Best and Worst Form

What is a good form and what is a bad form?
IMO, if it’s efficient, it’s a good form. Montgomery couldn’t run 9.78 without a good form. That doesn’t mean that he his flawless and that everyone should copy his style.

Matt Bruno a good form? A shame that with his muscular body type, he still has a such knee bent during breaking phase!

On the women side, in the max speed section, i like Thanou, her technique is very sound, even if i don’t understand why after so many years she hasn’t improve her start technique. I’m maybe wrong, but i’ve never noticed any significant changes, any attempts to modify her start form.

Has anyone mentioned Chidi Imoh??? Poetry in motion, or epileptic sprinter?

Deji Aliu is his heir.

I wonder if a gold chain 'round your neck can mess up your form?

Sure didn’t hurt Mr. Laidback World record holder, grandmaster poonannie Micheal Johnson…

(I don’t know what a Poonanie is either, so don’t ask:)

cheidi imoh rock and roll man! daniel effiong,now theres one ugy who was raw but we all know what happened.made the finals in 95 though.

good form,well just look to the left.tell me thats not excellent form and propably the best we will ever see.good form will always look smooth and effortless,bad form will look the total opposite.

Xman, on that note you will be glad to hear that my arm-angles are finally opening up. I have stopped fighting myself. What a revelation!

good man thor,what was the solution? relaxation?

What I know is that relaxation was the result.
What I did wrong was to conciously try to decrease the arm-angles at the top of the front-swing, like you see happening in the picture of Bailey down there. He is surely not conscious of it!
The better I got at it the slower I became.
