BIOMECHANICS
Just one small change within the mechanics of a given running stride will have an effect that is amplified by the number of strides present in a performance.
Better biomechanics are one of the quickest ways to improve speed in an athlete. If an athlete can embrace the coaches attention to detail and concentrate on cleaning up the areas of their technique, that are holding back speed, then over time the athlete will see three things happen due to improved efficiency. These are: -
Better acceleration
A higher top speed
Better speed endurance

Of course biomechanics cannot be improved by simply shouting commands at an athlete whilst they are sprinting at top speed. Changes in Hip, Ankle and knee angle etc can only be made at a slower speed first if an athlete has any chance of real improvement. SprinTech uses a series of drills to reinstall a new efficient style of sprinting into the athlete. These drills are reviewed on video by the coach and athlete so that a visual understanding of faults and then improvement can be made. |
