Change is Critical

Welcome everyone and let's get started...change of seasons always brings new life and spirit. Some sports are writing the final chapter, while others are just getting out of the box. Re, your practice drills, sequence, timing and time of day...what have you changed, added or deleted. Remember previous seasons...you had 1, 2, 3 areas to improve,. Did you take care of that "home work?" Well, your next event will demand to see your home work. This is the ideal time to take care of those (areas to work on) now...with muscle confusion drills. Change those bad habits before they get worse. When drills become mechanical, boredom sets in, then 'rigormortis.' Change that. Bring on your best year ever. Get started with discipline. . Jimmy O www.secondwindwindfitnessfilm.com

Impact

Welcome and let's get started...every so often we need to shake things up. Get out the cobwebs. When fall into that "comfort zone" when training becomes easy...time to step out of the zone and challenge ourselves. Change our routine. This is what so many of us do. 20/30 min. high impact drills. After a 30 min. warm up, we speed up certain drills we have preselected drills and perhaps add 2/3 drills. At most a 30 sec. rest between drills. Need at least 5 drills for this shakeup time. You can't quit until finished. followed by 30 min. cool down...includes a 5 min. walk. You should feel exhausted...but feeling great. Warning! If you are new to your training program...stay away from this high impact program. Jimmy O www.secondwindfitnessfilm.com

Finding Your Rythem

Welcome everyone and let's get started...some of the same measures we use in horses, we use in our training. In the animal world we also use "gait." We work with horse's gait in all performance drills...from race to jumping. We talk about 'hitting a wall' in all of our different events. There is more than one wall. Many experience a 'wall' in warm ups. Work through that first wall. Don't ignore it. Wake up your brain. Work through it. You may experience a wall even at the start of your event, don't give in. Then, with any where from 400m. or less, a wall that most talk about. The walls are more mental than physical. If you continue to experience walls...you have fallen into the trap of "self induced" program. That's right...you are talking yourself into it. This wall can happen in the weight room, bedroom, driving a car, etc. Tear down the wall.   www.secondwindfitnessfilm.com

Less is Better

Welcome and let's get started...those who have learned the hard way have a great story to tell. Whether you are an occasional workout personal or a daily grunter, most start a program with a flurry drills and training. Results...injury, burnout, loss of self confidence. A pointer...what are you good at...your talents and skill. Apply those skills to the type of workout you need to get better/stronger. Caution applies to the weight room, Trac and Field, any sport or fitness exercise. Rehab is a B*-**h. I have seen too many athletes and fitness men and women CRASH...to a do nothing. Angry. That is not a good direction to take...to live with. Focus and patience...a requirement. Use but don't abuse your body. You only have one. www.secondwindfitnessfilm.com
