need help with my sprinting mechanics/ form
« on: May 16, 2012, 09:04:55 pm »

I am really stuck on how i can perfect my sprinting my mechanics/ form.

When at the start i aim for 3 to 4 large strides before reducing.

then at top speed come upright.

then maintain speed.

but at maintain speed i am not able to step over my knees. i can do it at slow pace but when running at full intensity sprint i can't raise my knees high enough as i am running too fast to interrupt.

any help would be appreciated.

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
