DO YOU AGREE ????
Speed
can defeat strategy, skill or dedication in sports. Winners don’t hesitate to
“cut the ring” (Limit
Directions) and
increase their speed when opponents slow down to cut and fake. Boys &
girls never reach their peak speed until they can stand, extend either
leg forward, maintain, balance and do 10 full squats. We guarantee that anyone
can pass this “speed” test in 8 to 12 weeks by training as directed in the Raw
Speed shoes and program.

THE SECRET TO INCREASING “SPEED” IS
LOGICAL TRAINING.
It’s impossible to increase speed without taking
longer running strides quicker! That’s not logical to do by training
with stationary weights or exercises, resistance, running over distance,
bleachers, hills, sand etc because: They only work a few muscles at once
in a limited range or change running form and technique. Plus these boring and
exhausting tools and methods cause bad “speed” training attitudes because:
They’re used for punishment and take years for “questionable” results. The
logic of Raw Speed training can make any boy or girl run faster in
weeks, not years. Guaranteed!
In 1970 a few Coaching Pioneers accidentally learned to
increase “speed” and while trying to reduce sports injuries. Their goal was to
improve strength and other skills with UN-restricted running / jumping drills
common to all sports. They invented platform shoes to provide “leverage” that
allows athletes to lift their own body weight countless times while running with
correct form. i.e. Each stride starts a “ripple action” in the foot / ankle
plantar flex (where speed begins) and spreads up the body like waves when a rock hits water. All running
muscles, ligaments & tendons are constantly stretched, strengthened and
conditioned to reduce injuries and increase “speed” at the
same time. Athletes run faster or fall because it’s like running
“down hill”. Especially when they run with intensity.
Science can’t explain
sports performance intensity! i.e. How some boxers hit with such intense power
and speed their opponent’s cloths are out of style when they wake up. We
use the logic of isometric exercise to develop sports performance
intensity. (It’s similar to the way adrenalin allows a mother to lift
a car that falls on her child.) This physical /
mental isometric exercise is done by isolating, violently flexing and
moving one upper or lower body group of muscles, ligaments and tendons at a time
through its’ natural range of motion.
Other groups are controlled / relaxed while breathing normally. This exercise
must be done before stretching for training or competition and 2
or 3 times every day at rest (Riding in Vehicles etc).
When it gets uncomfortable after 10 to 30 seconds
switch groups. No pain, no gain is true in preparing for competition. Pain is
not required to improve “speed” / performance intensity, reduce injuries
/ healing time or just staying fit. Coaches ignore isometric exercise
because it’s easy to fake . The scary strength one mentally handicapped boy got
by doing isometric exercise 2 or 3 times every day during epileptic
seizures. (His hands literally made knots in the wires of a cyclone fence! See:
training manual. His strength and the results of our “speed” test prove
it works.
Speed tests.
You’ll never run as fast as your age and size will allow until you can
stand, extend either foot forward, amaintain balance and do 10 full one leg
squats. You can do this in 8 to 12 weeks by training as directed in the Raw
Speed shoes and program. By using correct form / technique you will not only run
at your peak speed but you’ll jump higher, further, reduce injuries & healing
time in far less training time. Order today!

No
training program is logical
unless it uses rewards, competition (with yourself)
and humor to reduce the negative impact of fatigue! i.e. We use these and
other training tools and methods to improve 9 skills required to increase
“speed”. (Running strength, balance, quickness, agility,
flexibility, form, technique, control and endurance.)
i.e.
Athletes rest (as needed) after 2 attempts
to perform each of our 9 “speed” drills correctly. They earn gum Et Al token
rewards for improving their performance or telling the best “clean” joke.
While resting and laughing they do lower body isometric
exercise.
GUARANTEED
RAW “SPEED!"
THE ONLY
way to improve “speed” is by taking
longer strides quicker! That requires improving your running
strength, quickness, balance, flexibility,
agility, control, form, technique, endurance and
attitude performance. Over the past 30+ years we’ve chose 9 drills to
improve these 9 core “speed” skills. NOTE: The level of intensity these 9
“speed” skills are performed at separates “world class” speed from athletes that
run fast.
