“Track practice” was a great thing to attend in the 1980s & 1990s. However, simply “going to track practice” is not sufficient to fully develop today’s nationally-elite track athletes.
Stampede Track Club believes that today’s nationally-elite young track athletes require Training Sessions that include an elite Technical Speed Training Program to fully realize their potential (and be competitive at the Jr. Olympics and beyond).
Stampede Track Club’s National Team is home to several nationally-elite young track athletes (including approximately a dozen that achieved Top 10 finishes at the 2009 Jr. Olympics, and five that were involved in the setting of national or state records). Stampede provides them with what it believes is the best Technical Speed Training Program among youth track clubs in the U.S.
Stampede’s Technical Speed Training Program is designed and coached by the Michael Johnson Performance Center (including Michael himself). Stampede wanted its Technical Speed Training Program to be led by nationally-recognized experts who have high credentials, and extensive experience coaching technical speed for world-class track athletes at successful collegiate track programs.
Why? Because not all ‘speed trainers’ are created equal. The Michael Johnson Performance Center is committed 24/7 to the study and understanding of the latest developments and research in the area of technical speed and performance. Elite track athletes from all over the world call on MJPC to receive technical speed and performance training. Stampede ensures that members of its National Team benefit from this training, as well.
Shaping the young athlete’s “competitive mentality” is also an important part of Technical Speed Training. Stampede’s National Team members are also coached on this aspect of competition by both Stampede’s coaching staff and MJPC (including Michael himself).
Stampede is extremely proud of the Technical Speed Training Program that it offers nationally-elite track athletes, and believes that it offers those athletes the absolute best opportunity to get the most out of their God-given abilities.
