short stride length, flexibility problem?

Too much lower back on those deadlifts.

@syrus2001

You took you’re hips out from the begining. At first you were set up in a good position and then lifted you’re butt up before the lift. Keep the butt down and do the lift.

yah i know what you guys are saying, couple guys told me that when i originally showed the videos on another forum and i’ve mostly fixed the technical issue in my deadlifts now.

@fogelson

All the videos are old and the sprint videos have about half a second of film worth analyzing.

You’re young. Just keep training and stop worrying about the minutia and asking stupid questions–it will only hinder your progress. Get out of the mindset now that strength in the weightroom equals or even approximates strength on the track and that strength in the weightroom is going to translate to improvements on the track without significant work. Looking at your sprint videos alone it looks like you are stuck in this syndrome already because your upper body is incredibly rigid and it is hard to say, but your hips actually do look fairly tight in that video. ROM on mobility drills or stretches =/= muscle tone and tissue quality. This is why there are plenty of girls that can do all of the splits in the world and still look like their pelvis is in rigor mortis when they sprint.

Can you clarify further into this?
what do you mean my upper body’s rigid? and if mobility stuff/stretching aint gonna be good for me, whats your reccomendation?
