My advice to track athletes who are looking to maintain SPEED⚡️ in the extended offseason. Keep it simple. I'm including my recommended workouts here as well. Thanks @pntrack for the heavy inspiration: docs.google.com/document/d/1…

I think every fall sport/coach/league should be making three plans right now: 1) you get full summer training block 2) you get 4 week training block 3) you begin first day of practice

When this whole ordeal ends, and it will end, the next time you catch yourself saying “i HAVE to go to practice” replace it with “I GET to go to practice.” This is all a great lesson for us to appreciate what we have, where we are and who we are with.

Home workouts are a great opportunity to work on your flexibility and mobility! This is one of my favorite hip mobility circuits and it works great as a warm up on lower body days. Perform 3-5 reps on each side.

It is essential that ALL come to terms with the fact that sport is a recreational,non-essential portion of society. Fretting over missing out on attending a ball game decries the urgency in trying to eliminate a scourge, pandemic that threatens lives

It costs $0 to say “hello” to someone It costs $0 to hold a door for someone It costs $0 to tell someone you appreciate them It costs $0 to say “please” and “thank you.” It costs $0 to be kind or respectful It costs $0 to be positive and happy It costs $0 to be a GOOD PERSON!

Some of the fastest athletes I ran against in track and team sports were not strong- they were actually fairly weak from a "weight room" standpoint. Strength is important, but have to stop kidding ourselves that it is the answer to speed. Speed is the answer to speed.

Check this out. 2018. Devin Funchess got worked up, had a minor altercation with Scott Turner at practice. Funchess apologized, explained his cousin had just been killed, he was rattled. Rivera pulled him aside…
