I think they are just very superstitious. But that was obvious.

Bolt looks to be in a bit of anterior pelvic tilt in that video... he's always been in APT... remember his "power clean" video?
But yeah... maybe if I'd have better hip flexibility to get the knee higher easily (without "trying") then maybe my mechanics would look different.
But at this point I just automatically put my foot down wherever the body feels like "doing so". I think at my level of strength that's what you get.
It's also kind of confusing how sprinters with good acceleration also seem to move their feet/legs at the start to the sides so to speak. So they don't really step in line with their body but behind and a bit on the side so their feet combined with their body look like a "V" for the first 10-20 meters. Then they start to step in-line and straight ahead...
You can see me do that in the video in the first post in this thread... I was like "let me try it" and... it's strange. Maybe they want to finish on the big toe or something in the acceleration phase?
By the way - thanks for the effort of writing that much, I really appreciate it.

What I mean by illogical is why would you raise your knee at 2378948234723 meters when you're going to need to put it back down really fast for your next "cycle" of that leg? It feels like you need to get your knee high and then drop on that same leg's foot and run with each stride... it doesn't make sense at all. I don't get the need to exaggerate the knee lift - you will raise the knee as high as the body feels like you need to in order to be the fastest.
If I were stronger then maybe my technique would look different. I always felt like technique is 100% related to your strengths and weaknesses.
So I don't really care about my technique to be honest. I will fall into place in direct proportionality with my strength.
