Sprint Power

Sinopse

Sprint Power challenges the notion that sprinting ability is solely genetic, asserting that dedicated training and informed techniques are equally crucial. This book explores acceleration and top-end speed enhancement through focused sprint drills, force production techniques, and resistance training, improving running mechanics and power. Interestingly, understanding ground reaction forces—how athletes interact with the ground—is key to generating effective propulsion.

 
The book systematically guides the reader, starting with fundamental concepts like stride length and frequency. It then progresses to practical sprint drills for coordination and agility, followed by the science of force production and explosive strength exercises. Finally, it integrates resistance training methods directly relevant to sprint performance. This holistic approach, combining technique, power, and strength, is what sets Sprint Power apart, offering a data-driven roadmap for athletes and coaches striving for optimal speed.
