Stamina is one of the six limiting but modifiable factors dictating success or failure for almost every athlete, regardless of sport. Michael Johnson Performance (MJP) utilizes aquatics across the stamina spectrum for metabolic conditioning, both in healthy and physically compromised athletes of all ages and sports. This webinar will introduce the MJP 3-component stamina category and how it fits the overall MJP training system. The webinar will also offer minimal effective dosages for each component and  specific training prescriptions using aquatics as the metabolic training modality.

 

Attendees of this webinar will learn:

 

  • How stamina can impact the performance of healthy athletes and recovery of injured athletes
  • The qualities of the aquatic environment that make it ideal for improving stamina
  • How metabolic conditioning can be integrated into an overall training system
  • Specific protocols using aquatics for energy system training
