Running Mechanics
Below is a list of the most common form problems that I saw, in our 1st 2 days of practice. If there is one word you will hear from me over and over again it is ” FORM”…….. Coach Lee
1. Arms swinging across the midline of the body.
2. Tightly clenched fists, arms, neck and face.
3. Too much ‘backside mechanics’ - a lot of leg movement taking placebehind the body, but not much going on in front of the body.
4. ‘Reaching’ - foot strike takes place out in front of the body resulting inthe shoulders being slightly behind the hips instead of directly above orslightly in front of the hips.
5. Running heel to toe - the heels should never hit the ground duringSpeed work.
