How To Accelerate Faster: The Mechanics We Teach Every Athlete

Acceleration wins games, and it is more coachable than most people think. In this one I break down the mechanics we teach at Wilmington Strength: forward lean and torso angle, positive shin angle and how it directs your force, why the foot has to land under the hip, ball of foot contact with a stiff ankle, arm drive, and heel recovery. I also get into projection and why you do not need perfect triple extension on every step, plus the best ways to actually train your acceleration, from varied starts to plyos to resisted and hill sprints. Built for our coaches and athletes, useful for anyone who wants a faster first step.
