Description
�ROCKET FUEL FOR SPRINTERS� is the seventh course of an ambitious Feed the Cats Certification Program created by Tony Holler.
Feed the Cats is a revolutionary way of training, coaching, and teaching that values specificity, essentialism, performance, and love. After gaining a world-wide following in Track & Field, FTC has now gained a foothold in American football.
�ROCKET FUEL FOR SPRINTERS� is the first FTC course from a guest presenter, Coach Kyle Edwards. One of the most important features of Feed the Cats is the world-wide network of coaches who have bought into the idea of prioritizing speed and explosiveness while de-empathizing conditioning, toughness, and high volume workouts. The focus on well-rested, happy, and healthy athletes is truly a departure from the grind of the traditional approach.
�ROCKET FUEL FOR SPRINTERS� gives the background needed to adopt the �Do Less, Achieve More� fundamentals needed to understand minimalist sprint training. The goal of the course is to give the off-season athlete everything they need to begin to indirectly train speed. The direct way to train speed is the subject of the first course, �The Speed Workout�.
Coach Kyle Edwards adds �rocket fuel� to the X-Factor catalog found in the second most popular course in the series, �FTC-102 X-Factor�. X-Factor includes drills and exercises that athletes should do when they are not sprinting (only sprint three times a week). Since X-Factor work is creative and changes from workout to workout, FTC coaches are always looking for new things to do and Coach Kyle delivers!
Along with �FTC-102 X-Factor�, �ROCKET FUEL FOR SPRINTERS� is a must for coaches heading into winter training. Nothing you will see on these videos requires a track. Everything can be done in a hallway, gymnasium, or any open space you can find.
More courses are on the way!
