The aim of the study was to assess the strength-speed profile of Senegalese 400-metre runners who qualified for the national championships. Using the My Sprint test on a sample of 18 athletes, various measures such as maximum speed, theoretical maximum strength and maximum power were assessed. The results reveal an imbalance in the strength-speed profile of the athletes, with strength values significantly lower than those for speed. This disparity is attributed to training that favours speed over strength. To improve the performance of 400 metre runners, it is crucial to balance these two parameters, as a more balanced profile between strength and speed is associated with better performance. Particular attention should therefore be paid to strengthening the strength component to optimise the performance of athletes in this discipline.
