Elite collegiate women race walk -- slow-motion study
The rules of race walking do not allow the athlete to repeatedly have both feet off the ground long enough for it to be perceptible to the unaided human eye. That is a threshold around 50 thousandths of a second of lost contact. The frames in this video are 33 milliseconds apart which means that if there are two consecutive frames showing both feet off the ground during several steps in a row, the athlete is in danger of being given a red card. Three red cards from three different officials would lead to them fouling out and being removed from the competition.
For comparison, a runner is off the ground with both feet for more than 140 milliseconds every step they run.

Hyperextension in the race walk action -- two lessons
Просмотров 6775 месяцев назад
1. Judges should take care not to mistake hyperextension of the knee (the angle at the back of the knee exceeds 180 degrees) for failure to comply with the rules. In these examples, both athletes land with a generally straight leg but the knee angle continues to change as the leg passes under the body. Observing an athlete taking three or more steps per second can give the illusion that the leg...
Super shoe distortion on landing during a race walk
Просмотров 3715 месяцев назад
This clip of a race walker's foot is taken at 120 frames per secon. It shows a single ground contact with a thick soled shoe including a foamed Pebax midsole and moderator plate. The sole distortion may add to a judge's visual perception of lifting since the foot does not decelerate as rapidly in this type of shoe as in thinner soled shoes with traditional EVA midsoles. There is no one 'best ra...

Racewalk foot placement - front view
...and, thank you to the MInistry of Silly Walks!
There is a 2.4km running for approximating one’s VO2max level. Some elite runner could finish 2.4 km within 07:12 minutes. Some may be 15-16.6 minutes. If we adopted racewalking in this test, should we shorten the distance into 1.8km?
Another way to approach this is to use the same test and use the VO2max figure "as if" it was correct. It won't be right, but doing training at paces set to this pseudo-figure will be an effective method of improving oxygen uptake.
3:55 Speed this girls?
At the end of the video they are walking at about 6 minutes per kilometer (6.2 miles per hour).
@@ianwhatley7310 Thank you Ian.
Thats cool and so great
Thanks! I hope it is useful to you.
1. Is the racewalk speed ranged from 10:00-08:00 per km a recovery pace? 2. Is it possible to racewalk in a pacing between 10:00 and 09:00 per km?
Recovery pace varies between individuals. It depends not only on fitness but also race walking skill. It is certainly possible to race walk at slow speeds and is a useful skill in 24 hour races.
I am still watching your great videos, and wondering how your two ladies are doing now. It has been 3 years since the last update...thank you!
They finished 11th (Tori) and 13th (Jesi) in the US Olympic Trials in Oregon over 20Km. Thanks for your support and encouragement.
@@ianwhatley7310 That is awesome!
Thank you for teaching us to continue to enjoy our active lifestyle without running ! Thank you sir! I am going to practice every day! I have been running for 25 years, now I discover this race walk style is more efficient than my run!❤❤Love it!
I do the walk race
❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉
Great tip!
Thank you for the video. Can we train on 3% treadmill incline or we need to setup at 0%?
When we train on a treadmill, we use a 1/2% grade. This compensates for the lack of any headwind but does not affect the mechanics of race walking. The risk with higher grades is that they may alter the athlete's mechanics and teach them poor form. Most races are on generally flat courses or on tracks.
Well explained and demonstrating the steps is helpful. Thank you!
Thanks Mike. Great seeing you at the Olympic Trials.
That’s my angel baby girl!!💖💖💖
And getting faster all the time!
Good advice to gwtting an idea of how much loss of contact one is getting.
This is a better test than simply eyeballing someone's form and guessing if it will pass muster with trained judges. If you limit your lifting to 40ms or less, you will rarely get called for loss of contact.
I would try again with 8 frames tbh and white cap slightly higher knee carriage would draw my eye to loss of contact of course you don't show the same footage at full speed which would help
or get a decent judge to watch them
Reasonable comments, Mark, thanks. For those who don't have a "decent judge" on hand when they train, this method of estimating is a useful training tool to check for excess lifting. 8 frames LOC at 240 fps is 33 ms of flight time, which is still below the visible threshold. This does bring up a good point that lower frame rates make LOC estimations less reliable. My camera can only record slow motion at 240 fps and play back in slow motion. I wonder if there is a way to playback 240 fps at a higher frame rate to allow viewing as a regular velocity race walk? I shall ask amongst my tech savvy athletes.
The double jointed knee advantage 😊 Lands well. (A few females mainly I have seen in UK land where leg is straight but continues to flex further after landing where if your knee join doesn't flex beyond straight and you land not locked the knee appears/is bent
Hi Mark. I have heard some debate about hyper-extension of the knee. A few judges call it as bent although the leg lands straight and then continues into hyper-extension. The ongoing angle change gives the illusion (especially at 3 or 4 steps per second) of a soft landing.
Great video Ian!
Looking awesome and a great song 🎵
Good luck to him!
This is good for officials to view and analyze proper technique.
Great stuff!
Such a great how to for beginners video. Thank so much!
Creo que no seré la única que se muda del running a la marcha atlética, el motivo por el que despues de 10 años (tengo 55) dejo las carreras es meramente el clima, despues haber hecho mi último medio maratón éste domingo 19 de mayo 2024 con un inclemente calor, esos 21 mil metros me hicieron tomar ésta desición importante, por mi salud física y mental. Saludos a todos
Thanks Ian.
Another good one!
That was cool
Somewhere between art and science! Fascinating.
Was juat talking about this and will be emphasizing in my shoe reviews - never the perfect shoe.....but still want to find a few geeks for a chat about what theoretically would help a racewalker shoe-wise!
Individual biomechanics, race pace, the surface, perceptual differences-- just some of the reasons I stress that you should test shoes before purchasing them even if you feel self-conscious race walking up and down the aisles of your local sports store.
Shoes name pls
Love it!

