Next Saturday, June 13, MAPOMA organizes a training session open to the public in Madrid, with the presence of former athlete José Manuel Abascal, the first Spaniard to win an Olympic medal. The activity is free and is designed for those who wish to improve their physical condition or get closer to a historic figure in national sports. An opportunity to learn from a benchmark at no cost.
Running technique as the foundation of performance 🏃
In the field of sports development, the session will address technical aspects such as the biomechanics of the stride and step frequency, key to optimizing performance and reducing injuries. Abascal will share training methods based on his Olympic experience, adapted to runners of any level. The importance of breathing and posture will be emphasized, elements that make the difference between sustainable progress and stagnation. All in a practical environment.
Abascal: the athlete who ran before GPS ⏱️
José Manuel Abascal won his medal in 1984, when watches only measured time and didn't count your steps or tell you where to go. Now, MAPOMA invites us to train with him, but beware: don't expect him to solve your life with an app. If you arrive late, no notification will save you. That said, running with a legend will always be more reliable than any trendy algorithm.
