Fantastic paper by @KenClarkSpeed et.al that emphasizes there are many ways to solve the acceleration problem, there is no single "perfect" strategy or a single "ideal" technique, even at the very elite level. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…View quoted post on X
www.tandfonline.com Spatiotemporal acceleration strategies in elite American male and female sprinters: between-group... We investigated maximal accelerations from starting blocks in 24 elite American sprinters (12 males, 100 m personal best 9.89 ± 0.09 s; 12 females, 100 m personal best 10.87 ± 0.09 s). Two trials p... For practitioners working with competitive sprinters, results in this article provide robust normative group mean practice data at the highest level of T&F, while simultaneously illustrating the variety of kinematic strategies that can be employed to achieve elite performance.View quoted post on X
Excited to announce our latest publication examining initial acceleration in elite Americans sprinters, published in Sports Biomechanics.
This sample of athletes included male sprinters with a group mean 100m PR < 9.9s and female sprinters with a group mean 100m PR < 10.9s!View quoted post on X
