Usain Bolt has proved himself as the best in the business, on multiple occasions. The athlete’s historic performance at the 2009 World Championships led to a new world record, one that is still unbeaten. With that performance, Bolt earned himself the title of the fastest man on the planet.

Safe to say, only sheer hard work and dedication can lead to such a magnificent outcome. Bolt has revealed in the past how excruciating his training sessions were back then.

During an interview, the athlete was asked about his daily training regimen before retirement in and off-season. Bolt opened up about how athletes change their routines depending on the time of the year.

Usain Bolt talks about his training schedule before retirement

Bolt?s ultimate goal was always to reach the peak and be able to wave his country?s flag on the top. The athlete has worked hard throughout his life to get where he is today.

In an interview recently, Bolt shared his training regime from when he was actively competing. Bolt said, ?In season is a lot shorter, because I’m a sprinter so, we do quicker stuff, less volume and stuff like that. So, maybe two hours, two and a half, you know, I mean, depends on how long the coach wants the session to be.”

After his training session, the athlete would see his masseuse for some extra work. There he focussed on strengthening his hamstring, calf, and back, before hitting abs again.

After the busy in-season schedule, the off-season training program would begin. Notably, these sessions were longer ones since they included a lot more running.