NO EXTRA CHARGE:
Have someone film you running in the 4 phases of sprinting at top speed. (Start,
recovery, accelleration and velocity) Make sure thee film shows you starting
and running towards the camer for 20 yards and past the camera for 20 yards.
Email it to fiberlene@yahoo.com with “My Speed” as the subject line. We’ll
review and customize our program for your weakest “speed” skills.
THE BOTTOM LINE!
We’re so confident in our shoes and program that we accept wagers to
increase anyone’s stride length & quickness (speed) more in 8
weeks by training just 30 minutes, 3 days a week than other tools and methods
can by training for hours every day for years. In fact when you
can do all 9 of our “speed” drills correctly twice in 30 minutes or less you can
run as fast as your size and age will allow.
“SPEED TRAINING SECTRETS!
The main advantage of our shoes is that they slash training time it takes to
develop all nine core “speed” skills. i.e. Leverage from our platform
shoes allow athletes to lift their own body weight countless times while running
with correct form. The “rocking chair” platform design of our shoes forces
athletes to take quicker strides or fall because it’s like running “down
hill”. We use nine un-restricted “speed” drills that we’ve chosen over
the past 30+ years to develop these 9 core skills required for “speed”. The next
secret is improving two (2) levels of fatigue. The first is performance
fatigue gained by attempting to do each one of our 9 “speed” drills correctly
two times each. The second level of fatigue is caused by doing isometric
exercise to increase the intensity level that you perform our drills at.
The only way to increase performance intensity is to rest (as
needed) after performing our drills correctly. While resting, do isometric
exercise on one group of lower body running muscles, ligaments & tendons at a
time until fatigue begins. Then switch to another group. Improving “speed”
requires performance endurance AND isometric endurance. Another secret is
the logic of competition with your self to perform our drills better. If you
make a mistake go to the next drill and vow to do better in your next training
session. Doing a drill “wrong” over and expecting a different result is the
definition of insanity. Make sure you earn gum et al token rewards for improving
your performance in our drills or telling the best “clean” joke. Note: To combat
the negative impact of performance fatigue athletes laugh and do isometric
exercise while resting (as needed) between drills.
REPEAT:
Isometrics
is a mysterious physical / mental exercise that science can’t explain. i.e. No
knows the exact reason two athletes with equal eabilty, age and size don’t run
as fast. Isometric exercise is done by isolating, violently flexing and slowly
moving one (upper or lower body) group of
muscles ligaments and tendons at a time through its’ normal range of motion.
Other groups are controlled and relaxed while breathing normally. Switch groups
when it gets uncomfortable. (After 15 to 30 seconds.)
Isometric exercise slashes injury “healing” time. Intensly tighten / flex and
move the injured muscle, ligament and tendon group being exercised through its’
natural range of motion as much as pain allows. Follow Doctor’s orders using
ice, heat etc as directed but begin doing isometric exercise as soon as pain
from the injury allows.
ISOMETRIC EXERCISE ADVANTAGES
Increasing performance intensity of the 9 core skills not only increases
your “speed” but it will improve you metabolism and reduce injuries or healing
time and “keep you fit for life”! The results of isometric exercise are
best illustrated by the incredible strength a mentally handicapped boy got by
doing isometric exercise during epileptic seizures 2 or 3 times every day. His
hands literally bent the wires of a chain link fence into a solid knot. A body
builder can’t do that with vice grip pliars. (See Training Manual)
Similar feats of strength are caused by adrenalin
that allow a mother to lift a fallen vehicle off on her child. The results
of our “speed” tests prove that isometric exercise soon reduces injuries /
healing time and increases “speed” skill performance intensity.
WARNING!
