Evolving Your Flooring To Take Control Of Seasonality

by | Feb 2024 | 0 comments

Join Prep Strength Coach and Jonathan Hill, Head Cross Country and Track & Field Coach for Central Washington University, on a journey to the Pacific Northwest, where we uncover a unique approach to athletic training during the winter months. In this video, we delve into the challenges and opportunities of maintaining speed and power when the cold sets in. Discover why the local running community, renowned for its endurance training, traditionally shifts focus away from speed and power training during this period.

Our expert discusses the significance of bringing a 12-month comprehensive speed and power sprint training program back to this region. Learn about the strategic use of indoor facilities to achieve high-level training results, overcoming the limitations posed by winter weather. The video highlights the advantages of training on a Mondo surface, a premier option in sprinting, known for its firmness that aids in reducing ground contact time and improving stride frequency.

Understand the science behind sprinting mechanics, including the importance of ground contact time and limb recovery, and how a firmer surface can enhance nervous system response times. This insightful discussion is not just for athletes but for anyone interested in the dynamics of high-performance training and how environmental factors can be turned into an advantage.

Get ready to be inspired and informed about maximizing your training potential, regardless of the season!
