Coaches, including myself, routinely recommend core strength training to improve athletic performance and reduce the risk of injury. There is increasing published research that shows core strength training does improve athletic performance and may decrease the likelihood of injury while training and racing. In this article I will present some examples of this scientific research.

Just a reminder that club dues are due for 2009. The Club is extending the discounted
rate until March 14. The discount rate is $50 but after March 14 the cost will be $55.

PLease take a moment to write out a check to the Salt Creek Tri Club and send it to Jim at the following address:
