180518 Friday Lunch Session... I want to get better at the 100mI just want to slamdunk on 10.
and
This is just the a Dad stuff.. i thought being a squat dude, i should be able to do ok in 100m... man i am wrong.
Today.. I try to practice start in the court again. With right foot leading and left foot leading.
I google searched a bit, and people said ur stronger foot should lead. Stronger mean more stable and... stronger. which usually mean, the Foot your jump off with, or the foot u keep on the floor while Kick a ball, or the first step u take, when some one push u off balance.
For me, my left is the stronger (and probably shorter) leg. I jump L R plant, and i know when i squat, I lean on my left.
However, it seem like when i sprint, keeping my right foot front feel more natural.
So today, I test it around and i think i know the reason. I am right handed. Right arm is sure stronger than left, and I want to use my right arm to initiate the first swing movement when i start. so... my very first LEFT Lead sprint start.. i clearly messed it up.. because i naturally want to swing my right. ( right foot and right arm at the same time is just wrong)
I clear my mind a bit and practice some demo left arm swing, and I got my LEFT leading start better...
(not much better in anyway, after all, i had only been sprinting with couching start for a week.)
After my 2nd LEFT lead attempt. I feel the Burning/sore sensation from my left Glute down to my hamstring ... with my quad not feeling much.
This is a shocker to me... All this year of intensive squat and jump... I always feel my Quad fire and sore... I mean i do feel my glute and ham being sore.. but never in such an isolated manner.
(not even during those HIIT 80m sprint i did back when i was trying to lose weight
This is just... new to me. with that said, how come my right glut/ham is not feeling the same effect.. only my left, and is it an coincident that it just happen to be sore right after I did a LEFT lead push off Sprint start?
werid... but i bet some of u might says... screw all this thinking process, get back out there, RUN ur ass off and let ur body guide u with ur own feeling.
(i took a few video of Left lead vs right lead start, will compile it and see where i go from there.)
