Is ankle stiffness related to a better acceleration phase, in addition to the max-vel. phase?

Hi, I'm from India, if I want a NIKE SHOE (or other if u suggest) for track use only 100m-200m maybe 400m but focusing mostly on speed which shoe will you suggest I buy. I have researched and I found out that AIRZOOM TEMPO is for speed runs, AIRZOOM alphafly is for Marathon running and NIKE VIPERFLY FOR 100M focusing on speed. So as for my knowledge. I am in the mindset that viperfly is what I should buy as I mentioned only for track use. Money and Region is not a problem for me, availability of the shoe in INDIA shouldn't be a problem. I JUST WANNA KNOW WHICH IS BEST.

Man, you are amazing. I am loving this channel so far. I have been training as a sprinter and basically teaching myself. Your channel is my favorite so far. I love the quality of your videos and the information is backed up by science. I am keeping track of all the articles you mention. Also, the way you included Usain was so hilarious. 😂

Thanks very much! My son is 14 and does 100, 200s. Really like your videos!

[@user-245er4ud]

Your vids have been both inspiring and essential in learning to sprint without any guidance. I didn't really plan on sprinting and just kind of jumped into it after seeing a few videos on the benefits. Been at it for maybe 3-4 months now and I love it! I started using the same shoes I was previously running a few miles on [ASICS GT-2000 9's] and later started to question are these what I should be using? I'm not really looking to buy spikes [unless they are necessary] but I'm wondering if you have any recommendations on types or brands of shoes for sprinting

What do you do to fix foot strike on the first three steps out the blocks? I heard you say something about tape but what's the measurements of the tape for each foot strike

[@TheSprintProject_]

what issue are you having on the first 3 steps?

[@treyvon2784]

@The Sprint Project not striking back into the track. I'm cycling my legs. Also my posture is good for the first step but I come up so quickly afterwards to the point where I'm upright at 20m

[@Ohelloabhi]

​​@@treyvon2784 sled or hill accelerations

[@William_CD]

@@treyvon2784 I have the same issue sometimes. I think fixing your focal point makes a big difference. Keep your head down in a natural position (watch the track below/underneath you) and your body will follow. Allow your spine to come up by itself don’t force it.

@@mdaltamashraza yes bro But the dirt track that i train in is not total sand The track is hard and barely any loose sand on it The reason i train on that is because there is no synthetic track nearby Nearest is atleast a 100km But this year i will be joining college and will find one near a track

[@thisurlisoriginal]

That depends on many factors like your current technique, strength and fitness level. If there’s lots of room for improvement in these areas, (meaning you’re a beginner), you can lower your times within a few months.

[@MR.CLEAN777]

so if i run on my toes should i just ran on the balls of my feet with my toes pointed up and will that get rid of my shin pain pls someone answer

[@TheSprintProject_]

why toes pointed up?

[@hope_in_christ_alone]

[@jesscast94]

Glutes are still the most underrated muscle in sprinting even on this channel! This guy knows so much more than me about sprinting its not even funny! But the one thing i will say is that sprinting is about applying horizontal force not vertical force! Theres a reason that vertical jump heights only weakly correlate with sprint times.

[@Daniel-wi3ov]

If I’m getting tired by the 40m in a 100m what do I do to better that.

[@iams.a.w.2252]

I have spent my entire life training for one purpose: to achieve perfect sprinting form. I have devoted countless hours to running, studying the biomechanics of the human body, and pushing myself to the brink of exhaustion in pursuit of this goal. And yet, despite all of my efforts, I have never been able to attain the flawless form that I so desperately seek. At times, I wonder if I am simply not meant to achieve this level of perfection. Perhaps there is some fundamental flaw in my physiology that prevents me from ever reaching my full potential. Or maybe my training methods are misguided, and I am simply repeating the same mistakes over and over again.

[@coondous]

Who's here training for the dad's race?

[@Leonidas-eu9bb]

Sprinting fast is NOT so much about vertical/ankle stiffness as you may think. Ankle stifness play a role but not the crucial one. There are many athletes with crazy high boune. They all have very high relative strength numbers and high RSI over 4 sometimes even 4.5. But they still can't sprint as fast. Don't get me wrong. I'm talking about guys running 10.8-11.0s wich is fast but compared to their elite stifness/RSI it's poor. The main difference for elite sprinting speed is not vertical stifness. It's the ability to properly cycle your limbs as powerfull as possible.

[@flightreacts4603]

Those guys must have poor techniques tho , athletes with rsi over 4.5 should really run 10 lows

[@Leonidas-eu9bb]

@@flightreacts4603 No they jump super high but sprinting is more about leg cycle not just vertical force. The Weyland study is very misinterpreted.

[@Leonidas-eu9bb]

@@flightreacts4603 i guess we both know that decease in contact time is the result of increase in running speed. You and many others think it's contact stiffness (the ability to quickly rebound from the ground) wich is the important factor. I have to answer you can be as stiff as a steel ball but without the necessary horizontal impulse you won't generate enough horizontal acceleration. Most coaches think that leg collapsing during ground contact (wich is not good) is a sign of a lack in stiffness. I have to answer maybe to some degree but if you switch the limbs fast and effectively you will achieve proper angles and there is no need for high stiffness. VERY important: in sptrinting there is only a 4-5cm (1.5-2") vertical oscillation of the COM. The best sprinters have the LEAST vertical oscillation in relation to stride length! This clearly proves we don't want huge vertical oscillation but just enough. We surely want to move horizontal!

[@flightreacts4603]

@@Leonidas-eu9bb i think decrease in ground contact time causes increase in speed , not vice versa
