Training Plans
In addition to your training we can provide detailed training plans. You will receive a long term plan which will give an overview of your
whole training period up to the start of your event and throughout your training season. You will receive weekly plans with each session
written in detail for you to carry out. These will be reviewed on a weekly basis making sure you are meeting your aims.
Training plan prices vary and are based on the number of weeks you require one for. Please discuss this at your initial meeting.
Location
The strength and conditioning training will take place at our studio and outdoor training area. The sprinting sessions will be either at our
outdoor area, nearby field or Blackbridge Jubilee athletics track in Gloucester. The location is dependant on your personal preference.
Technique
Improve your technique to make your running more efficient and quicker. Technique
plays a big part in sprinting as you can waste a lot of energy and not make optimal
use of the forces you’re creating.
We will work on all areas of your technique to improve your acceleration and
maximum speed. We will use numerous methods to do this e.g. video analysis,
specific sprint drills and running technique movement patterns.
Strength and Conditioning
Strength and conditioning plays a big part in your sprinting as you need the required
strength, power and speed to sprint at your maximum pace.
It isn’t just about lifting weights but also plyometrics, agility, mobility and motor skills.
It helps reduce the chance of getting injured by working on your body’s ability to deal
with the forces you will face, uneven surfaces and directional changes. You will
improve your strength to give you the ability to train to produce more force at a
quicker rate. Your running posture will improve as your core and trunk gets stronger.
