An effective arm action is essential for sprinting success. Proper arm movement helps increase the leg drive, maintain balance, and reduce fatigue.
As coaches, parents, and mentors, we all want to connect with the children we work with. It’s important to build a rapport with them in order to get the best out of them, but how can we do this?
As a coach or parent of a young athlete, you know that not every competition will go according to plan.
Teaching kids effective sprint acceleration at the start line can be challenging. They may have problems with delayed reaction times and incorrect body positioning. However, coaching cues and analogies can help them understand and execute the movement more effectively.
Pushing kids for early success can cause burnout, injury, and loss of enjoyment.
