- Jeff Boelé describes his team's neural session, which consists of:
1. Warm-up
2. Dribbles
3. Sprinting (wickets, accelerations, speed development, speed endurance)
4. Multi jump circuit
5. Isometric holds
6. Multi throw circuit
Jeff explains throughout the video why distance runners need to do this work. This session was roughly 90 minutes for the athletes, yet they didn't cover more than 2,000m during the session. The athletes in this video are all post-collegiate athletes yet this type of session is appropriate for high school athletes (and one could argue this practice should be a centerpiece of training for young athletes who move poorly).
Jeff's Bio:
Jeff Boelé has a unique background as a coach. In his near 20 year career, he has worked with middle school, high school, collegiate, professional, and masters athletes. With a background as an endurance athlete, Jeff got his start coaching distance athletes at Greenville College in Greenville, IL in the summer of 2000. Upon moving to Boulder, CO in 2005, Jeff's coaching exploits started to diversify. He started working with a small group of post-collegiate athletes and eventually began helping at Lyons middle/senior high school (Lyons, CO) a few years later. It was at Lyons that Jeff's coaching acumen was refined. Brought on to coach the high jump, Jeff took the challenge of becoming a great jumps coach seriously, and that meant taking a deep dive into the speed/power world. Eventually, Jeff handled programming for the cross country team and all event groups (sprint, jump, throw, distance) for the track and field team. He had direct oversight of the jumps and distance events.
In 2015, Jeff met renowned coach Dan Pfaff at the ALTIS training enclave in Phoenix, AZ. Through this mentorship, Jeff was inspired to pursue a massage therapist license. Becoming a licensed therapist in 2017 was one more skillset Jeff added to his coaching toolbox. The combination of sports therapy, speed/power and endurance training have equipped Jeff well for his current role of working with professional and semi-profession distance athletes in Boulder, CO.
Jeff has a proven track record of fostering a culture where athletes of all ages and abilities are able to develop and see continued progress in their athletic pursuits. Jeff holds USATF Level I and II (endurance) certifications and a jumps event specialist certification from the USTFCCCA. Additionally, he is a licensed massage therapist in the state of Colorado.
Jeff works with or has worked with a number of notable athletes and teams.
