Basic Training

Posted on 23:14 by omprakash
I wanted to share a quote from Arthur Lydiard who was the master coach, which sums up the basic principles that all athletes and coaches should follow

"The fundamental principle of training is simple, which may be why it needs repeating so often: it is to develop enough stamina to enable you to maintain the necessary speed for the full distance at which you compete"
