This exercises is for all you athletes that love to wear crocs, slides, flip flops, slippers, and sandals. You have shin splints or plantar fascia because your arch drop so the weight is not being distributed evenly. Strengthen the muscles in your. ⛔ wearing them.
All athletes are a work in progress... Here we are trying to teach them how to transfer power horizontally for the blocks, pushing instead of stepping out of the blocks.
Coaches don’t be surprised if your athletes can’t hop on and off one leg… Many are not being taught this locomotor skill in elementary any more so they lack the strength and coordination to do it.
One thing about track & field is that it’s straightforward. Times, heights, distances, and video don’t lie. It doesn’t care about your personal feelings. Can you perform or not?
When we first started doing these the boxes were 12 feet apart and she could barely do all 6. Now we are at 15 feet apart doing all 6. I never told her that I added more feet. The key is to cycle down and attack the ground to pop up, don’t just drop down with a straight leg.
Our 4x8 handoffs are the same as the 4x4. We keep our eyes on the incoming runner. No 1-2-3 steps look, too much can happen. I need your eyes on the baton.
Landmine squats provide less physical demand and stress on your joints, as opposed to a conventional back or front squat. Landmine squats also focus on proper form, which can help improve range of motion.

4x400 relay splits should be off the line and not the handoff. Coaches doing a disservice to the kids by giving them a split for only 350m of work. That's why doing handoffs and running through the zone like the other relays are important.
Klein Forest kid ran 20.3 after running the 4x2. Hmmm 🤔
Those that say you can't do it, don't know how to train their kids to go back to back.
Mad we didn’t get this beautiful weather.

Track season doesn’t end when school track does. Get out there and compete in club track. You still have plenty of meets to hit the marks you’re aiming for.
What an amazing year your Bulldogs had this year. Many school records and PR's were set & broken. Our team will miss all the seniors that are graduating. Thank you to the amazing coaching staff. Great work this year. 6th in the state, 3rd in the region, and co area champs!

Track & field is by far the cheapest sport to participate in for club sports. You don’t need to be attached to a club to run. Run in your compression top and bottoms.
Coach O has all the meets online for AAU.

Entry fee each week $12-$15
