Craigerrs - do you use a gym? You'll need help from a qualified gym instructor to show you the proper form, to make sure you avoid injury. I tend to do 4 sets of 12 reps, but you can do 15, upping the weight a bit on the final 2 sets. The final set I might only do about 8 reps if I increase the weight more. The last few reps of the final set should be really hard.
Although for 100m training, it might be better to do only 3 sets of 8 reps, so you train for strength rather than endurance.
Do a Google search Usian Bolt 100m training...I found the squidoo link below that has his training plan:
I did initially paste the info but I thought 'copyright!!' so best look yourself or use the link below:
