Tony coined “Feed the Cats” 20 years ago. It began with the realization that jumpers and sprinters were fast-twitch athletes, like cats.

The Ten Commandments of “Feed the Cats”

 Do high quality work with maximum focus over the least amount of time possible

 Prioritize rest, recovery, and growth; never underestimate the power of being happy and healthy

 Never forget – people naturally are good at what they like and are OBSESSED with what they love

 Promote your program with unrestrained enthusiasm

 “Record, Rank, and Publish” to feed the competitive nature of your fast-twitch athletes

 Never force-feed

 Never grind

 Never crush the physical or emotional soul of your athletes

 Never inflict physical punishment – punish only by taking away the opportunity to do the work

 Never forget, “Light a fire, don’t fill a pail.”

The workshop will be split into both theory and practical elements.  You will gain an insight into Tony's philosophy of how he trains speed and develops skills in acceleration and max velocity. Tony will also cover the different ways of how he trains explosive and elastic actions, that transfer into acceleration and max velocity. He will demonstrate the skills and drills that challenge coordination and how he incorporates RPR into his training.

He believes in building his athletes by developing efficiency in their movements, developing the capacity fo the nervous system and developing technical endurance through the above elements. This method and philosophy has proved very successful in developing his High School Athletes from 11.0s runners to 10.3 runners.
