So easy to overstride your starts. That acute angle cue is brilliant.
Thanks for watching bro
This is such a simple yet informative video. Ive really been struggling with my times and after this i watched my sprinting video in slo mo. I think this cue could help alot! Thanks for all you do!!! Most under rated channel on youtube!
thank you my man! i've been struggling to stop overstriding during acceleration, my foot would go way out infront especially on the second step.
Thanks for watching, I hope it helps! Training your hamstrings in the off season can help as well.
Great advice thanks. Will try this shortening of the stride at the start. Cheers.
I've seen this video a few times before but after watching it again, it describes the same problem I am in now. overstriding, knee angles opening up and the cue you mentioned, feel calf to hamstring near the knee, to avoid it from opening up, it's like it's the first time i'm hearing you say this. Will try this. It's a drill if done over and over again will become second nature, programmed, hopefully I can get this irritating problem solved.
this is great, i try to fix this for some time now. will try it out.
will try this,, thanks.
Great video Cody. For my block session today my coach told me to try and shorten my first step and not overstride so this cur may be very helpful. Will try it out. Thanks
Lmao yeah I know him from there too
gotta love r/sprinting
@J R ye lol thats me
My starts or horrendous but thankfully my top end makes for it, and Cody you’re about to become the sole reason I have a shot at CIF this year and I thank you for it especially with all the acceleration oriented stuff
You'll get the starts down over time man. Thanks for the kind comment and best of luck at CIF. I never qualified beyond league in HS, so nice work aiming for state!
@@ATHLETE.X league I’m in is weird, all garbage schools and then one godly team that has 3 sub 11 runners, if you’re not too 3 at league you have to get an even quicker time to qualify for CIF, something like 11.08 or something that’s isn’t possible with my sort of start. But ay we got like 8 months and never even college after that
I think it's not so much about the knee casting out. I believe the problem is a lack of power so the body doesn't project far/long enough for an effective leg switch.
Yes we can easily switch our legs quick enough but the main goal should be horizontal projection.
I found a big problem is forcing triple extension. Obviously the front leg only can attack back down (hammer) if the back leg swings forward at the same time. So if we focus too much on extension, we also subconsciously delay the hammer action. This delay will lead to a drop of the COM and finally a bad position.
The solution is maybe to focus more on a fast powerfull recovery leg motion. Not necessary a high knee but a powerfull thigh pop motion.
I'll be applying this technique, I've been overstriding all these times
Good video dude!
Thanks Ronan!
Hey Cody,
Quick question - I’m an amateur hobby long sprint runner (400/800 - sometimes step up to Mile and down to 60/100/200) and I have a pretty heavy work schedule. With the heavy schedule, I try to consolidate workouts to make sure I hit everything I need to be successful. With regards to rest between sets, would you see any issue with doing core as a superset between sprint sets, for example if I’m down 3 300s on a 12-minute interval all out (lactate workout), would doing some core/lower back work during those 12 minutes do any harm to the set? My intuition says no because no large muscles are being engaged and the heart isn’t beating super quick. Thoughts?
Hey Cody, are there any other scientific books than ''Science and practice of strength training'' by Zatsiorsky and ''Periodization'' by Bompa? I really wanna learn about anaerobic endurance. But there's only bro science on the web and very little info in the two books
You've improved Cody. Can see.
Thanks Justin! I feel like over the past couple months something has clicked.
Great video as always Cody. What track spikes (non-super shoes) would you recommend for regular track sessions?
Thanks Jorge! I like the Superfly Elite 2 for a normal pair of spikes. The Adidas Finesse are good too, but some of the stitching broke on mine.
@@ATHLETE.X Thanks!
great video cody!what do you think about one leg hops timed over 20-25m for acceleration.
Thanks Chase! Its a good exercise, but I'd probably focus more on the quality of the ground contacts and your posture rather than going for time.
Really good video!
Thanks for watching!
I don’t mind this cue but could this potentially lead to engaging the hamstrings too much during knee drive and producing high heel recovery?
I have a question sir is triple extension necessary to accelerate fast. Or could pushing hard replace that or a cue what are your thoughts ?. The reason I say this is because I have very good shin angles but I don’t triple extend to much but enough you know in the drive phase. My 30 meter is currently 4.13 seconds
Hip extension is important but triple extension is not
Preaciate the advice, playing football I never had a track coach so all the stuff I learned about form was online
Ps I saw your ig story, I’m a Mechanical Engineering major
Thanks bro! As far as the mini-project, I am trying to build a motorized pulling device to do overspeed.
@@ATHLETE.X I have a deep list of things that’s I might make and that’s been on there. I haven’t had to much hands on experience so I’m still doing some very basic projects to learn but I’ll definitely keep that in mind and hit you up if I make it
What’s your thoughts on acceleration ladders to help
The tape/stick drill can be helpful, but I think whether it helps or not would depend on getting the distances right.
What's your 100m Pb ?
4 weels to return back on track
What's your view on the atomic workout?
What’s that? I’ll have to look it up

Sir please workout plan new
But it looks like you lose the low heel recovery. Unless there is a way to keep the heel recovery low and have a good forward knee drive.
Personally I don't believe that low heel recovery is a KPI nor beneficial for all athletes. It works for some but its overhyped.
@@ATHLETE.X low heel recovery makes me feel less powerful in my first 5 steps
@@tsicksprints424 It only matters on the first 3 if you're going to implement it, also for longer limbed athletes.
@@nickyt4391 it only should matter for the actual dragging action in the first three steps but when I do toe drag or get very low heel recovery it makes my first 5 steps feel less powerful
@@tsicksprints424 you shouldn’t focus on it. Being low should make it happen
What’s up man are those ASICS living up to the hype ? I’m thinking that’s my next pair
I like them a lot, but I do notice that the area around the outside edge near the pinky toe is kind of wearing down. I think its from sitting on the track with them on, plus outward pressure on the shoe since I have kind of wide feet. Basically if you want a very stiff, bouncy, raw feel then they're a good pair. Opposite of the soft feeling the maxfly has.

I like your stuff, but my problem with this video is you're then missing low heel recovery for the first 3 strides. You're cycling from your first step instead of sweeping. I appreciate your que is to prevent over-striding, and this is great for real beginners, but for yourself, specifically, you're missing out on faster times for yourself by creating a longer path for your foot to travel. Your foot comes up and then forward, rather than popping your knee forward and allowing your toe to swing low and be closer to the ground, to make contact quicker.
Low heel recovery is overhyped everything your saying just isn't true
You don't create a longer path just bc your feet is high
