Feed the Cats: Top Explosive Exercises that Increase Speed

Description

“X-FACTOR” is the second course of an ambitious “Feed the Cats certification program created by Tony Holler.

Feed the Cats is a revolutionary way of training, coaching, and teaching that values specificity, essentialism, performance, and love. After gaining a world-wide following in Track & Field, FTC has now gained a foothold in American football.

“X-FACTOR” gives the background needed to adopt the “Do Less, Achieve More” fundamentals needed to understand minimalist sprint training. The goal of the course is to give the off-season athlete everything they need to begin to indirectly train speed. The direct way to train speed is the subject of the first course, “The Speed Workout”. The videos are simple, detailed, and reproducible. Workouts can be done solo. With the crazy circumstances surrounding the pandemic, athletes may find this course to be exactly what they are looking for and the perfect companion to “The Speed Workout”.

More courses are on the way!

Fantastic course! I implemented the "Feed the Cats" program with our girls varsity soccer team over the summer. I was amazed at the results the ladies had with their 40 yard timed sprints. Our fastest athlete going into the season took .31 off her 40 and our most improved took a full second off her 40! This course details the X-Factor training. The techniques and drills are great for explosive strength. This a great program if your athletes do not have a lot of equipment, space or if you're in an area where you can't train sprints until later in the season due to snow & ice. I highly recommend this program if you're looking to improve speed, agility, and proper technique for your athletes. Your athletes will be faster, stronger and have more fun during practice.

To enhance my knowledge of speed and sprinting for a multitude of sports, specifically to use with the youth teams I coach now and hopefully High School team in the future.
