Speedskating Deconstructed!
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 18 มี.ค. 2021
Great speed skaters achieve top speed with as little effort as possible. When everything is in synch it's like magic and feels so good. Speedskating Deconstructed! can rapidly accelerate your grasp of what you need to do to achieve greater speed with less effort. The best do less to get more. That’s why they make it look easy and less-skilled athletes make it look difficult. Poor skating is conflict and waste. Superior skating is fluid, synergistic movements and sequences. No added friction or drag, just clean speed. You become an efficient system doing only what is needed. These videos deconstruct this optimum technique by the world's best skaters and explain how you can do it on the ice yourself. Master these principles and you'll improve timing, power, and efficiency while minimizing energy cost.

Jordan Stolz: Produces rest in his straightaway push
I come from the "Double Push Tutorial by Joey Mantia" and I believe he talks about how important it is to actively create PRESSURE down into the ground as not just sitting on the skate but actually directing all the strength of the muscles down into the skate and into the ground as if it was a single-leg squat. Do you think this take is correct?
I feel so sorry for Sham , Sham is the 2nd best horse in history, But Shams problem was he had to race against the greatest horse of all time
King of double push!😊
Kulikov's record was set on Alma Ata's Medeo track which to us (Dutch junior speed skaters) was a mythical places where magical stuff happened. I later learned that besides altitude Medeo was build surrounded by mountain walls which in the right conditions guaranteed a tailwind around the track. Kulikov wasn't that spectacular on other tracks, like many Sovjets back in the day. The Olympics were completely different from other competitions, because we only had allround championships (500, 5000, 1500 and 10000) and sprint championships (500 and 1000 X2). There weren't podiums for specialists apart from the Olympics. Hilbert van der Duijm said that the Olympics weren't all that important for speed skaters. A lot of his countrymen didn't agree though. Heiden met speedskaters in the Olympics who didn't have a podium to perform in other races, which made his gold medals even more special.
Rip my favorite teacher
It's hard to judge, but Coffey, depending on his load out pads, etc, was probably skating around out there with an additional 3-4 kgs. Each skate was roughly 1.2 kgs each. So, Imagine the edge control and acceleration he would have today with modern sticks, skates, gloves, pad, etc. We also have to factor in the ice quality of his era. The dude was a fantastic, fluid, skater. Not as graceful as say, Le Fleur, but who is? He was certainly quicker and stronger. Thats saying something when both guys had completely different job desciotions.
Love this analysis of technique😊
As a short track speed skater in east USA I can say that this is a good stratigy but you interpreted it wrong going on the outside can avoid crashes but is a lot easier to block she spent many year in Korea learning how to skate without noise
Eric is me
Wow! Did not expect him to be that light 😳

Great mentor RIP🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 A fan from China
Just found this page, have watched 3 videos already excellent knowledge and break downs very much enjoyed. Thank you
I miss Jeff...
Many of us do.
I miss you so much Jeff😕
but when you move your knee and hip into the next push you create horizontal distance isn’t that pushing to the side? or do you mean the mental que of pushing to the side results in the wrong technique?
…btw: you can apply the double push technique either by using glutes and/or upper leg muscles.
I strongly believe that also inliner use bodyweight and not just pushing the leg outside
Rest in peace Jeff, My online mentor. I learned a lot from you. Thanks Jeff❤️ I’m gonna miss you buddy😕

Not to mention the big heart pumping blood with a constant supply of oxygen supplying energy to accomplish those repetitive strides. How many strides did he perform in each race? Also, the fact that he had efficient coordination and a smooth powerful reach made for not lunging but a four-footed leap. Watch the two front feet reaching and pulling forward, then the two back feet pushing off, quickly leaping the 25 feet. He achieved loft.
Also, there is no comparison to speed skating because Secretariat is not wearing skates. Analyze the movement as if the racehorse is a dancer (ballet steps are broken down and described minutely). He pushes against the ground and the ground pushes back; otherwise the ground would fall away. There is static friction, not a bit of glide. And a dancer starts every jump or leap with a preparation of the entire body. The dancer focuses his attention on alignment and weight, pushing down into the floor before pushing off to go up. The French Term is "plie", which means "to bend". Look at Secretariat's legs, especially his rear legs. Lots of bending going on before pushing against the ground to extend his reach. In sports this is closer to the last two steps before the flight of broad jumping.
Yeah that huge heart was an anomaly and a definite advantage! But technically Secretariat's feel and timing were unsurpassed.
Very cool explanation why Secretariat was such a great racehorse. Thanks!
Jim Powers the back ground picture is that in Austria. Looks very familiar. I'm up in the julian alps. not far from weissensee. at my sister in laws 80 birthday.

