refining.


Let’s train smarter, run faster, and cut those times down!


And if you have questions, feel free to ask them in the Discord server or here in the comments below!

Great template! Will try and see what works for me, thanks! Ist there a video of the whole workout? There are a few exercises that are not too clear to me (and differ in execution from person to person)

  • Knee-hugging (with rotation)

  • All Bounds

  • All Coordination exercises

Hi Hel, glad that you like it!
