Its that time again!

Yep, that time to start thinking about the forthcoming Athletics season!

Im looking forward to it more than ever this year, partly because of my success in the 400m towards the end of last season acheiving a sub 50 time of 49.6 seconds.

I have been keeping myself fit by playing rugby, and have had the least injuries from a season yet, so i should be able to hit the track running...ahem....

Whilest at work , i sometimes browse the net looking for the latest training methods, and i am now convinced it is my glutes (arse) that need to be trained the most!

This guy, know as the glute guy reckons a sprinter should concentrate on the glutes far more than they do.

I have started to do some weighted hip thrusts http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gM9XXzVSbj4 in the gym and i already feel quicker, it may all be in the head. But i hope i have as much success using these as the deadlifts did for me last season when i achieved two pb's.
