WEEK SIX WORKOUTS
I have NOT updated running workouts as they have been designed to work athletes through the offseason and MOST (if NOT ALL) or our athletes have been following the workouts. I have the old workouts up still, but you should be running four days a week for 30 minutes a day to get in shape for the season. Some drill and technique work would help, but much of the workouts will HURT rather than help you if you have not followed the program. If you have any questions talk to your specific coach. Thrower and Vaulter workouts have been updated to increase intensity.
Week 4: 1/28-2/2 (WORKOUT HAVE BEEN UPDATED FOR WEDNESDAY-FRIDAY FOR THE 800/400, SPRINTS and HURDLES - MAKE SURE YOU MAKE THE CHANGES)

Remember this can be as easy or as hard as you want it to be depending on how hard you’re working and how much focus you put into it. The harder the effort and more focus you have, the greater/faster the results. The more intense moves will also increase difficulty.
