From my understanding, all of you who are required to complete periodical fitness tests for your RA are required to do a sprint test.
I was wondering, with possible differences in distances etc. how everyone fares in their sprint times.
Our association required us to complete 40m sprints in 6.2 seconds, but everyone's time is noted and compared so it's necessary to push yourself beyond the requirements every time. There are 3 or 4 official tests in one season and monthly mock tests set up.
At the start of the season I was posting times of 5.7-5.8 which I was quite disappointed with when compared to some other guys.
Since then I've incorporated a lot more sprint training and at the most recent mock test I was posting times mostly at 5.3 or there abouts, which I'm much more content with.
How do you guys do in sprint tests and are you happy/disappointed with how you're doing?
