moving side to side from the blocks

Regardless of the mental cues, you NEED to develop triple extension in the first place. That’s what I mean about basic fundamentals. If you don’t achieve triple extension (or don’t have the power to achieve it by the first footstrike), it can (and does) lead to wasteful side-to-side motion because block clearance is not sufficient.

I don’t disagree which is why I posted,

"At full extension in the start, the hand is out, don’t keep the elbow in. "
