2014-15 UCR Track and Field Members, We hope this letter and summer training finds you all eager to get started towards next season s goals.

1 UCR Track and Field Members, We hope this letter and summer training finds you all eager to get started towards next season s goals. When you all report back to school for the start of fall quarter, there will only be a little over 3 months until our 1 st indoor competition. It is necessary that you lay the foundation this summer so we can use that 3 month window to get you technically and physically sound for your events. If the work is not put in on the track AND the weight room this summer, you will not be able to handle the workload and technical training planned for you in the fall and winter. Our challenge for you is to show up in the fall prepared with increased weight room strength and proper conditioning. Begin good habits NOW eat nutritiously, establish a balanced sleep pattern, force yourself to drink the appropriate amount of water, increase your flexibility, and COMPLETE your summer training and lifting. While we experienced another season of individual champions and successes, both teams finished in the middle of the pack in the Big West standings. To be frank, that is not good enough. You are all better than that. We need everybody on this team to hold themselves accountable with training since we will be hosting the Big West Track & Field Championships next spring. We all have a responsibility to continue to take UCR track and field to a higher level. The amount of consistency you put forth into your summer training/lifting will help define your levels of success for the next season. Make it your responsibility to hold yourself accountable to your teammates. STAY COMMITTED TO THE PROCESS!!! If you have any questions about the summer training/lifting, feel free to contact us by (nate.wiens@ucr.edu / nathan.browne@ucr.edu) or by phone (Coach Wiens: / Coach Browne: ). Have a smart summer of training!! Coach Wiens / Coach Browne UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA TRACK AND FIELD RIVERSIDE, CALIFORNIA (951) FAX: (951)

2 Expectations for 2014 Summer Training 1) **DO NOT BURN OUT TRAINING TOO HARD EVERY DAY** Stay consistent through your training and always leave some left on the track for the next workout this summer. You need to be able to report fresh and ready to train with the coaches and not burnt out because you pushed too hard this summer. Follow the plan and be consistent. 2) Complete all workouts in summer training manual. 3) On recovery days it is important to get out and be active - riding bike, swimming, or playing a sport you enjoy. 4) Call or for assistance if you do not understand the workouts. Goals will be achieved if the work is done correctly. 5) Eat proper foods and consume the necessary nutrition to compliment your training. Limit fast food intake, soda, alcohol and processed foods. 6) Hydration is important!! Workout in the morning to avoid workouts in the heat. Limit/Avoid mid-day training sessions in the heat. Complete workout before 10:00am if possible. 7) Try to complete all workouts on the grass or soft surfaces to avoid injury. (Hill/Stadium workouts might have to be done on pavement). 8) Great accomplishment on the track and in the classroom is due to dedication in all areas of life. If you are serious about academics and your track and field career your free time, sleep, training, summer classes, and all extracurricular activities will be lived accordingly to achieve your goals. Find discipline within yourself, pride in your team and a desire to be better than the year before. 9) Look into taking yoga (It worked for Kojackson) or pilates on one of your recovery days (Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday). 10) MAIN FOCUS Stay active and maintain or increase strength levels from last year and increase fitness level from last year. These workouts are here for your success. If you play basketball for 2 hours or do a triathlon on Saturday, or hike miles, all of these activities are great for our goal of being fit next pre-season. 11) Hit the weights consistently, but switch it up if you need to. If it is a hill run day but you feel like playing a couple hours of basketball instead, that s OK. Just be sure to be consistent in the weight room and in your activity level. 12) Lastly, complete the work with the mindset of being healthy and strong coming in for the fall semester.
