Abstract

The Aoyama Gakuin University ekiden (long-distance relay race) team has caused a sensation in the world of athletics in Japan, not to mention the world of university ekiden races, due to their incredible speed and strength in the Hakone Ekiden. The source of this strength is an original method called “Ao Training,” which combines the training methods of Hara Susumu, their coach, and the training methods of Nakano James Shuichi, one of the leading physical trainers in Japan who coached Olympic athletes such as table tennis player Ai Fukuhara. The details of this training method are compiled into a volume in this book, which provides detailed explanations of the theories and practical methodologies, while the accompanying DVD features example images of techniques such as core training and dynamic stretches. Having sold 150,000 copies, this is the new primer for Japan’s best-selling long-distance running training textbook for everyone from professional athletes to hobbyist runners.
