How to Improve Speed & Acceleration | When Your 10m Flies Aren't Flying (Part One)

How to Improve Speed & Acceleration | When Your 10m Flies Aren't Flying (Part One). This presentation focusing on common issues and training that can impact your acceleration and overall speed. I break down some mechanics and drills to help improve these qualities. Part two coming soon.
Too many times, in amateur athletics, an athletes career gets cut short based on the fact that they are simply just not fast enough to play “at the next level”. Whether it is a 40 yd dash, 60 yd dash or a big vertical jump, we aim to get you the times and heights you need to turn heads and get noticed.

Thanks Chris, definitely exercises to try out.

Thank you Chris.

Always good Chris! Looking forward to part 2. Question - if you're using the Lila sleeves on a sprinter with a slight hitch and uneven front side knee height, are you weighting the slower side, or the faster side? Hope that made sense.

I love how Chris says the word "fascia" 😂

[@alexlipman8102]

I have found my sprint times are heavily dependant on amount of sleep. That has nothing to do with the program you wrote.

Kind of lost me when you said you don’t want them to “rock the baby”, sprinting is all rotation and spirals why are you trying to coach that out of athletes?

He isn't. He is attempting to emphasize the toe off portion of the gait cycle by removing the ability to "steer" with the arms.

@@ThaVanillaGorilla13 sounds like it’s confusing the system and robbing Peter to pay Paul, I love Chris but he’s getting too nuanced and starting to lose people

@@jfitness432 I'm not really interested in ur opinion. Thanks.

@@jfitness432 Ur inapt metaphor aside, the person in the video has a clear crossover gait fault. This is what I believe Chris is trying to correct with the drill. And in sprinting, we are talking about tenth of a second improvements. So clearly, a certain level of nuance might be necessary.
