"I would have done anything to have a copy of [Explosive Running] while running track at UNC-Charlotte. It would have kept me injury-free during that time." Mike McCandless Unlimited Nutrition

I finished reading your book Explosive Running, and I liked it even better than Explosive Basketball Training, which was already a great book! The thing I liked best was how detailed and straightforward the explanations of running technique were together with the pictures. It gives you a complete understanding of running technique and if you think about the explanations for yourself they make perfect sense. Thus you understand the role of each muscle and joint action much better which helps with programming the training. One outstanding chapter I really enjoyed and learned alot from was the one explaining technique errors and how they can be corrected. This is something that will optimize program design skills since you can find out a particular athlete's strengths and weaknesses. This was one thing I was looking for but haven't found in any other books.

My son needed to rebuild his throwing motion after reconstructive elbow surgery. I asked Dallas Cowboys strength Coach, Mike Woicek about Dr. Yessis. Coach Woicek heralded the work and results of Dr. Yessis. In short, he said 'If you have a chance to work with Dr. Yessis- take it'. I did and he saved my son's career and helped him earn a college scholarship in football.

I used Dr. Yessis methods with my entire team. I have never seen a program get these great, remarkable results team-wide, particularly with such efficiency. As an example, here's some of results: We cut 1/4 second from the team average in the 40; Increased standing broad Jump by 9" per leg; squat increased 120 lbs; Bench press Increased 140 lbs; an increase in body weight of 15 lbs. And remember, these are averages for the entire team.

Michael Yessis, a professor of kinesiology, takes a scientific approach to running. He isolates individual phase of the running stride, illustrates good form and common errors with stop action photography, and presents flexibility, strength, and explosive exercises that enhance the learning and improvement of technique. He makes technique changes easier. An excellent Troubleshooting section in his book Explosive Running, link common form errors to specific exercises that will correct them.

I want to report the results im having with training with the Dr. Yessis system. In the long jump, the boys went from 19' 5" to 22'3”. They went over 22” in one season. In the triple jump, there was an increase from 33' to 44'.
The remarable fact is that it is their first year out for track. We still have two weeks to go . Just get Dr. Yessis' book and equipment and apply the principles. Have fun and jump out of the pit.

Doctor Yessis is single handedly the most brilliant mind I've met in the field of Kinesiology and Sports Performance. Through his frame by frame analysis of my punching technique, he was able to develop a program that helped me separate my hips and shoulders in the perfect sequence. Sweet Justice, my punching power has to have tripled, just from separating my hips from my shoulder! Doc is really a genius and I'm certain I'll become UFC champion, because of his training methodology.
