I'm 71 years old. I've been a distance road runner for over50 years. I signed up for the 100m, 400m, and 1500m events at my county's senior games. I had not idea how technical the 100m is to run well. At this point I just hope I don't get injured. ⚕

@@rizelissa Thank you. I ran my events on Wednesday 5/15. I didn’t place in the 100 meter 😔. But, I didn’t get hurt either 😁. It was fun to watch the guys in my age group that knew what they were doing. I was 3rd in the 400 meter in the 70-79 age group. I was 2nd in the 1500 meter in the 70-79 age group.

@Leonidas-eu9bb 5 ай бұрын

there are many more from the pros. it's not that hard to find them. I really like Justin Gatlin talkin against a high knee drive. Yes high knees is a bad cue.

@gmaxsfoodfitness3035 5 ай бұрын

High knees depends on the sprinter. It wasn't good for Michael Johnson but it was great for Carl Lewis and Asafa Powell and nowadays Marcel Jacobs and Noah Lyles. Often when sprinters aren't bring their knees up, or don't have good frontside mechanics in general, they have more motion going on behind them and the bottoms of their feet point up toward the sky which is slowing them down. You want the heel to come forward quickly along a cyclical path as opposed to the high oval sprinters have when butt kicking. In other words the heel shouldn't spend much time behind the center of mass. This is the reason you do drills like marches and A-skips (Bud Winter was teaching this 70 years ago as well as the forward lean which is where Bolt's former coach Glen Mills learned it from since Winter taught a seminar in Jamaica in 1966 that MIlls attended). The knees don't need to be excessively high but bringing the knees up a bit is an easy way to lengthen the stride without doing anything else. Michael Johnson was very strong so he already put enough force into the ground to have a long enough stride that not having higher knees didn't hurt him, didn't slow him down and he was comfortable with it but that was him and everyone is different. It seemed to work for Gatlin too but in contrast he would often overstride when he was tense (2015 World Champs 100m finals against Bolt, Gatlin was the fastest that year but his form broke down and that's when Bolt knew he won).

Again. i'm not against high knees. I'm against focusing/forcing the high knee motion. The knees will come up naturally if we strike the ground correctly and don't overpush. It should happen more reflexive than voluntary. almost effortless. When i ran my PB it felt like i needed the effort to stop the knees from moving up further. I was a nice feeling. @@gmaxsfoodfitness3035

@joeykarateka 3 ай бұрын

It’s not so much about high knees… it’s about raising your ankles so they clear the height of the opposite knee. This ankle height creates greater downwards force onto the track. Obviously, a high ankle results in a high knee, but it’s relative to the length of your lower legs.

@Leonidas-eu9bb 3 ай бұрын

Ok, but should be force this high recovery motion or should it come reflexive as a result from a proper ground contact before? Yes those high and quick recovery leg motion is crucial. But it must happen as a result of proper technique and having a strong core. Just trying to lift your leg up won't work in my experience.@@joeykarateka

@Leonidas-eu9bb 3 ай бұрын

I understand your points. High ankle recovery is definitely a good thing because of shortening the lever wich means less inertial resistance for the hip flexor and faster angular velocity. That is clear for sure. But you think that it happens through active hamstrings during the early recovery period. I think it's also a reflex from the stored energy in the calvs and hamstrings during the groundcontact phase. One fact is clear: The goal is to recover the swing leg as quickly/powefull as possible. This is mostly a hipflexor action, but the shortend lever (high ankle) helps to achieve it. Most elite sprinters show this action. especially the 200 guys. But there are also elite sprinter who do not show this. They rather flex the hips early and super quickly before the ankle has a chance to come up that much. I believe it's the hip flexion power that makes the difference. @@joeykarateka

The tip from noah is such a bad tip. if you run in the middle of lane 2, the bend is much tighter than if you run on the inside in lane 5. Running in the middle of your lane only makes sense if you are in lane 1/2/3 because it is much tighter there…

It seems they are talking an opposite language; "one's speed acceleration is lowered as one progresses with the distance "; MINE IS TOTALLY AN OPPOSITE!!! In 200m dash; my last 100m is faster than my first 100m; IN THE LAST 100M MY LEGS WOULD BE UP & MAKING LONGER STRIDES NOT EVEN ACHIEVED BY THE CHETTAH!!!
