Look What People Are Saying About "Underground Secrets To Faster Running"...
 "I just got your ebook and finished reading it. I think it is excellent! I was a bit skeptical of your ways based on the website and other blurbs about your program which I read several months back. The book does a great job explaining WHY you do what you do. A great read!"
Ashley Mort, CSCS, USATF Level II Jumps Jumps Coach Juniata College (PA)
"I've seen dramatic gains from using coach Ross' strength program, including higher knee effect from greater ground force. The effect has improved hill climbing, running economy and overall speed in my crosscountry runners. We even use the weight training system as a warm up prior to our harder running workouts."
Wesley Smith, Track and Cross Country coach
"The advantage gained by the time spent in the weightroom using coach Ross' system is the early adaptation to high intensity workouts on the track. Training for high speed can occur much earlier and continue throughout a long season with little concern about injury. "
Jonathan Patton, Sprint Coach
"The workout is very efficient and easy to do. The proof is in the numbers, the results are there. The players are faster and stronger."
Tim Von Busch, Football Head Coach, L.A. Baptist High School
