I was reading an article that was telling me how I should use some drills to improve my reactions on the starting block. Just what type of drills are these?

Dr. Sam Freas wrote "Sprinting - a coaches challenge" that has many reaction drills. I highly recommend this book.
One thing for starts, get a beeper that closely matches the sound of the starting beeper. Saying go DOES NOT prepare you for the sound of the starting beep.
I bought a hand held beeper that has a flash, beeper and stop watch built in.
