These are great. I love finding good workouts for Agility Training and King Sports Training has some great workouts and drills. They have really helped with my speed and agility, as well as my football game.

I find that I feel more bored and mentally tired of running before I feel physically tired. I know flat bottom is better than treadmill but I feel less bored on a treadmill. Even then I usually get a mile at just over jogging speed before I’m bored and slow down then stop…any advice? MP3 players are an annoyance and uncomfortable

Hey John, I used to get shin splints pretty bad when I ran track. The thing that helped me out the most was running on a softer surface like the grass football field rather than the track. Also stretching before and after your workout was huge. Hope this helps.

I’d like to recommend a book I use
everyday.

The Art of Expressing the Human Body
Bruce Lee, John Little

An excellent study of Bruce Lee’s training methods. Keep in mind, Bruce was a forward thinker and was always researching new training methods and evaluating them. You should too.
No one can argue against his astounding pysique, commitment, and determination. Bruce Lee was certainly the Art of Manliness!

This is the best fitness resource I’ve yet found: http://www.youtube.com/user/strengthproject

Note the emphasis on gymnastics, parkour, and general mobility; this is for good reason, as many if not most gymnasts accomplish incredible levels of strength (well-rounded, functional strength at that) without ever lifting weights or using anything much more than parallels or rings.
