Knee up, Heel Up when Attacking the Hurdle
In this instructional video, I discuss the importance of driving the heel up under the hamstring during take-off into each hurdle. I also discuss dorsi-flexion some more, and how losing dorsi-flexion during take-off can happen even for hurdlers who generally do run with their ankles dorsi-flexed. The discussion is supplemented with photos and a video of athletes I coach.
