BODYWORK: Meshing Mind and Muscle
Head Strong (Cont.)

Race-Ready in 41 Days>> Trainer Owen Anderson designed the following program for runners attending his neuromuscular camps, but it's valid for cyclists, swimmers, and other endurance athletes. Anderson's plan assumes that you're already devoting four to six hours a week to cardiovascular exercise. (If not, spend six weeks building up your fitness level before you jump into this high-intensity training.) Make sure to start each day's workout with a ten-minute warm-up at a conversational pace, followed by a sport-specific neuromuscular exercise (see "Jump-Starters," next page). End each session with a ten-minute cooldown.
