Off Season Training Program Help

guest — Wed, 06 Feb 2008 16:33:00 GMT

So for my capstone (kinda like a senior project but not necassarily for seniors. i'm only a sophomore) I am doing an off season work out program for my cross country team. I am planning to work on base and core, mainly. The problem is, my team kind of sucks and has no motivation. So how can I get them to attend, and make it fun? And what exercises should I use? I am going to do this for about 6 weeks over the summer.

btw weird new format for forums. i haven't been on here in a while

I came up with:
Dumber (bad choice)
Stupider
Slower (obvious issues here)

If I had said less intelligent (or smart, clever, etc) that would have just given the sentence and academic tone. It was supposed to be punchy.

That is all.

geez big words. i think your just tryin to sound smart now. i dont doubt you are smart, that was just kinda overkill
im an honors student and im on xc so i guess i fit the rules.

i agree with the first part of that, but running does not require less athletic ability than those other sports. it may require less skill, such as hand eye coordination, but it needs just as much athletic ability, if not more

this might explain why i can't seem to break a 6 minute mile pace for a 5k (dont laugh i live in middletown, rhode island; 6 minute miles are pretty fast here). Neither of my parents, or for that matter anyone i got any genetics from are runners. I guess im just kind of an oddball in the family.
