Thank you Ian Dube and Mike Goss from USATF-GA (Georgia) for this Vince Anderson podcast.

Please visit their website at www.usatfga.org and their Facebook Fan Page at www.facebook.com/USATFGA.

Previous teleseminars include two-time triple jump Olympian Kenta’ Bell, Nigerian former 400m sprinter & now Coach Innocent Egbunike, and Latif Thomas who needs no introduction by now Smile

Vince Anderson Coach of the Year

Interview with Vince Anderson

Vince Anderson, the assistant coach at Texas A&M University, is a world class sprint, hurdle and relay coach. He has coached a number of athletes to NCAA and US national titles, including Leonard Scott, Jabari Greer, Justin Gatlin, Gary Kikaya and most recently, Muna Lee, the 2008 US Olympic trials champion in the women’s 100m.

Prior to his current position at Texas A&M, Anderson established an outstanding coaching record across 16 years at the University of Tennessee. Vince has also coached a number of world class combined event specialists, including 4-time US national champion Tom Pappas.

Previous article on SpeedEndurance includes Vince Anderson’s Sprint Acceleration and Maximum Velocity as well as a 2008 Vince Anderson Podcast with Derek Evely (prior to his UKA stint).  Both the article and podcast are long reads (the ‘08 Podcast is over 80 minutes long) and highly recommended!

This podcast is over 70 minutes long, and since I’m not a fan of multi-part articles, it is presented as a whole.

Grab a drink and enjoy!

    Vince spoke of his weekly plan consisting of weights Mon, Wed, Fri. Acceleration on Mon & Fri. Tues & Thurs consisting teaching Max velocity mechanics and tempo. My question is what kind of max velocity mechanic training is going on? I would think that would involve fast sprints. .. if so is that to much of a consist load on the CNS from Mon-Fri involving intense efforts?…. what am I missing?

      @TrackNation, I know he LOVES using his acceleration ladder and charts that he has developed over the decades. Looks like I need to have Vince on MY show!

      Often Vince practices max vel. Mechanics at lower intensities.

      @Ian, thank you for the kind words. If I can steal a line from Steve Jobs (and believe me, coaches steal a lot from other people!), it’s “People with passion can change the world for the better….”

      And thank you for continuing the Monday night teleseminars. They are great. I am think of doing one every Wednesday 9am PDT, Noon Eastern, 5pm for UK and 6pm Central Europe.

    This is my first time on the site and I really enjoyed the interview with Vince. I was wondering if anyone knows if the ladder and charts are posted on this site for acceleration? I would love to get a hold of that information to learn how he uses these. Thanks and great site!
