Hi am a sprinter who is going to train myself for awhile. I hear Mr Francis is the best but I dont know were to start!
Are there any books or basic templates that I can find around here?
Thanks,
Remus
Look in the products section and buy the Charlie Francis Training System book. It’s the best starting point.
You also can learn a lot by digging through the posts on this forum. But the book gives you all the background you need. From there, you can ask more specific questions on this forum.
If you ask general questions on this forum, you’re not likely to get much response.
The best thing about this site, is the Info available.
He produces start of the art DVD’s - Starts, General pre phase - med balls - starts - weights - etc etc
He has his method of training written out in book formatt which is easy to read and understand
You might even find his book at the local library?
Everything in the book is pretty much covered in the forums already, however, if you dont know what your looking for, you wont really find it, hence, if you read the book, you will understand what it is you are looking for.
im not a sprinter, i play field sports.
i was the slowest guy on my team 2 years ago at 22years of age and got cut.
i bought the gpp essentialls dvd, CFTS pdf, an isorobic exerciser, 5kg medball, a foam roller and joined a good gym.
Now at 24 its as if im a different person/athlete. My teams MVP every game. No-one even bothers to chase me anymore!
if you start with gpp dvd (it has a lot of cfts contents in there) and work hard and smart you’ll go to a whole new level. Good luck
