Tempo Runs for Baseball

Zach Dechant
Conditioning for baseball players has long consisted of LSD, long, slow, distance work.  While slow aerobic work has it benefits, I tend to disagree that it is a useful technique for baseball athletes which leads up to the inclusion of tempo runs.  Tempo runs tend to fill the gap between speed, aerobic fitness, and recovery. 
What are tempo runs?
Tempo runs are low intensity sprints performed at 65-75% of max speed.  They are essentially the middle ground between full out sprints, and slow jogging.  They are termed such by the great Canadian sprint coach Charlie Francis. He utilized tempo runs as not only a form of aerobic development for sprinters but as a means of recovery in his high / low system of programming. 


A high-low system, if you are unaware, means high nervous system intensive demands are all placed on one day, followed by low nervous system demands the following day. Join Strengthcoach.com today for only $1 to access the full article and much more!
