Weekly 100m Sprint Challenge

The 100m sprint is one of the purest tests of explosive performance. Fast, focused, and fiercely measurable, sprinting strips away distractions and leaves only performance. That’s why the Weekly 100m Sprint Challenge is a cornerstone of the RB100 system.

This isn’t just about setting a personal best — it’s about tracking consistency, measuring weekly adaptation, and embracing the power of speed as part of your overall fitness foundation.

The Setup

  • Find a track, sports field, or measured flat space
  • Warm up thoroughly with dynamic drills (e.g. A-skips, high knees, hip openers)
  • Time your 100m sprint using a stopwatch, sprint app, or partner
  • Record your time every week and aim to improve or maintain consistency

Progression Ideas

  • Sprint in different footwear or surfaces (grass, turf, track)
  • Sprint against a partner for competition effect
  • Pair sprints with resisted starts (e.g. sleds, bands) during training week
  • Add mobility or recovery protocols if fatigue builds up

“Data doesn’t lie. The stopwatch tells the truth.”

Why It Works

  • Explosive strength and stride efficiency
  • Central nervous system activation
  • Sprint-specific mobility and posture
  • Trackable performance metric week to week

100m sprints can be your athletic benchmark. Just one attempt per week keeps you accountable while avoiding burnout. The challenge isn’t only about beating the clock — it’s about building a habit of high-effort execution.
