5. Training and Sport Medicine

 


We would like to share with you how we train and take care of ourselves for this challenge
·         Sean Wade is the www.kenyanway.com  coach.
The Kenyan way is a training program for runners of any level.  We run hills on Mondays, speed workouts on   Wednesdays and long runs on Saturdays.   
Sean’s famous sentence is: “negative split is your best friend”
 ·         Dr. Daniel deWalch, Kyle Fraser and Ashley Kinnard at http://www.fixmysportsinjury.com/
I am very well impressed by their FAST-R5 Method, the work ethic, professionalism, knowledge, the time they spend with us in every single visit.  Dr. D and his team really care about patients.
On top of this, they are helping us to get healthier, stronger and faster.  
·         Tony Lewis and Juan Jaramillo are the best Boot Camp trainers at http://www.ymcahouston.org/trotter-family/
What can we say about Tony and Juan?  Be there on time, enjoy the workout.  We go from Monday through Friday at 5:30 am. We do agility drills, plyometrics, core training, running, and strength.

Training is very important as all of you can imagine, since I have never been a sport person, for me training is a must, and also, I have to tell mysfelf every run that I know I will do it. Once in a while mi mind wants to play dirty with me...., I have to fight back.... I have to finish.

Take your training schedule into another level with additional workouts.  Here is part of what we do:
 Cross-Training
In between running days, do 30 to 45 minutes of nonimpact cardio, like cycling, swimming at moderate intensity, or focusing on your core and lower body  such a  push-ups, lunges, and squats. This is our Boot-Camp class

Hills
Run around 4 to 8 uphill sprints: Run fast uphill. Jog easy downhill; repeat.  We do it for approximate 25 minutes. This one is really hard for me, that why I know I have to do it, because it will give strength.

 Intervals
Run 4 to 8 bursts at a faster pace for 90 seconds, and then jog easy for at least two minutes to recover; repeat.
