          I sprint 3 times per week. Is good?

          1 acceleration workout (4-6x 30m full speed)

          1 top speed workout (flying 30-50m … gradual speed build up for 20m then 30-50m full speed)

          1 60m workout (generally 4-6x 60m at full capacity, 6-10 min. between runs)

          Looks like a good workout to supplement the on field running you get for soccer. You might want to consider adding or substituting in a workout that has short sprints with shorter rest intervals to better prepare you for the constant bursts of speed needed in a game like soccer.

          I don't understand what you mean. What I was recomending would be something like 15-20 x 30m with 45 seconds recovery.
