Speed Camp Review
Last week we finished up our first round of speed camps. We had one on the week of June 28th and another on July 5th. These 6 day immersions in to speed training and sprinting mechanics were a big success. Students learned the finer details of acceleration mechanics, drills for improving speed and training tips for speed and power development. Video reviews using high speed video footage was used extensively to improve the technique of the attendees. The smaller class sizes ensured that every athlete received a lot of attention and improved to the greatest extent possible. We timed each person’s 10m and 30m times on the first day of camp and the last day of camp. Over just 6 days we saw average improvements of 0.16 seconds for 10m and 0.36 seconds for 30m. That’s game breaking speed improvement!
We will be hosting speed camps throughout the year and look forward to hosting our next one in mid August. Thanks to all those who attended.