1st. Never stretch cold muscles, ligaments & tendons before doing
isometric exercise! 2nd After performance fatigue occurs
from attempting to do our drills correctly work on performance intensity
by doing lower body isometric exercise. NOTE: Do isometric exercise and
massage injuries with Relief analgesic cream (See Web Site) as
intensely as pain allows. It’s critical that you do isometric
exercises on lower and upper body muscle, ligament and tendon groups for at
least 30 seconds before stretching AND 2 or 3 times a day at rest.
(Watching TV etc) Before stretching and resting
after performing our drills you must “sell out” and do lower body isometric
exercise for 10+ seconds between “speed” drills and during breaks in
training or competition.
WARNING:
Always train in our shoes on a dry, flat surface. Do not wear our shoes
in team drills! Repeat: Rest as long as needed after you attempt do each one of
our 9 “speed” drills correctly twice. Then do violent isometric exercise to
“lock in speed” skill performance intensity”.
WARNING!
Raw Speed Training requires mental and physical effort! In our warm up and first
8 drills think about doing them correctly! In drill 9 don’t think
perform! Start, recover and accelerate to the velocity stage of sprinting
correctly.
MEASURE YOUR SPEED BEFORE YOU BEGIN:
Less than 5% of athletes in the world can stand, extend either leg forward and
do 10 full squats without losing their balance. YOU will never run as
fast as your size and age will allow until you can pass this simple “speed”
test. Note: 75% of our customers that train as directed can pass this test in 8
to 12 weeks. Another simple “speed” measurement is doing a ballet split during
our warm-up. Measure the distance in your split from ankle to ankle. If it’s not
at least 4” longer than your height your running strides are too short. i.e. A
6’ athlete should be able to “split” a minimum of 76 inches. Finally doing foot
ankle plantar flex movements accurately measures your 40 yard dash time. (See
“SPEED BEGINS”)'.
SPEED BEGINS
with foot/ankle plantar flex quickness. While sitting with your legs fully
extended, pull your toes as far toward knees and extend them as far away from
your knees as many times as possible for 10 seconds. (Alternate this foot /
ankle movement just like you’re running.) The goal is to get you to move your
feet quick enough to “swat a fly”. NOTE: 10 perfect plantar flexes with each
foot in 10 seconds equals a 5 second 40 yard dash. That time drops by 1/10th
second for each perfect plantar flex over 10. Doing 10 foot/ankle plantar flex
movements several times a day at rest. (Watching TV Etc)
improves stride quickness!
Note: Stop watches can’t be started and stopped
in less than 2/10ths of a second. Consequently a 5 flat 40 time can be 4.8 or 5.2.
The point is: Work at performing our drills correctly with maximum intensity.
CHECK YOUR PROGRESS: While doing a full girl’s ballet split measure the
distance from one ankle to the other. IF it’s not at least 4” further than your
height you need more flexibility. i.e. The distance between the ankles of a 6’
athlete should be 76” inches. If not spend more time on the warm up “split”
drill and doing isometric exercise with your groin muscles. Count your
running strides during the 1st twenty yards of a full sprint. IF you’re over
5’9” tall and take more than 12 strides you’re running in place. Work harder on
the walking and running step out drills.
WARM-UP:
After you’ve done the foot/ankle plantar flex
quickness drill for 10 seconds start working the nine core “speed” skills. Stand
on one leg at a time and do 10 leg swings as high as possible to the front, back
and side without losing your balance. If or when you lose your balance
change directions and make a pledge to do better in the next session. Do
a full side to side ballet leg split. If you can’t do a full split measure your
best effort and try to extend it by 1” every day. NOTE: Measure your widest
ballet split from ankle to ankle. IF it’s not as far as your height your stride
length is too short and probably the main thing that slows you down. After
doing a ballet split, fall on your back and build a back body bridge. (Lie on
your back with hands flat on each side of the head, fingers pointing under you
shoulders. Push up to make a bridge with your body and alternate lifting you
legs. Then work on developing your running strength and intensity
by standing, extending one leg forward and attempting to do 10 squats on each
leg without losing balance. Note: IF you can’t do 10 squats you’ll reach
a “point of no return” where can’t go up or down LOCK UP and do isometric
exercise 10-15 seconds. Then put a hand on a wall, post, bench etc. to maintain
your balance and pull / push yourself up 10 times on each leg.
