𝐁𝐒𝐂 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 Coach Dan Putnam
🔥 Dan is an Athletics Coach and Personal Trainer
🔥 He has been an athlete for over 20 years now competing in 100m, 200m and 400m with PBs of 10.47s, 20.91s and 46.02s respectively
🔥 Dan has represented GB and England and won national titles at all age groups
🔥 He has coached the Bears for over 3 years now and seen hundreds of PBs in that time
🔥 His favourite thing about the squad is the teamwork shown every session. Students hyping each other up before reps, picking each other up (sometimes literally) after sessions and cheering each other on at competitions
🔥 Dan loved seeing the squad progress and grow over the years, our numbers are higher than ever and students are constantly improving, learning and look like they are enjoying the process!

Sun out. Matching vests on. Running fast. Hitting lactic.

Are you planning on a WWT camp before the start of the outdoor season? Let’s break down why this may be a great idea before getting stuck into some races ⬇️
⭐ Better Training Conditions
Warmer temperatures help muscles stay loose and elastic, reducing injury risk. You can train at higher intensities more consistently (no cold, stiff sessions).
⭐ Improved Speed & Power Output
Sprinting in warm conditions allows for:
- Faster muscle contraction speeds
- Better nerve signal efficiency
This often leads to quicker times in training, helping build confidence and race sharpness.
⭐ Enhanced Recovery
Warm climates improve:
- Blood circulation
- Muscle relaxation post-session
Recovery modalities (pool, stretching outdoors, etc.) are often easier and more effective.
⭐ Access to Better Facilities & Competition Prep
Many camps are held at elite venues with:
- High-quality tracks
- Strength and conditioning facilities
You may also train alongside other athletes, simulating a competitive environment before the season starts.
WWT can be a great tool before the start of the season, especially if you live or are based in a colder country. It allows you to focus even more so on a quality over quantity way of training, to maximise the training opportunities whilst away.
Do you have a training camp upcoming? 🏃🏻 ☀️

So I said…
This is the stuff I love.
The in-between bits. The noise. The nerves. The laughter through a wall which then goes on to inspire a little edit ☺️
It’s the unscripted moments that end up meaning the most!

Tested with professional athletes. Built for development.
The Uruz Athlete team has been testing, refining and building a new group training concept for athletes across a range of sports who are serious about improving speed, power, agility, running mechanics, and overall athleticism.
Group-led, but tailored to the individual.
Data-driven, with progress measured every block.
Coming soon.
If you’re an athlete, coach, school, club, or athletic organisation and want to find out more, send us a message.
How important is your lane draw on race day? We know that the centre lanes are the ‘favourable’ lanes, but why?
There are several physical and mental factors that may affect your performance from certain lanes. Let’s break it down ⬇️ :
🌟 More/less natural bend running : the inside lanes have tighter bends, meaning your body has to handle more centrifugal forces, which can leak energy and slow you down.
🌟 Relating to the point above, the outside lanes have the most gentle curves, so theoretically are the fastest lanes (eg. check Warholm, Van Niekerk etc). However, there is far less competitive feedback if you are in the outside lane, which is why it is so feared by many athletes, as all of your rivals can see you but you can’t see them.
🌟 Psychological effects : inside lanes can give the illusion that even if you’re running well, it looks like you’re behind, so your efforts can be distributed in the wrong parts of the races to try and ‘catch up. Outside lanes you can have an isolation effect, where you feel like you’re running on your own, not executing your race plan, and almost waiting for the field to catch you before you switch into competitive mode.
Physically, lane 1 is the most difficult to manoeuvre, and you would expect your time to be a little down on if you ran it in lane 5 instead for example. Mentally, lane 8 can be the most difficult, as many people don’t like being the hare for others, and like seeing their rivals to spark that competitiveness.
In the race in this video, I was in great form, and a ‘bad’ lane draw wasn’t going to stop me running a good race. Remember, when you’re in shape, the external factors can’t stop you, but you most definitely can stop yourself 🧠
What lane would you choose if you had the choice?

Improving staying power means training your body to maintain near-max speed even when fatigue hits. Elite sprinters focus heavily on this because everything can change in the last 50m of a race! This is how they do it 👇
1. Train Speed Endurance
- Example sessions - 3-5 reps of distances between 90-180m
- Why it works - teaches your body to maintain sprint mechanics under fatigue
2. Fast-Easy-Fast Training
- Example session - 4x90m (30-30-30m)
- Why it works - helps control speed, conserve energy, and improves relaxation at high speed
3. Improve Sprint Mechanics Under Fatigue
- Focus points - relaxed arms / high knees / stiff/fast ground contacts
Why it works - at the end of a sprint many athletes, tighten shoulders, start the “muscle” the rep, and either shorten or overstride. Practicing these cues regularly in training combat bad mechanics creeping in during a race 👌🏼

When you feel like you’re running on the spot because the hill is so steep 😬
Hill runs are a great alternative to track sessions, and here’s a few reasons why:
1. Build Explosive Power
2. Improve Sprint Mechanics
3. Lower Injury Risk Than Flat Sprints
4. Incredible Cardio in a Short Time
5. Builds Mental Toughness
