Pool Sprinting for performance gain Canberra Sprint Coach, February 13, 2024May 4, 2024 Pool running at FAST Recovery Centre provides elite sprinters a valuable alternative or complement to traditional running sessions, providing numerous benefits while minimizing the risk of injury. FAST Running’s pool sprinting sessions incorporate low impact cardio, muscle engagement, active recovery, temperature regulation, whilst avoiding session monotony. Pool running engages a wide range of muscles, including those in the core and legs, due to the resistance provided by the water. This can help sprinters maintain or even improve their strength and conditioning during periods of reduced impact training. For sprinters dealing with injuries, pool running can be a valuable tool for rehabilitation. It allows them to continue working on their cardiovascular fitness and maintain muscle strength while minimizing the risk of exacerbating their injuries.
