How to Shatter Your Personal
Bests in the Sprints, Hurdles, Jumps and Throws

Discover the Training Secrets of Champion Track & Field Athletes

 

ATTENTION SPRINTERS, HURDLERS, JUMPERS, THROWERS & COACHES::

If you want to get better in the sprints, hurdles, jumps and/or throws, you’ll need to change the way you approach your training.

Picture the last big meet you competed in…

When you think about it, the best athletes in your events do things differently than everyone else, don’t they?

They warm up differently. (Like they have a specific plan and purpose…)

They do different drills. (And they do them better than you do…)

They do complicated drills you’ve never seen before and probably can’t do. (Like they know something you don’t know…)

And that’s just what you see at meets.

Here’s the truth:

There are specific things you should be doing in practice and at meets. Things you’re probably not doing. Things the best athletes already know and do on a regular basis. That’s one of the main reasons why they’re beating you.

But you can put an end to that. Starting today.

If you want to stay ahead of the competition or close the gap on people you know you can beat, you’ll want to know what the best sprinters and jumpers do. And start doing it too. And doing it better.

Waiting for everyone to arrive!

Because if you don’t, those people you’re just edging out now will start beating you. Those people who keep placing one or two spots ahead of you will be totally out of reach.

Why work so hard every day just to stay frustrated about not seeing consistent results or consistent improvements? The answers to your training questions are right in front of you!

If you’re ready to step up to the next level and find out exactly how much better you can sprint, hurdle, jump and throw, then you need to register for the 2012 New England Track & Field Clinic.

To ensure each athlete gets enough individual attention, we will limit the number of athletes in each event group. Each of the last two years we’ve had to stop taking new registrations upwards of four weeks before the clinic. And this year will be no different. Registrations are taken on a ‘first come, first serve’ basis, so register today to ensure you don’t get put on the waiting list.

Once an event group fills up, we will not add any more athletes. No exceptions!
