There are many different opinions about how to develop speed, but there are very few real concepts for running faster. This course will provide you with a proper foundation for speed using the conceptual framework of the Pose Method; an evidence-based, systematic approach to improving running technique. This tailored speed program will focus in on developing the components that directly correlate to speed.
Whether you’re a multi-sport athlete or a recreationalrunner, this series will help develop your speed when running to improveyour performance in your activity.
Do you know the true source of speed in running? Or how to properly build speed through training? This 4-Week Speed training program will teach you how to approach speed development as a runner and build up your speed at several different distances.
This program is divided into three sections; (1) conceptual understanding of speed, (2) drill progressions that will improve speed, and (3) 3 complete training sessions per week to take you through the practical portion of this 4-week program.

Traditionally, speed training is centered on developing muscles that aid with extension of the joints. Did you know this is actually counter-intuitive? Many of the problems with popular speed training approaches stem from coaches getting influenced by watching other fast runners. In this video, you'll learn what's wrong with this approach and what your focus should be when developing speed.
One of the foundations of Pose Method is understanding how falling is the key to running faster. In this video, you'll learn how about the correlation between falling angle and speed.
Now that you understand what's at the core of speed, its important to understand how you should structure your speed program. Watch this video to learn what components you should work on to develop speed.
This series will take you through a 4-week training program to improve your speed. In this video you'll learn how this program is structured, as well as how you can continue on with improving or maintaining your speed when you reach the end of the 4-week program.
