Hello there. For the past 3 years I'm working as a coach and train kinds in Track and Field. In my hands now there is a girl 14 years old who I think has the potential of being quite good. The Internet doesn't seem to be friendly yet for Combine Events Coaches. Not many articles on specific training construction. So i thought of coming here and ask for your help. I want to see her succeed and not burn her down. 1st Can you give your constructive criticism on my training mecocicles? 2nd Can you post YOUR mecocycle structure. Only the view of how you put the components in your week can be very helpful. If you want to keep yours away from public eyes, I would love to get it in my e-mail at least. 3rd Since she is still 14 (born 1997), she still has 1 year where she will compete in Pentathlon (80m hurdles, LJ, SP, JV, 600m). So for this year, should I start investing in the upcoming Heptathlon? My main question is, should I start introducing her to the 100m hurdles (they have 8.5m from hurdle to hurdle instead of current 8m) or do so later on? How often should I throw in runs for 200m and training blocks for High Jump? My macrocicle September – October -> General preparation with easy weight training, lots of running and games. November -> Transition phase. Running drills, Medicine ball workout. Basic technique introduction in hurdles, long jump, throws. Interval runs. Olympic weight lifting techniques. December and later on we begin the following mecocicles. 2 week based with 3rd week acting as a rest week. Monday 1 – Hurdle drills, weight training, 20’ run. Tuesday 1 – Long Jump, Shot Put,. Wednesday 1 – 600m training, Core workout , Thursday 1 – REST, Friday 1 – Javelin, Weight training. Saturday 1 – Hurdles, Pleometrics, Shot Put. Sunday 1 – REST. Monday 2 – Long Jump, weight training, 20’ run. Tuesday 2 – Hurdles, Javelin. Wednesday 2 – 600m training, core workout. Thursday 2 – REST. Friday 2 – Shot Put, weight training.
