Develop Break-Away Speed
This is how I use a sled push to teach my athletes how to get in better positions when they accelerate.
It’s all about being more efficient with your movements, making sure no movement is wasted (we call this energy leak)
Give this drill a go next time you’re at the gym.
Focus on pulling your big toe up, straight torso and getting to 90 degree on that front side knee.

Need to get fitter? Avoid this mistake.
The biggest mistake I see athletes make when they train fitness, is a lack of direction.
So let me help you out.
What sort of fitness are you needing?
+60mins slow and steady?
2min efforts, with short recovery?
10sec burst that you repeat?
Because how we train determines what we get good at.
I’m not here to tell you which on is best, that’s for you to decide.
For my athletes we work on all of these throughout the full training year. We focus more on slow and steady during the off-season, then ramp up the intensity as we hit pre-season.
What do you need to work on at the moment?
