Sprinting Drills That Develop Proper Form
Спорт
Get the full Speed Progression Master Class outperformsports.com/product/...
4 sprinting drills that are incredibly effective at developing proper form and preparing the body for acceleration work. These drills are an essential element of sprinting workouts and are performed during most of the training year.
A Skips and B Skips can be fantastic drills when performed correctly. They can also be terrible drills when performed incorrectly. Too often coaches and athletes incorporate them into their training routine without really understanding the proper technique. When this happens athletes develop bad habits that tend to carry over into their running. Olympian and NCAA champion Ken Harnden gives a detailed breakdown of each of these drills including posture, body positions and mechanics.
Other drills include one two three and straight legged bounds. In addition to building technique, these are fantastic drills to get the nervous system and body warmed up and primed to get some solid speed work in.
Coach Harnden also talks about the importance of getting drills correct before moving on to more advanced sprint training.
Athlete Insight section features Olympian Cejhae Greene talking about the offseason and the critical role it plays in successful sprinting.

Incredible explanation on how to develop and enhance our biomechanics. Also showing those drills in slow motion is supreme. There are so many videos out there, but the how to is mostly missing or misleading. Thank you for sharing this! Phenomenal work!

As an older guy now who still very much enjoys running and sprinting the expertise is top notch. Extremely thorough and makes me wish I had a coach like him when I was tearing up the track in my youth. God bless you coach.

Would you put these drills in a frontside mechanics category? If so, do you have any tips/videos for backside mechanics e.g. what happens after ground contact, you want to cycle the leg forward as fast as possible to attack the ground again, right? Any drills for that?
@OutperformOfficial
3 жыл бұрын
While they help develop frontside mechanics these are foundational drills that develop several different aspects of the sprint (arm action, torso position, foot contact etc). The one, two three drill in this video is great for what you are talking about. Stay tuned as we'll be posting more videos in the future that will go further into your questions.

What's the difference between the speed progression course and the sprinting course I see on your website. Two different coaches. Which would be best for 60m/100m? Thanks!
@OutperformOfficial
3 жыл бұрын
Difficult to say as each course has a ton of great content, both would be good for 60/100m. Speed Progression provides great detail as far as building a training plan for the year, what type of training is done in the different phases and how to progress your training etc. Each coach has their own unique technique and training philosophies, you can watch some sample chapters on our site to get a feel for each class. You really can't go wrong with either one.
Good!
Thnks sir

Curious about the drills. We did many of these in my track days (your explanations are fantastic, BTW), but do they convey to middle distance running or are other types of drills preferable?
@OutperformOfficial
2 жыл бұрын
Appreciate the kind words. A and B skips are very applicable to longer distance running and I know a lot of elite 800m to 5k and even marathon runners that practice them at least once a week. The other drills in this video are more sprint specific. For the most part endurance runners would derive more benefit from strides, interval training/speed work and stability training that mimic the specific hip angles and positions of distance running.

There are other basic steps to take for beginners, like just walking with toes forward and proper forward and back arm action keeping eyes focused on a point in the distance. Keep it simple for starters.

Thanks Robin! The first example is a just a slight variation of the drill. Both styles are effective as long as the key technical elements are there (90° angles, ground contact etc.) The first athlete (Warren Fraser) likes to do that drill both ways, starting with switching feet in the air and progressing to both feet.

Yes, you want to get it at least to ~°90. Some athletes like Cejhae like to go a little bit higher which is fine as long as you drive the foot down to the ground underneath the hips.
Hey guys really appreciate the video. Just a quick question. How would I go about eventually implementing this into my actual sprinting. Is there a certain method or will my brain just start to make sense of it?
@OutperformOfficial
Жыл бұрын
Outstanding question! The real benefit with these drills are the changes that take place in nervous system. By practicing proper movement patterns with these drills prior to sprinting, you are training your body and subconscious to naturally hit the right positions (foot strike, arm movement etc.). You can't think your way through the sprint. Great technique is developed by 1000's of reps until it becomes automatic. That is why it is so important to focus during the warm-up and not just go through the motions.

Another advantage to these drills is that they will strengthen the hip flexors and should help prevent future injuries. Good luck in your training and on the soccer field!

Is there a specific number of sets and reps I should be performing these drills at?
@OutperformOfficial
Жыл бұрын
Depends on the athlete, where they are in their training cycle etc. However a good starting point is 2 x 20 meters for each. If you have specific issues i.e. you need to work on dorsiflexion and ground contact then doing 4 x 20 meters for A-Skips is an option. As a general rule you want to stick to 20 meters and focus on quality vs quantity.
