Bracey running 10.19 a couple of weeks after starting sprinting is mind blowing
Raw talent
His natural running form is insane. His front side mechanics are phenomenal
But he was playing football so he already had an athletic background
@@Notorious-AP yeah still crazy talent though
So he reached .25 seconds of his PB in only a few weeks? Yeah not buying that. How is it that sprinters continue to improve for years and he reached his max "immediately." Give me a break he obviously had a lot of experience building speed and sprinting before that
Trayvon Bromell is another sprinter who had insane natural talent
Had??? He is still running I think
@@douglaslegvold9215 for a junior athlete he was insanely fast. First high school kid to break 10 sec
He is also short
I’m going to spend the first half hour of my workouts doing sprint drills now. I just turned 30 and have been doing heavy weight training and bodybuilding for years. I’ve become bulky and slow, and I miss being athletic
Time to Switch to rings 🎉
look up just jumari
You can do both. Speed drills 3 times a week
@@justgames_notalk for how long/per session?
@@turkishdelight6032 just a few different exercises each work out. 20-30 mins. I prefer to lift first and then go in to the sprint drills. As I get fatigued and sweaty with them. But either way round works.
that visual at 7:07 really helped me realize how terrible my own running form is, thank you for including it
great content!
Bolt was superfast without good technique.
Then he improved his technique (posture, strength) and became the GOAT.
So technique matters at least a bit.
It does not really help athletes to use extreme examples like Usain Bolt. People like him are anomalies. Everything about them is different. You say Bolt was "superfast without good technique". It's more like, with bad technique, Bolt was faster than anybody you have ever seen in real life anywhere on Earth. It would be better for people to learn from the short muscular dude in the video, because he is closer to what a regular gifted sprinter is.
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.
DON’T GIVE UP !
Wow, it sounds like you've dedicated a lot of time and effort to perfecting your sprinting form. It takes a lot of courage and determination to pursue a goal so relentlessly, and I commend you for that. Don't be too hard on yourself if you haven't achieved the level of perfection you desire just yet. Remember, progress is a journey, not a destination.
Perhaps it would be helpful to seek feedback from others, such as a coach or trainer, who can provide an objective perspective and offer suggestions for improvement. It's also important to take care of yourself both physically and mentally, and to avoid pushing yourself too hard to the point of exhaustion or injury. Keep up the hard work and stay focused on your goals, but also remember to celebrate your successes along the way. Best of luck in your journey towards perfecting your sprinting form!
😂😂😂
sound more like an english teacher than an athlete tbh
@@sileze5438 In Greece, teachers make more money than most track and field athletes. And since they're government employees, they can't be fired (there's a law about the job permanence of government employees). It's a highly desirable job, and not easy to pass the exams to get to university (which is free, but difficult to get to). So, nothing wrong with being a teacher in some parts of the world.
Degrasse apparently ran that 10.9 in baskeball shorts and borrowed spikes as well
thought he had Jordans on
Stories like this are common for gifted athletes. Run what you brung.
I believe you can run fast with bad form. This too me indicates that someone has good sprinting genetics
Julien Alfred is very similar to Pascal Mancini in that their massive quads give them a very unconventional look in their running style, but Alfred's results are undeniable.
Good form is how you build fundamentals but sometimes great athletes just have a form that works perfectly for them but would look and be inefficient for others. But at the average/casual level still focus on form a bit.
As a man who has seen someone running 19.32 with the running form of a duck, I can confirm you can run fast even with a bad form
Who was that. your not on about noah lyes are you
Also, the concept of bad form is misleading. Everybody has different muscle insertions, bone structure, birth defects, injuries, imbalances, etc. For example, Bolt has scoliosis. A track coach forcing everybody into one specific form would not be beneficial to some athletes.
19.32 Michael Johnson. His form was perfect for him.
Good stuff, but there are lots of people who have beautiful textbook form but are still slow. You are showing the extreme examples of improvement via form.
Nice job buddy. Never heard of that Mancini guy, that was cool to see. It’s an interesting topic because you need good form to have more speed, but you also need more speed to work with in order to have better form. It is also highly individual. Good point about high knees too - Coleman and MJ and SAFP don’t have very high knee drive yet have excellent speed.
If you are running a certain speed it’s always because of something physically about your as well as what your body does mechanically. Even if it looks ugly, someone fast is running fast for a reason, theyre always doing something better combined with their raw physical ability
THIS WAS REALLY CONFUSING GREAT VIDEO PER USUAL!!!!
