Sprinting is seen as a simple natural activity, however, it is more technical and intricate than it really is. This article talks about the propper techniques of sprinting and goes through step by step how the mechanics corielate to acceleration. It also metions some interesting facts such as taking up to ten years for an elite sprinter to fully reach their best based on their technique.
I find it important to teach athletes at a young age the proper technique of sprinting, no matter what sport. With the foundation of proper form and techniqe, athletes will have less to learn and will be more quick to adapt to their chosen sport.
