Becoming a Champion Sprinter - Beyond the Basics

with Ken Harnden,
Florida State University Assistant Coach (Sprints);
2005 NCAA National Assistant Coach of the Year (Sprints)

Coach Harnden takes athletes to the next level in our latest addition of our best selling Becoming a Champion series. This presentation on sprinting begins with a series of effective warm-up drills that Harnden has used successfully for many years. A series of components for starting are covered in detail along with "keys to remember." The 3 x 30 drill is a sprint drill that covers the drive phase and leads into the turnover phase. The last 30 emphasizes the lift and run motion with hands near the face. Harnden includes strategy for short sprints and the 400M. In addition, Harnden breaks down proper baton exchange techniques. Instead of static stretching, Coach Harnden takes you into the weight room to share the exercises that prepare his athletes for successful track competition.
