The Neural Map of Track and Field - Paperback

Track & field performance does not fail in the same way across events.

The neural demands of sprinting, hurdling, jumping, throwing, and endurance are fundamentally different, yet breakdown is often explained as if one model applies to all. Technique, strength, and conditioning alone do not account for why execution holds in one event and collapses in another.

The Neural Map of Track & Field makes those differences visible.

Rather than offering training plans or drills, this book maps how execution is regulated under competitive conditions-event by event. It shows where access narrows, where rhythm destabilises, and where performance predictably fragments when pressure increases. The same athlete may succeed in one terrain and struggle in another not because of ability, but because each event loads the nervous system differently.

This is not a theory book and not an instructional guide.
It is a map designed for recognition.

Read non-linearly. Start with the event you recognise. Use it to understand where performance holds, where it fails, and why the same explanations no longer apply across the sport.
