The iliopsoas is trickly to train because it is smaller, delicate and prone to fatigue if overworked. The best way to approach it : First, restore mobility. If you sit a lot, your iliopsoas is in shorten position. Loosen it up with daily hip flexor stretches before you even think about strengthening.
Second, train with high reps and low resistance. This muscle is designed for endurance and quicker contractions, not max effort load like a squat.
Think volume and speed, not brute force. Third, use resistance bands whenever possible. Bands allow smooth loading throughout the movement, mimicking sprint mechanics more naturally then cables and machines.
Here are a few exercises I personally recommend;
Banded Hip flexor raises (3x5-20 reps)
Hanging knee drives (3x10-15 reps each leg)
Seated banded marches (2x20 reps per side)
I can assure if you commit to this consistently, you'll strengthen the muscle that many sprinters overlook and you'll be one step closer to unlocking elite stride turnover.