Great technique video, thank you!
Thank you. Please share this and let's build a race walking boom.
Coach Ian good to have best coach ever bye.
Greetings from kenya coach.
Thanks for the kind words. I am enjoying the growth of race walking in Kenya. I grew up in Birmingham and watched the medal winning effort in the the Commonwealth games last year.
Her technique looks elegant. How long did it take her to develop it? I have lower back/hip flexor issues and settle for powerwalking, but my movement is not REMOTELY as beautiful as hers.
Some of her form is due to the immersion effect of growing up with parens who were training for and competing in international races. I estimate about 4 years of practice plus attending her first Olympic Trails race at the age of 10 months! The lower back and hip complex is the core of good technique. If you can stretch and strengthen this portion of your body, you can better position the landing leg at each step. Good luck and let us know how you progress.

7.5 mph for 15 minutes i have done. This vid is great
Love this! Really shows good technique! I am bouncing along and trying to figure out how to fix it.
Magical! ❤ Stephane
Shared a bit of video and directed to your channel account on Canadian Racewalkers Instagram account. Great stuff!
I can walk at this pace but only can sustain for about 5km or so.
What's pace
Good question. I recall this is about 4:48 per kilometer, but I can't find a note to confirm this.
@@ianwhatley7310 Hii, how to increase our race walking pace? My pace is 8 min/ km
Those girls aren't novices
Hi Ian, do you provide one-to-one coaching? If so, how do I get in touch with you?
Thanks for your encouragement. A great person for coaching help is Dave McGovern. ruclips.net/user/DaveMcGovern
Furthermore, I would like to ask more questions about racewalking and running. 1. I would like to adopt this racewalking training programme for maintaining health. Every Wednesday and Sunday, I would like to do ten sets of economic training once respectively. Furthermore, I do base pace training 1-2 times. 3-4km each time. May this program improve my VO2 max? 2. I run 1,600 meters within 6:09 (3:50 per km). How much is my VO2 max level? 3. Do you recommend any calculator express equivalent VO2 max level in various running/racewalking level?
Improving VO2 Max is more difficult if you are already well trained. If you are just starting out on a rigorous training program, you can increase VO2 Max. I have found the Daniels' Running Formula tables work well for racewalk coaching. If you only use figures from 5Km upwards to set Vdot (racewalkers don't have a sprint gear and their pace versus fitness is distorted at shorter distances), his charts of optimal training paces for easy workouts, VO2 Max, threshold and speed work are excellent.
For a male elite walkers, he may walk 20km within 1:30:00 (4:30 per km). In this case, suppose his VO2 max is 3:45 per km. Is this program reasonable? Economics training: 0:40 per 200 meters. VO2 max: 3:45 per km threshold walk: 4:10 per km Base/recovery walk: 6:15-5:00 per km. However, suppose this program is reasonable. Why are there some elites adopting 07:30 per km as their base pace (LSD training). Will it not be that the training level (07:30 per km) being too low for them?
90 minutes for 20Km is only slightly slower per Km than threshold velocity, which is likely about 4:24-25 per Km. Economy pace for this athlete would be 44-45s per 200, 4:03-4:06 per Km for VO2 max, and base/recovery 5:28-5:24 per km. How slow is too slow to be useful for base work? That is an excellent question and probably varies a lot between individuals. If they are hitting an exercise heart rate above 60% of their max heart rate, there probably is benefit. If they are going this slowly because of tiredness or resdiual soreness from training, they might be better served by a day of cross-training (bike, swim for example) or a day of rest.
Thank you for your clear racewalking tutorial. I'll try your method out in my first 1500m racewalk at the New Jersey Senior Olympics next month (last year's winner completed the race in 10 minutes 40 seconds!)
Im very unfit slightly overweight 38yr old, iv not done cardio or anything other than normal pace walk or slow bike ride in years. Just got a gym pass and been jogging at that speed 1km a time and and weight training. I knew i was slow but didn't think i was going walking speed?
The word 'walking' covers such an array of speeds that you shouldn't worry about comparing yourself with others. You are on an adventure for fitness and--walk, jog, run, bike, whatever--this is going to make you feel better physically or mentally as well as improve your health. Good luck and keep going!
@@ianwhatley7310 thanks pal
You truly explain this so I can understand the technique, so well. ThankYou
