4.0 out of 5 stars Too much information for average person, January 1, 2009

This review is from: Running-The BK Method (DVD)

Although presented well, there is too much information on this DVD series for the average person. This is more for a coach or someone maybe wanting to teach. I did learn a lot, but it was mostly over my head. My goal was to learn a bit of running technique and this was way more than I needed and kind of fried me by the end. Your needs may vary, so decide accordingly.

4.0 out of 5 stars A nice alternative to what you normally find on speed DVD's..., March 6, 2011

This DVD is a good eye opener for what you don't normally find on DVD's. There are a host of new technical drills that provide the coach with food for thought as to how to improve elastic properties with their athletes. While the drills may not make someone amazingly fast on their own they do provide a nice way of addressing and improving reactive properties in particular.

Frans Bosch is one of the foremost experts in the field of motor learning. This DVD is a great introduction to his theories/philosophies and shows how to apply them to athletes of all levels. A must buy for anyone who works with athletes or people who want to learn how to run.
