SPRINT FASTER 1 - BETTER BIOMECHANICS

SUPPORT THE CHANNEL AND ;EARN MORE: LINK TO CHANNEL MEMBERSHIPS    / @johnshepherdtrackcoach   We all either as athletes or coaches want to create more speed. Speed is king whatever our event or even sport. However, knowing how to do this is no easy task. I've started to produce a series of videos which look specifically at this and have, for example, covered cadence and touched upon overspeed. In this video in the series I take a look at how biomechanics can help our understanding of the quest for greater speed. We take a look at contact time and how it's divided into an eccentric and concentric portion, joint angles and also what happens during the swing phase of sprinting. Asymmetry - between left and right side sprint cycles is also considered and whether this has an affect on speed I hope that this video will assist coaches and athletes in developing greater speed. Please note this was a relatively complex subject to try to convey in video format and I hope my understanding and translations, as it were, make sense. If you have any queries please let me know in the section below.
