Unfortunately, we had to cancel practice again today (Monday, the 27th). The plus side, is that by now, you should have a good idea of some things that you could do on your own to keep your edge sharp. Dont miss an opportunity to get better. Sprinters: --Easy jog. You could literally run in place for 10 minutes, or jump rope for 10 minutes to get a similar HR elevation. --Dynamics --some plyometric type work. (Squat jumps, lunge jumps, tuck jumps, single leg jumps, etc.). --Do some core work (you have a number of different routines you could use) --Preventive routine (never hurts to develop muscular structures to prevent injury) Distance: --Easy jog and then either repeat workout or fartlek run. --If you can get to a treadmill, do 5-8x quarter-miles, with on a 2-4 minute interval. If you cant get to a treadmill, then do something similar to what I just mentioned for the sprinters. --Get some kind of core work in. --Preventive routine Jumpers: --10 min easy run, jumprope, or run in place --Some plyometric/explosive type work mentioned above. --Core work --preventive routine Throwers: --Runthrouhgs of footwork mechanics --Body/Core routines --Pushup and Dip routines |
