throughout the whole 100m it's a delicate compromise between pushing right through and getting your feet off the ground. If you have the flexibility to extend the hip properly your body may...

anywhere we can get this outside of the US?

I'm sure there are some unhappy people watching delays though John, especially since they have opened up the olympic viewing to Sky sports as well.

Anyway, I have decided to stay home this...

I've just phoned sky and they stated that the olympic coverage on Prime will be delayed and only highlights.

No John, I am in NZ, originally from the UK though. So I wouldn't get Prime to show live athletics on isky? I saw some facebook comments of the coverage and people were very unhappy.

Has anyone got any good ideas for catching the 100m in NZ? I will hopefully have internet TV by the weekend (whilst away), however im not even sure if the 100m will be televised properly here.

no it's ok, I knew that really, was just seperating the discussion, cheers

Lombards Paradox is irrelevant here. This is a simple issue of the knee flexing (along with the hip) to allow ground clearance for the foot out of the blocks. Watch youtube, watch yourself..

The...

when the back leg is brought forward out of the blocks, initially there has been a little knee extension as the back foot leaves the block but momentarily later the hip and the knee both flex to...

So sad, i met him once when he came to train at our indoor track, nice guy.

who said it extends it?

with hip flexion (back leg out of blocks) the knee also flexes (with hams) to lift the foot.

i've just done a quick search on that guy to the right of Bolt (Lerone Clarke) and could only find out his height at 5.10 but he does look more like low to mid 5ft. His pb is actually 9.99.

I noticed the greatest difference in hip height when I learned to fire my glutes properly. This allows the leg to extend properly, you will not sit and you should have alot more spring. It is of...

poor start and maybe panicking a little, his top end then bringing him back. He will probably get it right next time.

I believe the program was designed for a group of 43-45 sec male sprinters, although some may not have coped as well as Johnson.

I would certainly expect this session to have large influence on the sessions around it, and yet the entire program is so intense (based on this...

Not sure how youths would cope but maybe just half the number of weeks that the set number of reps are performed over ie. 15 x 200 for 2 weeks instead of 4 weeks, keep all times and rest consistent...

so if starting immediately following the post season break they will only finish this around the beginning of August the following year, presumably when a major event is scheduled.

I've just read about Johnsons tempo to speed end. transition whereby he starts with 16 x 200m in 36 seconds and each session reduces the reps by 1 and knocks 1 second off the time. After 10 session...

I have been realising the very same recently. A few years ago I was running around 11 dead at 12 stone, last year at 13 stone my times were closer to 12.00 even though my 50m was sub 6 sec. Bare in...

Get a diagnosis.

I am going to try them, starting next month.

yep, this is a tricky one. I am still thinking most would begin aerobic on the longer runs aiming to come home comfortable, then hit it on the 400m. Go too hard on sessions like these and you burn...

so all runs done as fast as possible? (or near to)
