In this segment, Tony Veney discusses how coaches can modify short hurdle workouts to train athletes for long hurdles, particularly when faced with limited space or adverse weather conditions. He emphasizes the importance of adjusting recovery times and increasing sets and repetitions to build athletes' capacity and stamina. Veney suggests implementing "down and backs" or setting up hurdles at shorter intervals to simulate race conditions and help athletes adapt to varying wind conditions. By training in adverse weather and challenging circumstances, athletes learn to manage their step patterns and adjust their approach, ultimately enhancing their performance in the 300-meter hurdles. Veney stresses the need for athletes to maintain a sprinting mindset and avoid jumping over hurdles, focusing instead on maintaining an elongated sprint stride for efficient hurdle clearance. Overall, the segment highlights the importance of adapting training strategies to prepare athletes for the demands of long hurdle races, regardless of the prevailing conditions.
