Initial screening and testing: Assessment
This assessment will allow us to review your running technique, flexibility and strength, as well as gather some simple testing data as a starting point for your program. This gives us the opportunity to chat to you about your long and short term goals in sport, injury history, competition dates and training workload. The assessment includes:

  • Jock Athletic running singlet
  • Report
  • Discounts at Runnulla and Nuzest

 

For the serious athlete: Strength training

To maximise your running potential, all runners should also include strength training in their overall program. This will provide core, glute and hip stability which are needed for stride efficiency, strength and power for running. See our Gym Program for more details.
