Customer Reviews

USA Track. This was for a grandson that is on the track team

My grandson wanted to poll vault and run track. This book is old, but as great on for the beginner. Thanks

Excellent text

This book provides great insight to a variety of training methods and should be a must for any coach, at any level. There is a level of specificity and clarity to each of the different chapters, and I am particularly caught with the ease of reading even the most technical terms. One could argue that the sprinter training developed is much more specific than the distance running, but the effort, energy and research put into this book's development is solid.

Great book

Great book for beginning coaches. Supplement it with a book that includes more info on drills and training routines.
