Track and Field: Hurdles
« on: July 27, 2012, 01:28:40 pm »

Hi

I was watching the 110m hurdle events at the diamond league and was intrigued at how much sprint oriented it is as well as jumping, i then thought since i am doing sprinting i thought that i would like to try hurdling, it doesn't look too difficult except maybe the height might, lets see how it goes.

any tips on hurdling?

thanks

Warm up drills
   - a walk, b skip quick powerful switch (heel to hams focus), a runs, dribbles small to big to run, straight leg to runs (force, reflex, go up/forward). force to hit the ground before it hits the ground knee/hip is at 90 degrees.
   - acceleration: low heel recovery, shin angle low, drive legs back before hitting the ground and drive thighs/knee forward not up
-------------------------------------------------------------
Measuring reminder:
5 toe to heel steps = 148cm

Arm also aids the legs in driving it down with power - seifullaah73
