95: Rob Assise "Modern Jump and Sprint Training for Track and Field" | Sponsored by SimpliFaster


Listen Later

Today’s episode features Rob Assise, track and field coach at Homewood-Flossmoor High School in the greater Chicago area.  Rob has been an accomplished writer in the last year, and has been a highly successful coach on the track and field level. His progressive workouts have netted him great success, as Homewood-Flossmoor has been a force on the state track and field level in Illinois.  

Specifically for Just Fly Sports, Rob has written “10 Low-Hanging Fruits to Grab for Optimal Performance”.  He has also been a speaker for one of the mecca’s of track and field training, the Track-Football Consortium, and will be speaking at the next iteration this June.  

Like Tony Holler, Rob has gone from a more volume oriented approach that he trained under, to a more progressive, low volume approach that more and more track coaches are utilizing, not only to help athletes to new personal bests, but also to make track and field more fun and engaging for the athlete.   To me, it is both Rob’s knowledge and creativity that make him someone I love to sit down and talk training with. One of the biggest game changers for me that Rob mentioned was doing curvilinear sprints for his track and field jumpers, which is just the tip of the iceberg in the many cutting edge methods he employs with his athletes.  

On today’s podcast, Rob talks about his background, training philosophy, speed and plyometric methods, weightroom concepts, the “constraint based” jump training system (a real gem) and more.

Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster.com, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more.
