�PROGRAMMING� is course #15 of an ambitious Feed the Cats Certification Program created by Tony Holler. Feed the Cats is a revolutionary way of training, coaching, and teaching with an appreciation for specificity, essentialism, performance, and love. After gaining a world-wide following in Track & Field, FTC has now gained a strong foothold in American football and lacrosse. �PROGRAMMING� is a Feed the Cats approach to setting up practices. Practice structure is explored using two models, a staff of five and a staff of one. One of the most asked questions every year, �How do you structure your jumps, hurdles, and throws practice?� This course answers that question in detail. The categorizing of workouts (speed, x-factor, lactate, and *off*) is explained with video samples of each. Practice planning (for long and short seasons) is taught in simple terms with scientific reasoning. Coaches will be able to set up a season-long practice plan within minutes of finishing the course. Attention is given to the special circumstances of the 2021 pandemic. 108 minutes of talking track! � Additional Resources: Solo Speed Training in 700 Words The 400 is a Sprint � Courses that should be paired with this one: FTC-101 The Speed Workout FTC-102 The X-Factor Workout FTC-205 Sprint the 400 (Lactate Workouts)1 We Got Nothing to Hide (Spirit) 1:24 2 The Process 2:33 3 Team Organization 7:41 4 Jump Practice 2:10 5 Hurdle Practice 1:12 6 Throwers and Distance Crew 1:04 7 Coaching a Track Team All By Yourself 10:19 8 Preview of the Speed Workout Free 1:47 9 The Speed Workout 17:06 10 Preview of the X-Factor Workout Free 1:46 11 The X-Factor Workout 12:47 12 Preview of the Lactate Workout Free 2:12 13 The Lactate Workout 15:17 14 The Off Day 2:34 15 Review of the Four Feed the Cats Workouts 1:59 16 Meets Are Red 0:23 17 Distance Coaches Kill Cats 1:44 18 Organization of Workouts 1:20 19 Winter Training Free 1:44 20 The 19-Week Illinois Season 2:23 21 The Short Season (aka Covid 2021) 5:34 22 The 3-Meet Week 3:23 23 My Favorite Week (Saturday Meet Only) 1:46 24 The Problem With Long to Short (Don�t Copy College Coaches!) 6:47 25 What If There�s No Time to Get in Shape?