Do you have a video that highlights the middle that's is discouraged? I see Vik in above video does no middle correctly, I'd like to see a skater with the middle we're trying to eliminate from our stride if you have one. Thank you.
Daniel, thank you for the idea! The problem is highlighting someone doing something wrong. I've gotten in trouble with that before. I'll think of something. Cheers!
I'sn't it beneficial to get in a pace line and mimic the skaters doing it right and mimic their technique?
It can be. If you know what yo are doing and can incorporate other skaters' better technique and timing into your own skating when you are either alone or in the lead. But you don't want to do the bulk of training behind someone. Thank you again!
Так сравнивать технику бега, не коректно. Один спортсмен входит в поворота другой на середине дсьанции. При входе в поворот техника меняется.
larklarklark - I am not sure what you mean. Can you explain it better to me so I can reply? Thank you very much for the comments!!
Excellent elaboration of the more condensed verbiage I’m familiar with on this matter - shared by a small man with a large voice echoing in the West Allis night; “PUSH AND COME OVAH!” (And you all probably read that in a New York accent…)
Thanks Pat!! Miss that guy!
Really enjoying your channel … great analyses, tips, and really love your motto ‘doing this together’ and how you give credit to colleague coaches and skaters 😊
Thank you very much for the comments and watching, @user! All the best!
Jeff, what is your opinion about polarised training for ice skaters/ during ice-skating? This would mean skating most of time of the week on a very slow speed to enlarge (basic) endurance and to do only once a week an interval training on a very high intensity. Because according the vision of polarised training you can do only once a week a very high intensity session. And polarised training intends to avoid the trainings at treshold speed. Or should you completely skip this low speed ice training and do it on a bike? But this would mean you can only skate once a week on the ice.
Moundstra - It's a real dance out there on the ice vs. other sports like running or cycling and this is where the "finesse" of a program comes into play. The skating position has a baseline of lactate that other sports do not and also the muscle memory needs to be exceptionally attune to high speed. Therefore to do slow skating in my mind, is basically a mistake and needs to be minimized. For example, use slow skating only to EXAGGERATE movements, to sit deeper, get more amplitude in the push and push longer (make it down the straight in 4 strokes, for example) or other "drill type" work. Long slow laps, to me, are contraindicated to success. My athletes, in a non-racing block, would do 3 very high intensity ice workouts per week, sometimes 4, with a lot of easy stuff off the ice, plus a maintenance of all the other stuff - functional strength, cardio, agility, local muscle endurance, plyos, etc. The ice is SACRED ground, to me. Thank you and I hope this helps you!
@@speedskatingdeconstructed5435 Jeff, thank you, it clarifies. I also do marathon skating (50 or 75 laps), average lap speed 35 sec (in a group, inner ring), fastest laps 30 sec. For best preparation, makes it sense to skate once a week, in a group, 1 hour with an average lap speed of 39 sec/lap (so 85-90 laps)? Or better do intervals at higher speeds instead? And solo maybe?
@@moundstra1 Thank you, so happy to assist!
Dous that mean that you have to slow down a bit in the first lap of the 1500 to have more even laps?
Well, yes. That would afford a better pace, but it can't be too slow, you don't want to have too much left at the end. Practice intervals at race pace.
By the way - what do you think about Jordan Stolz joining NED pro skating team Zaanlander and starting to work with coach Jillert Anema in addition to work with coach Bob Corby?
I think it will be good for Jordan.
Would be great to have full video from Mitch’s seminar. That could help lots of skaters and coaches around the globe....
Alex, ask Mitch! I'm sure he'd be happy to provide it!
Нильс не самый сильный спортсмен, есть сильнее его. У нильса отличается техника бега, от всех остальных конькобежцев. Его результат высокой скорости, заключен в технике бега. Техника бега Нильса, отдичается от техник бега конькобежцев , всего мира! Это хорошо видно на повороте. Нильс выбегает повороты, не теряя секунд. Все остальные теряют. Потому что их научили не правильно.
You got my e-mail, Jeff?
Can you please resend it to jeffreyklaiber@gmail.com?
Техника поворота мне не нравится. Переносить правую ногу через левый конек, это потеря равновесия и силы толчка, левой ноги. Прямая мне нравится за счет того что хорошо работают плечи и спортсмен попадант в момент отталкивания, за счет правильного положения плечь. Запас скорости еще есть. Технику бега можно улучьшить.
I wish I could read your comments!
I translated it. Thank you Lark! Turns deliver the speed. Like them or else!
There is an argument for the 150 day season. Where I live in Norway, we have ice up to 4 months a year, from early November to early March. That means that our skaters only just get on the ice (at home) by the time of the junior World cups. We either have to travel, or hope the inline track stays dry through October, to be at our best (we don't really have good access to ST-ice here) in November. But this is part of what makes coaching as much an artform as a science ;)
having less ice can actually be an advantage
@@speedskatingdeconstructed5435 that is definitely true for developed skaters. I would argue that it is less so for younger juniors. Anyway, we make it work. You have to work with what you have.
Yes! Yes! Yes! Wish I could elaborate on this but definitely limited on TH-cam or Facebook.
Peter - thank you, not sure why you can't comment??? I'd love to hear your views!
Die schedule is crazy..
my language is pick up and reach forward. What about these freaks saying double push.
Double push is the name of the technique in inline speed skating. And there is more pushing in inline, as you have less grip to throw your weight against and away from you skate.
Thank you for the comment Malcolm. Where are you skating and what is your level?
Thanks Jeff
Hi Jeff, I send you a speedskate video of my self in your mail. But i don’t know if the quality is good enough to analyse the video. Maybe I need to send it from somewhere else. Let me know pls. Thank you!!

Is it true that joey cheeck was coached by ryan shimabukuro? Because he has a lot in common with jordan stolz how he enters the turn and his technique in the turn
Ryan coached Joey, but Ryan does not coach Jordan.
This guy was awesome
INCREDIBLE. Thanks for looking EZ4!
Btw I’ve been skating a lot since December . I’ll send you footage when it’s a little better. I feel like it’s pretty obvious what’s wrong now.
I am rewatching this and if you are a coach out there have a team of people who want to do TP, you have to become ONE, egos, technique, training. it is now a really specialized battle and fun to see who can be the most efficient. Tell your skaters to become a unit, and put there egos away.
More Than a Feeling!!
Thank you for watching, Jan!
