Burn With Vern -- Circuit Training

I have not posted a lot in the last week because I have been working on a piece for Coach Jay Johnson's website for Cross Country and Track Coaches on Training in adverse conditions. I am hoping to publicize that when it comes out.

Coach Johnson has helped spread word about our program through one of the first pieces of writing I put out on this blog. It is called Training A 4:05 High School Miler.

That has become the most frequently read post on this blog as it is been read over 10,000 times. The most frequent question I get about that post is the circuit training we do.

Our favorite Circuit is called Burn With Vern and back in the winter of 2008 alum Cindy Taylor and Peter Callahan put this cartoon together on the white board in the weight room. They wondered who this guy Vern is. It is Vern Gambetta who has been a mentor of mine.

This past weekend, I put together an iMovie of the Burn With Vern Circuit. It is a great circuit to know if you train in adverse conditions like a Chicago winter.
