Here we go over an acceleration sprinting workout, as well as discuss the concept of increasing the stimulus of your training sessions over time in an effort to stabilize movement skills under increasing amounts of stress.

Another common issue that happens in acceleration is spending too much time in the air, not enough time on the ground, and an inefficient progression of posture from low to high.

Typically, athletes will be able to execute good quality movement skills in low stress environments before they are able to replicate this skill execution in a higher stress environment.

Many athletes will find that they have trouble sprinting as well as they do in practice in competition, leading to frustration and second guessing of one's own abilities and potential.

We already progress the training load over time in the form of intensity, volume, etc., but not everybody takes this same approach with modifying the mental and emotional stress levels experienced in practice.

To stabilize our movement skills into something that can be exhibited in high level competitions, we need to progressively challenge athletes with mental and emotional stimuli so that they can stabilize their movement skills in competitionlike environments.
