The first 3 strides look active then you almost look like you’re shutting down again…if this is a flying run the beginning should be gradual with a definative move later on down the line. I dont see this happening…its kinda like one pace from the 3-4 stride.
Someone else commented on the low knee lift. I too can see that. There’s no pop of the track either (I can hear that from the sound of the feet landings). Next time try a build up zone of 40m (this give you plenty of time to get the form into the cones) with a 20-30m fly zone:
I would like to hear your opinions on my arm action. The first vid is part of a 3.87v 30m (lj runup) were I used one cue for the arm drive and in the second one (easy sfs) another. The later was filmed more recently and my leg mechanics seem to have improved(total step over, straight leg at ground contact, much much better torso posture, high hips, I am running tall) but the arm action worries me since it seems to be somehow robotic (xavier carter esque). The changes in leg and torso action don’t have anything to do with the arms cue. My arm angles also seem to be a little bit more retained
Btw does someone remember I posted last year asking about groin issues? I worked a lot on mobility and you can clearly see the results in the third vid.
I also use this post to ask about the role of retained arm angles. In a 100m race is it wise to run normally untill 60m were progressive retainment of arm angles could be used for energy sparing purposes? Many 200m runners seem to use this arm drive.
Whats with everybodys Shoulders popping out? The last photo posted, everybodys shoulders are just popping out like crazy!! The muscle bely of the delts is insane.
