Block Training System for endurance running

[Guest guest]

Members may be interested in Dr Verkhoshansky's new book:

http://www.verkhoshansky.com/Portals/0/Book/BTS%20in%20ER%20Index.pdf

In the 50 pages of this book you will learn the theoretical and

practical principles upon which the Block Training System for

endurance running has been developed, the results of its

experimentation, and how has been build the training model with the

description of each training means and the training programs used.

However, these principles can also be applied to develop a BTS for

other endurance sport disciplines. The author, using the basis of

this model, has developed other models for different endurance sport

disciplines: rowing, skating and skiing.

More than 20 years have passed since the beginning of the

experimentation on this training model; however, it is still

a " winning model " as demonstrated by the results of its application

in recent years.

One of most successful applications has been developed by Prof. Y.

Verkhoshansky and Oreste Perri, Italian Rowing National Team coach

(canoe, kayak).

The Italian National team, via the integration of the BTS, won ten

Olympic medals (four gold): five in Atlanta 1996, three in Sydney

2000 and two in Athens 2004.

The coaches engaged with endurance sport disciplines can find in this

publication the bases and references to develop " their own Block

Training System " .

I had the opportunity to conduct some early review and editing work of

the book material, opportunity for which I want to publicly thank to

Dr Yuri Verkhoshansky and his daughter Dr. Natalia Verkhoshansky.

The material in book in excellent in my opinion. It allows the English

speaker reader to peek into a real world usage of the Conjugate

Sequence System (Block system), and thus can greatly enhance the

understanding of CSS as developed by Dr. Verkhoshansky.

It also underlies the importance of understanding human physiology in

general, and exercise physiology in particular, when devising CSS

training program for various sports.

An excellent resource, which I recommend to all estemmed members of

the list.