You can be faster by improving form, but you cannot be *FAAAST* without genetics. Sprinting is the easiest athletic activity to figure out if you are out there wasting your time or not. I have seen regular jumpers improve their hops significantly via working out. I have never seen a slow dude become a 10.5 guy by working out, improving form, etc.
20 years old , 11.50 with 4 month of training i still have a lot to work on my technique,what do you think guys
Abby Steiner has the weirdest mechanics I’ve seen but she has wicked speed
I have heard an expert explain how her form is good for her.
That one arm, ya?
Thanks a lot . this is actually very helpul
Amazing video man. God bless you.
Damn, me running 11.35 at 17yo when I’m told I have exceptional form makes me realise how I have no natural talent whatsoever compared to these guys😭
U fast asf tho
I had a normal technique and ran 11.50 at 17 at 5'6" without much training on the field, I was playing basketball having 45 inches vertical, but again I never dedicated to train or to the sport. Never found the incentive especially being born in a country with literally 0 investment in sports
Hello. Your videos are so beautiful. All these sprinters are inside a good technique . Are little different from each other but all are so beautiful to see when runnning on the races. Thank you.
good breakdown vid cheers for this
i think a good example of this would be the 400m freshman, Quincy Wilson
I think Jacobs jumpped on the hot sauce rather that improve his technique which made such a drastic difference.
Usain Bolt: "Yes" 🤣
U laughing at your own joke?
@@GardenChess Yes.
Mboma Veronica Campbell brown michael Johnson Christophe Lemaitre Adam Gemili all had unusual running styles but it seemed to work
Don’t forget Abby Steiner.
@@ronnieyoung2075 her legs are fine it’s that arm swing same thing with degrasse. 🤣🤣🤣
bro nature talent is just so op istg
Speak English please.
Funny seeing a young Degrasse there
Valery Borzoff had great form
They definitely can! Rosie Ruiz won the 1980 Boston Marathon despite terrible technique.
When h have the raw power and fast twitch muscles you can
I new a kid my jr year he was a fr... worst form I've ever seen in any runner... the kid flewwwwwww. It didn't make sence... he dropped the baton in a huge meet and quit
Jacobs seems to have disappeared lately. Wonder what's going on with him?
he made indoor season this winter as last years.
You can be fast it depends with your strength,l think your strength matters
Actually strength doesnt matter as much as your bones. I saw a running competition between a skeleton and a pile of deboned flesh, guess who won? It was the plant that won.
If strength matters the most then bodybuilders should win every 100m
Guys who think it is about strength have a look of disbelief when they come across some skinny black dude wearing jeans and faster than everybody. You can see them rethinking the meaning of life in real time.
Stories like degrasse and the others just make me wonder: what else is out there that we don't know about?
TLTR: Yes. It's just less efficient.
steven seagal has the best running form
Is it just me or did Jacobs' form didn't change at all
Frankie Fredricks
Linford Christie
Genetics are so unfair
This media hide the reality of athletes ,,, because this video brainwash of genetics
Actually genes not come from naturally,,, whenever genes are process on nutrition,,fitness,, activity,, nourishment,,care ,,hardwork ,, consistency,,right direction then genes becomes better
Genes is just part ,,but excuses of being only genes is not good idea

Mancini would've ran a lot faster if he learned how to run relaxed. Dude is way too tense, putting too much effort on other body parts than his legs
He is racist.
You can't run fast with bad form. Form starts with the legs. All fast sprinters at all ages have similar timing in their leg cycles. If you're fast and you look sloppy at the bare minimum your legs have good enough form. The reason you're not fast is because of your form.
unless you're tyreek hill
Abby Steiner begs to differ.
It's 99% genetics and 1% form. Zion Williamson has absolute horrible form for jumping (as evidenced by him always getting hurt). But he can jump out of the gym because his genetics are allowing him to jump higher than what his body can safely handle.
@@jakemccoy His body can’t handle because he pushing almost 300 pounds not because of his form
@@jakemccoy You can't use injury as evidence of form quality. If I punch a rock really hard I will break something in my hand. I doubt my form would have any bearing on this. Zion jumps high because he jumps how you're supposed to jump and he has access to a lot of power. He gets injured because basketball was not a selection pressure when we were evolving.
Sprinting does require skill. But in reality sprinting is mostly brute strength.
