Running Mechanics Intermediate Training Programme

This Running strength and conditioning training program will focus specifically on running mechanics training systems to:

 

• DS Performance training programs are designed to run alongside a skill/sport-specific based training plan. Our programs provide sessions for 3 days of training a week, to alternate between your skill/sport-specific training sessions.

 

• Our 12-week strength and conditioning training program are broken down into 2 x 6-week cycles, with a de-loading between the two training blocks. This will allow the body to recover, prepare you for the second training phase and reduce any risk of injury.          

 

• Along with your training program this book contains a supporting guide to mobility training. This guide uses myofascial release, static stretching, and activation work to mobilize the major body parts used in training.  

 

• Designed to reduce the risk of injury and avoid bad training habits through our sport-specific training programs. We provide training programs designed by ex-team GB athletes and coaching staff that have practical and applied experience through a wide range of individual and team-based sports.      

 

• Our program has been developed to bring elite training methods to everyone, from all levels of sporting ability. Our mission is to make training programs utilized by professional athletes available to all sporting enthusiasts and performers.

The intermediate training level is for when you have conditioned the body to train at a higher intensity, but you are still not ready for the competition phase of training. This level of programmes bridges the gap between general conditioning and competition phase of training, to achieve your optimal performance. 

 

Your running mechanics are vital to your performance and its long term development. The fastest runners are all very good technically and this is why we have provided a range of programmes to develop your mechanics. 

 

The running mechanics programmes are designed to develop your skills as a runner, and all the physical movement patterns required for strong mechanics. Strong development in your mechanics will bring an increase in efficiency to your technique, which will then give you a longer stride length and reduce the risk of any over use injury.

 

The running mechanics programmes are perfect for runners of all ages and abilities. The programmes can be used throughout your training calendar, the continuing ongoing development of your running technique should be focused on weekly in every running session.
