Need help with SPEED!

interval speed training..
do it either on a bag at different points in bursts of 200 rep sprints and shoot for different angles or destinations of your strike... do the different spots you want to strike as their own sets and then chop it up and mix them in to varied strike destination sprints of around 30 seconds each or 200 reps.
if you don't have acess to a bag, use a wall for a focus point. don't actually make contact but use the wall as your opponent and try to aim for diffrent places on what would be their body. It's a shame you don't know pressure points ( or do you??) ..awwwesome way to do that..
I think amazon.com has some really good charts available for maybe $30.. I can't tell you the difference it makes to your speed and game in general..having that better focus of where you're landing things exactly to a fine precision is a great tool. google on Earle Montaigues Dimmak charts.. if you're interested and can't find it,i'll get you a direct url later..i was going to re-order them myself soon anyway..
If you can get hold of an abdoer aswell ( , doing sitting lateral twisting the same sets and sprint pace, varying as above is another extremely effective way to work your speed drills... and you get 12.5kg resistance on each rep.
they cost $300 aus ish but definately worth the purchase.
cheers

What sort of speed are u talking about cos no1 has even asked yet. are you talking about the speed of 1 particular attack, overall speed, or reaction speed?
you can increase your speed of a particular movement by not only practicing it, but by practising the motion before and after it aswell.
Your speed will improve when your body learns to flow into the motions you want it to, and doesnt have to wait around for your brain to tell it what to do.
Weight training is also important, Not just for getting stronger, but so that you are farmiliar with pulling and pushing heavy weights.
