PRACTICAL PEAKING STRATEGY LONG, TRIPLE JUMP & SPRINTS (2 videos) & more

Description

Peaking for sprinting, long jump, triple jump and other power based events is the prime focus of this video - although the content will be of use to anyone working with speed and power based athletes in the main. There is also a bonus video which looks into how to plan training during the indoor season so that the athlete is not only optimsied for that but also for the subsequent training phases which lead onto the outdoor season.

The Central Nervous System is referenced in both videos so I thought it would be worth including an article on this which I wrote. This will put into context why evaluation and understanding of the role of the CNS in training planning is crucual.
