Canova's latest athlete to win a world championship is Caleb Ndiku (2014 World Indoor Championships 3000m). In 2007, his athletes obtained silver medals at the World Cross Country Championships (Moses Mosop), and in the World Championships Marathon (Mubarak Shami). Canova began working for the Italian athletics federation (FIDAL) in 1971. His first position was as national coach of the 400m and 4x400m relay events. During this time he was involved in the training of 800m world record setter Marcello Fiasconaro, the first to run under 1:44 for the distance. From 1976-1985 he was national coach of multi-events. In 1986 he became responsible for the Italian marathon team, along with his good friend Luciano Gigliotti, coach of Olympic gold medalists Gelindo Bordin (1988) and Stefano Baldini (2004). Directly responsible for female runners, his athletes in this period included Ornella Ferrara (1995 World Championships marathon bronze medalist), Maria Curatolo (1987 World Road Race Championships 15 km bronze medalist and 1994 European Championships marathon silver medalist) and Maura Viceconte (1998 European Championships marathon bronze medalist). His last position with FIDAL was Technical Scientific Director, which he held until 1999. He is lecturer for the IAAF, and is frequently invited to speak in international congresses about the training methodology. In September 2014, the Chinese Federation appointed him as national Head Coach for middle and long distances, including marathon, for both men and women.〔Steiner, Ryan (2013-09-11). (Renato Canova named head distance coach for Chinese Athletics Federation ). Flotrack. Retrieved on 2014-09-29.〕 Canova's training system is based on increasing race-specific endurance.〔Canova 101 (2012-08-16. (). Running Times. Retrieved 2015-07-27〕 His Fundamental Period begins with high volume and low-intensity running along with uphill sprints and technical exercises. During the Special Period, training sessions move toward speeds that are closer to the athlete's goal race pace but still relatively far away. In the final Specific Period, all sessions focus on speeds only slightly slower and faster than race pace but with a goal of performing more and more work in each session. Throughout the training cycle, more and more recovery sessions are included as hard session become longer and more fatiguing. Because of this, Canova very rarely uses weekly or even bi-weekly training cycles in favor of adapting to the effect of each individual session. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Renato Canova」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
