Intro
Sprinters have the most coveted physique in athletics. No other athlete has the
sublime combination of leanness, muscularity, athletic ability, confidence, and
glutes that sit high and tight like a marine's haircut.
When many folks begin their fitness journey they are looking to build muscle,
drop body fat, and feel better about the way their body looks and performs.
Unfortunately, what actually works to get you into top physical condition is being
overshadowed by gimmick products, fake hustle training programs, and fruitless
supplements. Today we take the dang baton back.
My free report will show you the 5 ways you can build a sprinter’s body.

1) SLEEP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkjlzJq5LrU
The most important factor when it comes to maximizing your performance on the
track is sleep. Deep sleep has restorative powers not rivaled by any food or
supplement in this world.
Sprinting is a neural exercise which means that your performance on the track is
directly connected to how fresh and recovered your central nervous system (CNS)
is. While having a deflated CNS is not good for any discipline, it will literally end
your sprint session before you even get to the start line.
The difference between the trainees who have consistently great workouts and
the ones who remain stuck in quicksand is recovery. Whoever lets their CNS
recover properly by prioritizing sleep will have the better long term gains in speed.
If you are currently sleeping in a room that has a lot of external light or noise, then
your sleep quality is not being maximized. Having your laptop, TV, and cell phone
all shoot blue light into your eyes does not help either.
Blue light exposure at night has been shown to suppress your melatonin
production. If your body cannot produce enough melatonin then it will be harder
for you to fall asleep.
One of the best things I did to reduce the amount of blue light my eyes receive at
night was to purchase some blue-light glasses and an eye mask.
When I was young I used to think an eye mask was for the sadity folks but they
were actually onto something. The darkness that the eye mask provides will
improve your sleep quality and the result has been a few years of the best sleep I
have had since my teenage years.
Your curtains can affect the quality of your sleep too. Lighter colored curtains will
let more light into your room and once the sun hits your eyes, your body begins to
naturally wake up.
