There are protocols based on solid research and practice which form the basis of an effective training programme, but it's important not to rule out certain things which may be of benefit to certain riders.
Because of an imbalance or physical issue, someone may really benefit from an isolation exercise (such as curls) that 98% of track sprinters may never do. Additionally you might find that a block of interval training designed to increase a pursuiter's stamina at speed might be the very thing that a keirin rider or 3rd man in team sprint needs to help his speed endurance.
Anyway, chatting this shit on forums isn't going to help anyone unless they go and work for a reasonable period of time with a good coach.
