  3. Brain, Don't take this the wrong way, you stated in a previous post that developing motor engrams "engrained pathways to the brain" are important. Well, time base plyometrics with repetitive multidirectional patterns have been shown to develop these pathways. On that same note an excellent way to develop appropriate running form is to do form running on a treadmill, so the instructor can give verbal cues and sometimes even tactile cues to assist in developing good mechanics. Good running mechanics are also reinforced by the athlete seeing themselves in a mirror. Repitition in a controlled environment develops motor engrams or "pathways". Overspeed training is not always the goal of these "high speed treadmills" you speak of. I would like to know why you knock these programs that have been shown to improve athleticism, decrease injuries, and improve overall self-confidence. I agree that cookie cutter programs and untrained individuals are a problem in our line of work. Jake Thompson
