How to Get Faster
In this YouTube video, the speaker repeatedly addresses the common athlete question, “How do I get faster?” He cites his mentor, Coach Darren Hanson, as a leading authority on speed development. The core claim is that true speed gains come only from short‑distance, maximal‑effort sprints (approximately 110% effort) that train the nervous system, not from typical conditioning drills such as suicides. The speaker emphasizes that sprinting is the fastest human movement and is essential for athletes in any sport—whether swimming, baseball, golf, or football—because it directly improves top‑speed capability. While conditioning work can improve endurance, it does not increase maximal speed. The speaker offers to tag Coach Darren Hanson for further instruction and encourages viewers to check his material for deeper learning.
