This is for a seasoned athlete looking to make the leap from qualifying to state to contending for medals and national meets. It's assumed the athlete has several seasons of experience with track and field and cross country under his belt. The athlete will need a good pair of trainers, and I recommend a pair of flats and spikes for workouts as well.
Hammer & Axe Training was born out of a vision shared by a handful of elite distance runners. We found in our training that we ran our best when we committed to training our speed and strength equally. A focus on strength made us durable, strong, and prepared for the adversity that racing brings. A focus on speed made us confident, efficient, and ready to move when the right moment arrived. We wanted to bring this feeling of speed and strength to as many runners as possible.
