Post subject: | Sprint mechanics |
I have been working on the basic sprint mechanics for the high school track team where I volunteer. Take a look and see what you guys think. Please add or subtract anything you see fit. Sprint Mechanics: Keep head straight and facing down track Relax face, neck, and shoulders Square the shoulders Arms bent at 90°swinging cheek to cheek Hands relaxed do not clinch fist Maintain a forward lean of about 10° Drive knees up and extend foot with ankle in dorsiflexed position Land on midfoot or ball of foot under body Please let me know if this type of post is helpful. I am working on a sprint start mechanics as well. Thanks, Tony |
