KEYS TO SUCCESS

To begin each Speed Parachute session you will want to complete a quick warm up. Include the Arm Action and Single Leg Drive Drill before you get started. Walk off the distances and be sure that you evaluate the wind conditions for beginning. A strong cross wind will make it difficult to maintain consistent resistance. Also be aware of your running surface. You will want to complete the long distance sprints on a flat surface. As you reach max speed an uneven surface may cause injury. Also allow for rest between each sprint so that maximum intensity can be achieved.
