INTRODUCTION
Speed is the ability to execute motor actions,
under given conditions, in minimum possible
time. Speed ability is highly movement specific.
Like strength and endurance, speed is also a
conditional ability but unlike these two motor
components speed depends to a considerable
extent on the nervous system. As a result of this
speed is more complex in nature and is
comparatively less trainable. The efficiency of the
nervous system, which can be influenced only to
a limited extent, becomes a limiting factor in the
development of speed.

10-Second Barrier
It is a term used in track and field athletics
which refers to the Physical and Psychological
barrier of completing mens 100metres sprint in
under ten seconds.
Jim Hines was the first athlete to break the
10 Second barrier in 1968 at Mexico, clocking a
time of 9.95 sec. with manual timing, at the high
altitude.
Carl Lewis was the first man to run under ten
seconds at low altitude in 1983, clocking a time of
9.97 seconds.
Christophe Lemaitre from France became the
first white sprinter to run 100m in under 10

Speed Barrier
In as much as speed training involves
repeated efforts of very high intensity, after
training for some time a barrier sets in due to
establishment of neural stereotype in the
nervous system which controls spatial and
temporal aspects of movement. Because of high
intensity training, the functioning of neural
centers gets stabilized thus causing a speed
barrier leading to stagnation of performance. The
problem of speed barrier can be dealt with in the
