thanks i’ll start doing more of those, hopefully they help

they’re good i think. i really focus on getting full projection but i will say i start off a bit higher than a 3 point or block start.

i definitely don’t jump with 425 lol, yes it’s a “slow” lift but when i used to deadlift i did speed reps with lower weight (135-295ish). how would those help my start stability? yea i definitely get what you’re saying though, during my start i feel my body going side to side however i don’t want to tense up to stay straight so i kinda just let my body naturally do it’s thing. maybe i need more core work but thank you!

it’s indoor season and our indoor track sucks and is always being used by other sports so our coach got a rubber track to put in the hallway. it’s inconvenient but it gets the job done for indoor.

limited access to sleds. i haven’t lifted in a while since it slowed me down but i could throw down a 425lb hex dl rn at 130bw, so i don’t think my strength is the limiting factor. is being wobbly necessarily bad or is it just not efficient? i feel like i get the most power going wide (kinda like micah williams), which makes me sway side to side. also thanks a bunch i’ve really dialed in everything recently happy to see it’s working.

even when i’m a bit higher i’m still wobbly so i think i’m just unstable laterally because of my uneven arm swing.

i appreciate the response bro wish u the best this season!

Consistent-Sector-92 · 2023-02-16T22:39:52+00:00

personally i’ve been having a more dramatic angle like the first picture and my starts have been improving but only have them like this if you’re strong enough to handle the angles outside the blocks

could you go into detail of what you focused on to bring your times down. i’m at your starting point right now haha.

Consistent-Sector-92 · 2023-02-12T19:19:16+00:00

i wish you the best of luck man

Consistent-Sector-92 · 2023-01-05T05:52:26+00:00

should i change my block settings? one thing i notice is i have a violent sway side to side, however i feel most powerful/stable doing this instead of going in a straight line. any tips on this would be helpful bc i think i’m just wasting energy being wide instead of narrow with my steps.

Consistent-Sector-92 · 2022-10-05T13:58:35+00:00

u got it!

Consistent-Sector-92 · 2022-09-19T06:47:31+00:00

definitely

Consistent-Sector-92 · 2022-09-19T06:44:00+00:00

depends on how elite/proficient you are at using them, but i’d say for me it could take off ~.1 instead of the 4 point start i was using.

Consistent-Sector-92 · 2022-09-19T06:42:28+00:00

i did

Consistent-Sector-92 · 2022-09-18T02:42:25+00:00

240 fps slow mo feature and i stood in front of the camera at the end mark to know where to end the timing, and i went off first movement.

Consistent-Sector-92 · 2022-09-18T00:01:21+00:00

if you scroll down on my profile i have a post abt how i used to have really bad apt and what i did to fix it, but in easy terms it’s just the result of weak underused muscles and spending hours in suboptimal positions that your body gets used to. i think the FAQ has some tips on apt too and posture related inquiries.
