I ran the 40 yard dash today I got a time of 4.83 and 4.93 and the person timing me said i have a very slow first step. I was wondering what can I do to get a better first step from a 3 point track stance?
Typing this now I think I realize my problem it is that as soon as I start sprinting, I go up vertically instead of letting my body accelerate forward and gradually getting my upper erect. Would this create a problem? I am also going to video tape myself running the 40 yard dash and am going to upload it to a yahoo server for you guys to see what I am really talking about.
