REVIEW: "From 800 meters up to the marathon," Jack Daniels

"Ten Steps relaxed... Ten steps to force... Twenty Steps relaxed... Twenty Steps to the effort... A hundred steps relaxed... One hundred steps with an effort "- is one of my most effective mantra for training and taught me that Jack Daniels

Joan Benoit-Samuelson
The first Olympic champion in marathon

In the second edition of the book "From 800 meters to Marathon»(Daniel's Running Formula) Jack Daniels, publishing house "Mann, Ivanov and Ferber"Described physiology running from A to Z, VDOT table (maximum amount of oxygen consumed per minute) graphics, schedule training for experienced athletes who are preparing for a competition, and for beginners in running. The book will delight all lovers of graphs, tables and formulas - all who do not like to rely on the off chance and prefers precise calculations and forecasts.
The first book was published in 1988 and still it remains one of the most popular among his "colleagues".

Book feature is that you do not need to read it from cover to cover. It is made so that anyone reading it is the part which describes the method of training required: beginners will not need osilivat Chapters training for professional athletes and coaches, and experienced runners will not waste time reading training for beginners. Most importantly - read the first part of "Fundamentals training", and then choose what you need at this very moment.

For beginners and those who put down his jogging as a result of trauma or other external circumstances, strongly recommend that you read the second and third parts of the book - "Levels of training" and "Wellness training". The latter is divided by levels ranging from the lightest, the White plan starting and ending the Yellow Elite plan.

If you have long been in love with running and doing so seriously that take part in the competition, then you need the latest, the fourth part - "Training for competition." It is painted in detail the plans and instructions for the preparation for a competition run from 800 meters to complete the marathon.

"The main reason for writing my book on the run - is an attempt to simplify the terminology and methodology training to the same types of exercises can be used by all categories of runners - from beginner to elite.

When I decided to become a runner himself - after a few years in high school and college was engaged in swimming - I've found that most of the Council on the organization of training comes from coaches, trainers tell others about how they prepared their stars and Champions. Training program for the stars were perfectly applicable to the preparation of the entry-level runners and even those involved in running seriously, but did not come out for another level of higher results.

I myself was not an elite runner, as the first of my wards, I began training to become a coach in college. Lack of techniques pushed me to find scientific bases of training. "

I would say that Jack Daniel's - a sports layfhaker, who decided not to act according to the rules and maim themselves and the athletes (the strongest will survive), and decided to change what was in his opinion unjustly. And he did it could not be better;)
