The Power of the Nap
The Power of the Nap “Please don’t wake me, no don’t shake me, leave me where I am, I’m only sleeping.” –The Beatles Back in 2011, former NBA great and current Brooklyn Nets coach Jason Kidd was asked the secret to his longevity, as he was in his 17th season as an all-star caliber player. “A lot of naps,” he replied. It seemed like a weird answer. You’d think he would’ve mentioned his diet, his...
Learning from the Cheetah

The ones I like most feature animals in the wild. Elephants, buffalo herds, wolves, and lions tigers and bears. Being a track coach, I often find myself looking closely at the way these animals run. Of course, because animals have four legs and we...

Raise ‘Em Up (Part II) In an article that I wrote back in 2005 entitled “Raise ‘Em Up,” I argued that the height of the hurdles in the women’s 100 meter hurdle race needed to be raised from 33 inches to 36 inches for collegiate and international competition. In that article I argued that the women’s race allows for too many technical flaws and that it favors sprinters over hurdlers. In this article, I will...

Yoga for Hurdlers: A Matter of Balance
Yoga for Hurdlers: A Matter of Balance All right hurdlers, it’s time to get your yoga on. Say what? Yoga? Heck yeah, you heard me right. Yoga. Though I’ve only dabbled in yoga myself, I’ve always been curious about the benefits that a regular yoga routine could provide for hurdlers in their training. My curiosity was initially sparked by my observation that both hurdling and yoga require the individual to put the body in positions...

[/am4guest][am4show have=’g5;’] On Sunday May 9, a “test event” took place at Olympic Stadium that involved 420 athletes, some of whom came from outside the country. One of those was American sprinter Justin Gatlin, who won the 100 meter dash. Gatlin was satisfied with the protocols and felt that the event served as a precursor to how the 2021 version of the Games would...

[/am4guest][am4show have=’g5;’] A question that came up during the clinic was, If the athlete isn’t hitting the times you want him or her to hit, should you increase the rest period or should you adjust the target times? I say, increase the rest period, so that you can still have a chance of getting the quality...
