Secret Track And Field Training Stretch Exercise
This is a secret technique I did in my Track Star days which I have never made mention of or ever bothered to tell anyone about. Now I cannot say if it helped me to stay undefeated for 4-consecutive seasons or not, indeed all I can say is it is yet one more component of a serious athlete.
There is something I use to do to train that no one else did, that I just made up, I never told anyone else. What I would do is start out at the 50 yard line and run, but I would drag one leg as a balance and make the other leg do all the work, by bringing the good leg knee up high and pushing off really hard and then accelerating on the grass of a football field.
You have to pump your leg in use really hard to do it and still accelerate. Then switch off and do the other leg. I use to do this for a warm up about 50-75 yards at a time (3-4 sets) and a couple of times in the middle of the work out, it seemed to stretch the muscles and strengthen them. Sometimes I would do this while out jogging on soft terrain, trails or grass. Think on that, see if it works for you.
The reason I just now have remembered this, was because I was reading up on the “Plyometrics” stuff last night that while working on a running book
Maybe that might be a little secret to remember? I certainly hope this article is of interest and that is has propelled thought. The goal is simple; to help you in your quest to be the best in 2007. I thank you for reading my many articles on diverse subjects, which interest you.