Nine “Speed” Drills Chosen From Hundreds Over 30+
Years.
The primary criteria for any “speed” drill is NOT
alter running form and technique! Other drills may work but WHY re-invent the
wheel???
1. EGG SHELL DRILL:
This is a foot/ankle plantar flex
(where speed begins)
quickness and power drill. It’s done by lifting your own body
weight as many times as possible for 10 yards concentrating on the feet &
ankles. Pick your feet off the ground as fast as possible and land on the very
back / highest part of our shoes with heels not quiet touching the ground. As
you run with “toe up / knee up you land and roll your foot forward into a full,
quick and powerful foot / ankle plantar flex. Heels should never tough the
ground in any drill but you don’t run on your toes. Note: The heel of
“world class” sprinters is never more than 1” off the ground as they run with
maximum plantar flex.
2. EXPLOSION HOPS:
Squat with butt on heels and explode UP as high as possible and OUT as far as
possible to cover up to 40 yards as strength increases. Concentrate on a quick
and powerful foot/ankle plantar flex explosion off the ground like jumping off a
hot stove. Hang in the air as long as possible and plantar flex both
feet/ankles.
3. WALKING STEP OUTS:
Squat with butt on your heels and step out with the longest stride you can
without dragging your back foot up to 40 yards Keep your thighs parallel or
slightly below parallel to the ground. Walk slow down enough to get a maximum
stride with a full feet /ankle plantar flex movement.
4. HIGH KNEES:
Run tall as fast as possible while trying to touch your chest with your knees.
Don’t bend over and make sure to plantar flex the foot that’s in the air.
5. SKIPPING:
Skip up to 40 yards just like little boys and girls on a play ground. Exaggerate
lifting the leg in the air and pulling it across your chest. Get high enough to
plantar flex the foot in the air.
6. SIXTY YARD STEP ON THE ACCELATOR DRILL:
Explode out NOT UP from
your best starting position. Recover and accelerate into the velocity
stage of sprinting for 20 yards. Then slow down and run at 75% under control
checking foot placement, arm action et al running form etc for 20 yards.
Concentrate on running control (form etc) by holding a little back like a
great player does when they misjudge a ball in the air. Then kick it back in
high gear at top speed for the last 20 yards.
7. BOUNDING:
Jump up as high and as far out as possible off
one foot / ankle plantar flex pulling the knee across the chest. Try to hang in
the air as long as possible to plantar flex the foot in the air. This drill is
like a deer that bounds in the air as it runs and hangs long enough to look
around to check for danger.
8. RUNNING STEP OUTS:
Same as walking step outs except you try to run as fast as possible. You take as
long and quick a stride as possible with thighs slightly below parallel to the
ground. Don’t let your back foot drag.
9. PUT IT ALL TOGETHER:
Everything up to now requires athletes to think! Running fast is like
hitting a golf ball. If you have to think about it you probably can’t do it.
Don’t think! Explode out of your best Start (Out NOT Up)
to complete the next 3 stages of sprinting. Recover within 2- 3 yards
and accelerate into the final velocity stage of sprinting. NOTE:
Count your strides for 20 yards. Depending size and age taking more than 12
strides to cover 20 yards may be running “in place”. Have a Coach or our
certified Distributor / Instructor check you foot/ankle plantar flex movements
and placement. Slew foot or pigeon toe runners should do our drills on the lines
of a court, track or field.
WARM DOWN!
After the last drill do a minimum of 30 seconds
of isometric exercise on each lower & upper body group of muscles, ligaments and
tendons. Finally “speed” training is NOT a 3 or 5 day a week training course.
Isometric exercise makes training an every day necessary to reach “world class”
levels. GOOD LUCK!
