Hurdle Training

Many athletes & parents do not realize that hurdlers must be sprinters first and foremost. Therefore every hurdler must be trained like a sprinter with solid sprint mechanics, speed & power. Hurdles is a very technical event & must be given the proper specialized attention by the coach. Unfortunately, most middle and high school hurdlers do not understand the importance of sprinting & hurdle mechanics, leaving the athletes to struggle in the hurdles. By training with Tier1, your child will be trained by a certified hurdles coach who has coached many NCAA All-Americans in the hurdles & was also a college hurdler. We focus on the details of the athlete's sprints/hurdle mechanics and how we must incorporate the proper techniques to improve overall performances.
