Evaluate the topic
Plyometrics
as the sprinter can create more powerful muscle contractions due to the increase in immediately available energy reserves in the muscle
Fartleck
The only value would be if they included lots of hill runs to increase intensity otherwise this could be detrimental to his performance, slowing him down
Conclusive point
None of the methods develop reaction time (AO1), which is essential for a sprinter to move out of the blocks as soon as the gun sounds (AO2) therefore the sprinter should also include reaction time training so that all required aspects of fitness are trained within their programme (AO3).
