Question for Charlie regarding hurdles starts.

I personally never used high starts with full speed hurdles but it is very common. I just did starts over one at regular spacing, though I would move in the others whenever it seemed appropriate.
The only time I used high starts was with tempo hurdles (ie 5 down and 5 back in sets as a tempo replacement) This was a workout used by Nehemiah and Mark McKoy did it often.

What is a high start? And what volume of ‘back and forths’ (that’s what I call that workout) did McKoy do?

I’ve read that Nehemiah did extremely high volumes of this type of work and I personally have had great benefits from this workout.
