Question

Could strengthening my thighs and calves make me faster in running

Answer 1

I'm not 100 percent sure but I think it would since you are more toned and your body is more healthy, you will have more energy to keep up the speed. So. Probably Yes!

Answer 2

Short answer is maybe but long answer is doing bodybuilding techniques to strengthen yuor legs could actually slow you down!

Here is some tips do some romanian deadlifts explosivley, front squats and backsquats explosivley, and deadlift explosivley, mixed in with some classic 5 sets of 5 reps of these excercies like once a week and yuo will build up yuor strength size and explosiveness to creater better stronger faster legs and core.

The main reason is you really have to work on hamstring development to get a faster run time.

Answer 3

yes..but only by so much you also need to train the CNS by utilizing explosive training techniques using weights, plyometrics, etc.

muscle is fired or triggered by electrical stimulus, this is known as reflex action. The greater amount of muscle firing in unison - the greater the overall response - which equals an increase in speed as well as strength.

you also want to stretch, a lot. only light stretching before exercise and the main stretching after exercise when the muscles, tendons and ligaments are warm and pliable. when muscle tissue is relaxed it can generate more force over the entire range of motion
