Race Walk Judging Training - A New Way to Train to Evaluate the Straighten Leg
Beginner and masters race walking has a higher occurrence of violating the straightened leg portion of the race walking definition than elite race walkers. With elite race walkers, unless there is an injury or an athlete is navigating a sharp turn, the occurrence of bent-kneed walking is relatively rare. However, it still occurs. While some cases are obvious, others are more subtle. As a judge, it's important to accurately determine if a walker is in violation of the definition without being subconsciously influenced by distractions from knobby knees, muscular legs, high socks, and more. This video presents elite walkers and allows you to evaluate when their knee straightens and ultimately to decide if they following the straightened leg portion of the race walking definition. Hopefully, if you work through all the examples, you will train your eye to better identify the infractions.

In Canada, we will have to face the same problems, if Evan Dunfee does not plan to go to L.A. 2028. Allen, I like your way of talking. Please stay motivated and fight to win the USA RW battle. Thanks Jeff for this brillant idea of interviewing people with a clear view towards what is coming up.
Let's hope Evan continues!!!
Great stuff!
Thanks
A great lesson.
Many thanks
Nice video.... Sir
Thanks
Lots of great ideas. Thank you Allen and Jeff for this interview.
Glad to provide it!
Thank you, I’m going to order the book. Shipping to UK might be interesting 😅
Hope you like it!
This is the absolute stupidest thing I have ever seen I mean honestly man
Ty for the tips
Glad they helped
By the way #245 is Phil Mcgaw 4'th place finisher
Thanks!
Race walking is good. But this channel is just stupid
most of the people in this video are actually cleaner than olympic athletes.
Yes, but they are way slower. Visibility is a combination of milliseconds off the ground, speed, and height of the foot through the swing, at least for the most part
Such a sham of a sport, you can run as long as it's undetectable to the human eye, the judges don't use slo-mo cameras - they should have sensors in their shoes.
Sensors are coming
@@Racewalk Good news, next we need to sort out heart rate monitors, part of a sport's skill should be knowing your own body not your bicycle, for instance, telling you what speed you can ride at.
excellent content thank you
You are most welcome
Seems like it would have been a whole lot easier if they just left the rule like the old days….keep contact
It's talked about
I watched so many “Olympians” trying to explain it and they are not even close to this video! Thanks so much!
See my other comment
How many times should you do this in a drill?
That's hard to say. It's a drill to get the feel of the motion. Usually just a few times, but it can be redone as a reminder. If it doesn't work after a few times, it's not going to help. Try another analogy or drill
Grazie 💜
You are welcome
No (foot) double contact, so none are really "walking"?
The rule hasn't required actual double contact for almost 30 years
I bet this is so much easier on the joints than running l!
Absolutely!
Hello sir, I am 37 years old,not a professional but I have walked a lot in my life,my job is like that , Am I too late for being professional? I have walked around 20km daily for 15years.
There really aren't professional walkers , but you could compete
@@Racewalk thanku sir.
What about 2024 please?
I haven't had time to make a new video, but you are right, it's time to make a new video. Let me see if i can get it together
Dudes jogging.
He is following the definition of the sport.
Amazing style,iv'e always wondered what is his stride length moving at this speed.
We have it somewhere I can't recall what it was. Likely > 1 m, and he's not particularly tall
Around 80% of race walkers are RUNNING at some point of the race. It's just a matter of who can cheat more undetected. This is a joke, not a sport. They don't even get disqualified when they are detected cheating, just getting a yellow card for "air time" that is RUNNING!
All sports have fouls for not adhering to the definition of a sport or rules. No different than the breast stroke in swimming.
Great intro! Well done!
Thanks
@@Racewalk for you? Too easy!
Wow! So cool this footage exists, great commentary. Nice "walk" down memory lane.
Thanks, i have more to post, just been swamped
es la perfeccion en la marcha-estilo-.
muy bien
This is so helpful as I'm trying to search for the how to. I've been running for 40 yrs but just turning to racewalking recently due to non stop injuries I've got for more than a year. This racewalk is giving me the ability to keep myself active like I used to be but at the same time still need to work on the new walking technique. I find there are more running coaches than walking coaches! I used to be a running coach myself. Really appreciate this clip.
Glad this helped
I am going to get into this! Someone watching this like me is going to the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
Sounds good to me
YESSSIR! Lets get it! Ima see you there
Me, too! See you in LA!
All the best.
I'm 39 years old and just now learned about race walking from the Paris Olympics. I'm soooo interested in this!!! And it's now my FAVORITE Olympic sport!!! I live in Nashville, TN and want to find a group to learn from.
Lol thanks for the explanation but this is so fucking stupid 😂
Very well explained, thank you
Glad it helped
just watched euro championship and they were cheating so much.
The Ukrainian was unbelievably off the ground.
Thanks much! Very helpful!👍🏻👍🏻
Glad it helped!
By the way it's very helpful for me because I am also a race Walker
Glad it helped
Can you please tell about repetitions and sets of these exercises respectively.....
That should be in the follow up videos.
That awkward moment when you freeze frame and the "better" guy has neither foot touching the ground.
The ruled do not require you to have both feet on the ground any more. It's to the human eye. Perez is fine.
@@Racewalk Must have been my inhuman eyes that see it, then.
@lornaj3310 well I guess you are the expert. The world Athletics judges would disagree with you.
@@Racewalk Eeeeeasy, tiger
@@lornaj3310 lol
😱 Promo`SM
I am not sure what that means ;)
Am doing my first competition at a local Senior Games in a few weeks. The first mile is usually a throw away, as it gets me loose. Hopefully this will help.
Let us know how you do!
Should I start.with right leg.or left leg ?
Does it matter?
Good video I'm walking for almost.25 years now I start race walking it's great sports in one year I improve my time I can walk.5 km with less 8 min per km my age is 59years
Thanks for the compliment. Keep up the good work!
This is the perfect example of what not to do. Indeed, we can see that he is suspended during each stride, like the vast majority of "walkers". Moral: race walking does not exist at high level. There is only running!
Unfortunately, you do not understand the rule. A slight loss of contact is acceptable by the rukes
I'm looking for ideal shoes - support under my ball of my foot (metarsal issues), flexible shoe good for a full marathon. Thanks in advance. Amazing video/advice - so glad I bumped into this.

Hello sir I doing brisk walking with pace of 9 to 11 kmph at max speed 12 km/ h But my technique is just different my leg not much move forward ,it just act like normal walking biomechanics And not bending my knee I usually brisk walking 5 km and 8 km ,when i don't sprint and running session for the strengthing of hamstring and legs My steps target 2.5 steps frequency at 1.1 metres steps length in one second But can you suggest me how much race walk is faster than high intensity brisk walk
Sorry, just seeing this now. Brisk walking works well until you get to 6:00 / km. Then you pretty much have to run. The alternative is to race walk and then you can go faster.
@@Racewalk usually race walk feel heavy and pressure compared to high intense walk My walking is not going on running form ,whenever my one foot contact at ground my average distance 4.6 to 5.1 km in 30 minutes
@@SamKumar-ny4go what do you mean pressure
@@Racewalk means pressure on heel like hot plate my heel feel heat in race walk form I don't like this form in this video
@@SamKumar-ny4go yes that makes sense
Why don't they walk normal? They all look like they being efed in the a. I never could have watched this sport without laughing.
Hi Nancy, I ordered the book on 03/25. Is there any way to track shipping? I live in the US so I really have no idea how long it might take to arrive. Looking forward to reading it!
