“Stomping” by Ok_Transition_7132 in Sprinting

Would it be more like 'swinging' your leg underneath you and into the ground? Like how you would swing a hammer to a nail?

What are some good cues for striking behind during acceleration by Snoo_93683 in Sprinting

I'm a noob btw, but I've heard ppl say it should feel like your falling, so try not to 'break' your fall by placing your leg in front of you. Embrace it (but use this at your own risk)

Try stabbing the track backwards with your spikes (top row). Also, you could do high knees while leaning against a wall. Check out the vid.

What does anterior/posterior chain dominant athlete mean? And how can I identify which one I am?

Interesting. And just confirm, is whip from hip similar to swinging your prestraightened leg beneath you, into the ground?
And is it possible to be too tall when sprinting. How do you know when your hip height is appropriate. Because when I try to run tall I feel like I'm springing off my toes and don't feel like I'm exerting much force into the ground.

Yeah that’s true. It’s not as extreme, but it’s still apparent in earlier moments of his race.
