Speed training

Common to both me and the Great Dell, is a lack of speed.
Best types of speed training to increase speed over a 40m distance?
And would bigger quads/calves slow you down or increase your speed?
 
Speed is chiefly determined by the capacity to apply a large amount of force in a short period of time.
strong quadriceps will help you extend your knee farther
Do not focus on one or a few muscle groups. Focus on the core: Foot, Achilles, Calves, Hamstrings, Quads, Gluets, Back and Abdominal , they all play a part in speed

Weave In/Weave Out sprint will increase agility
ladder drills will also help
some quick short dashes about 5reps with about 45secs break between each rep
