one of the best hurdle videos i've seen.. people underestimate the trail leg

[@azharnoor93]

Ur right

[@tacodaddy4309]

Also they underestimate my middle leg too.

[@delha9687]

Lmao never thought I’d see Justus in a comment section

[@solomonkdawson]

I’m not gonna under estimate it after falling all practice😂

[@ShadowTheHedgehog9659]

Seems pretty easy but it's different when you do it on the actual track

[@linabrown1731]

literally omg it looks so freakin simple but i keep forgetting about my trail leg

[@R1chAsshole]

Just need to get in a rhythm like anything else, get used to maintaining that rhythm. Then you can break and change it as you please.

Thank you guys, i needed to some research for some hurdle Animation and this is by far the best reference i got :)

Sweet! Would love to see the animation when you are done.

This is such a great video I wish this I could’ve seen this during my days 🤣

[@OutperformOfficial]

Thanks Thomas!

[@kennethwoods6525]

There's a LOT going on with the trail leg! Who knew? Great video and explanation. Thanks for the drills. You guys must be awesome coaches.

[@deedeedubose6714]

Again, excellent video! If your school ever does a clinic of any sort, we would love to attend. You're absolutely right about track and field needing more love.

[@thinkboro8378]

My 12yr old is really having hard time transitioning trail leg drills into actual hurdling. The third drill looks like it will help soooo much. Having my wife and daughter watch this with me tonight.

[@OutperformOfficial]

That’s great to hear! The third drill should definitely help. Consistency and patience are key, especially at 12 years old. If you’re looking for even more in-depth guidance, Coach Karim and Coach Brown’s online course, Hurdling Smarter, is a fantastic resource for developing proper technique that carries over to the track. Best of luck!

[@rattman698]

Thank you so much for this video! I am trying out for hurdling and I want to have the perfect form. This video helped a lot!

[@OutperformOfficial]

Awesome, good luck!

[@anthonyjeter4643]

Go Gamecocks!!!! I absolutely have to be at the next clinic!!!! Great information on this video alone, geesh! 💯

[@lukeschroeder5224]

POV: you’re watching this because your school doesn’t care about track and the coaches know almost nothing about hurdles.

[@lukeschroeder5224]

Oh yeah and a little more specific: you’re school doesn’t have a track and it only has 6 hurdles

[@OutperformOfficial]

A big part of the reason we make these videos, track and field deserves more love!

[@lukeschroeder5224]

@@OutperformOfficial yes! We have 2 basketball courts but no track… it’s under appreciated!

[@amelia3266]

this is a big help thanks

[@nsikanboni]

very helpful, I’m gonna do all these

[@jrherrera1663]

I don’t jump high and all I do is juke cause I can’t hurdle but this video makes me wanna jump over someone now so I started training and didn’t work out that well I only jumped over someone but they could get me but after this video I started hurdling people so thanks 🙏

It should, maybe not today but definitely after some practice. Good luck!

Nice

[@sighlol]

i do all these but its just not enough, but my trail leg hip side (if that makes any sense) has been popping, are there any stretches that help that?

[@OutperformOfficial]

Sounds like you might need more stability and strength work. Hurdle walkovers, split squats, lateral leg raises etc. Those will help strengthen while improving range of motion.

[@sighlol]

@@OutperformOfficial okay, ill try that, thank you.

Male HS height is 39”, how high do I make the hurdles during the 1-4 point drills?

Oh boy. I just joined track and I think that I want to do hurdles. I'm 5'3. Lol.

[@Cyb3rFxngs]

@@reagan632 i just competed today with 0 experience on high hurdles and i got 4th almost placed 3rd i got beat by .1 seconds 😂we also have a team member who is 5’4 he can jump high hurdles and im impressed and thats when I learned that height doesn’t really matter

[@delha9687]

Yeah I keep smacking my trail leg on every hurdle I dunno how I haven’t fallen yet lmao

[@darrcface2469]

I live in Denver. Their does not seems to be excess to High Schools premises, as far as utilizing Hurdles, I'm a non- student. Can you direct me a store where one can buy or rent Hurdles, near me? If not possible perhaps Amazon type store.

[@wh0s_.n3vaeh]

Ok so I'm in 8th grade and I can land and ii have the height in my jump but I have bad habits of twisting my hips and sticking my arms out. Help?

[@OutperformOfficial]

check out this video we posted on fixing the rotation kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYeXlICXhN5me9E practice sprinting down the lines on the track, that will carry over into hurdles

[@annieloos4657]

watching this after i just fell and ate shit yesterday 😂

[@dmb2322]

i'm a great hurdler for only being a sophomore and i have trouble keeping my full speed in between hurdles hopefully this helps

[@OutperformOfficial]

It should, you can also try drills where you move the hurdles closer together to help with the 3 step rhythm.

Hurdle 101 How to break your arm

[@erichansen3641]

Athletic training makes ZERO sense to me. You don't get better with hurdles by trying to jump over full height hurdles. You work on technique with a hurdle height you can maintain technique with, then gradually train with higher and higher hurdles as you maintain technique at each stage. OBJECTION: "But they don't allow you to compete with a lower than standard hurdle height." That's their fault for not providing you with competition FLIGHTS for athletes of all abilities from beginner to advanced.
