Hey guys! This is Matt Urtu here (the Narrator and camera guy for the video😂 ) Thanks for all the views and comments guys! Noah and I just made this for his senior “how to” project (hence the music) and we uploaded this to TH-cam bc we didn’t have a flash drive to put it on, lol. We never thought it would take off like this 😂 For anyone watching this video who is interested in trying track, I can honestly say that track was the best time of both of our lives, no doubt!!! Noah is actually still running in track in college for Biola university. Anyways thanks for the corrections/suggestions in the comments, and we’re glad you enjoyed the video! :)
You gotta make sure your feet on completely against the blocks and there is no gap from ur heels to the blocks, because as you can see in your video, your foot went backwards into the block then you pushed forward when driving out of the blocks. But if your foot were completely against the block and there were no gap, it’ll shave time off your race and you’ll get out the blocks faster :)
You have a pretty good block start, I suggest that your back foot doesn’t double clutch. When your getting ready to set, and when you take off your back foot double clutches
4:23 I have a question. If you slow it down you can see your back leg (or the leg you fully extend) is way up high when you take your first step with that leg. I watch olympic sprinters and their leg/foot is always near the ground and I’m assuming it’s to quickly get their next turnover in. I know some olympic sprinters like Asafa Powell has toe drag but I’ve never experimented with that and I don’t want to. Is there an exercise or an easier way to keep that second leg close to the ground? If anyone doesn’t understand I’ll happily upload a video to show what I’m talking about. Thank you!
Buddy when you are on the blocks or when you are doin short distance dashes focus your mind on lowering the second leg and performing the toe drag.If you do it a lot of times and for a long time period your body will automatically lower your second leg and you will be able to perform the toe drag.Also you must imagine your self doing it.

Hey! I’m just starting track soon, I noticed the runners right foot was not fully touching the block until he pushed off. Is this regular protocol for sprinters, or just a personal tendency?
I thinks it's a personal tendency but my coach always teaches me to press both feet firmly against the pedals, maybe cuz a lot of guys just push with the front pedal instead of pushing with both
I usually put only 1 foot on the center line block, 1 feets on the front paddle and 2 feets on the back paddle. Should i change the center line block foot to 1 and half?
@@SwiftyyOfficial ideally keep the foot close to the ground so as to reduce the time in getting the foot to track - do not 'cycle' out of the blocks. I wouldn't necessarily coach dragging the foot but TOE drag drills are useful to teach full extension out of the blocks.
@@lenniefryer4536 Haha...Key thing here bud is the quicker you can get your foot to the track, the quicker you can use that energy to push you forward - that simply means you run faster. Some sprinters will drag there feet across the track in order to shorten the time between strides in the drive phase out of the blocks.
Since I saw only praise in the comments… this start is far from perfect. His shin angle is too high when he is at “triple extension.” You can see that he doesn’t quite get to triple extension but was close to it. Don’t round the shoulders when coming out of the blocks. Upper body should be at a 45 degree angle almost in a straight line with your back leg during triple extension. The angle of his front shin when in the blocks is also too high. It seems like he leads with his foot and almost lunges out of the blocks. You want to lead with your hips and not try to lunge out. If someone wants me to provide more info or tips or a good video I would be more than happy to help just reply to my comment.
keep it going...any discussion about technique is useful to many people who maybe are shy or whatever the reasons. So, for beginners, how do you determine which foot is your back foot and which foot is your front foot? I was instructed to imagine a big kick with a soccer ball...the leg you would kick is the leg that goes back...however, I also have heard that your power leg should be forward to drive and your speed leg should be back to get out fast. What's your take? the more details the better because this is great stuff! Thank you
@@fierce-green-fire8887 I have my “strong leg” or leg I would kick a football or whichever foot/leg I would jump highest with as my back leg. Your front leg in the blocks does 100% of the initial push off but you want your first step out of the blocks to be with your power leg which is why you want your power leg as your back leg in the blocks.This is typically what people do. If that doesn’t feel right you can try the other way and play around with it. See what’s comfortable and with which leg forward let’s you have your best starts. No problem man. Glad to help!
Dear Noah. Congratulations for the video. I am athletics teacher from Brazil and I would like to place an order. I've been writing a book on athletics teaching for a few months now. I would like to ask your permission to use prints of part of this video in the text. So I can illustrate improving the block start. Thanks in advance.
@@brandonharris3852 hes asking a fucking question, not making a pount, also why are you comparing someone elses talent to rival somebody elses, like whats your issue??
Suresh- triple extension refers to full extension of 3 joints. The hip joint, the knee joint and the ankle joint. In this video there is a freeze frame where the athlete has driven the right knee and left arm forward. Look closely at the left side. Before that left foot has left contact with the block, he has fully extended his hip, knee and ankle so that you could draw a straight line from the crown of his head through his foot. Without triple extension, an athlete can not take full advantage of their power.
ummmmm when you go to set you do not go all the way up because it will be harder to get up from that angle were as,half way up you can go directly forward and drive properly:)
@@zayzaydavis were you like highschool 14 or 8th grade 14 ? I believe you ppl say I lie about my time too. last year when I started track in 7th grade I ran an 11.57 in the 100m.

Keep in mind in his thumbnail, the leg in front was the one in the back on the blocks. That's an insane jump!

This is my project in my class
I usually put only 1 foot on the center line block, 1 feets on the front paddle and 2 feets on the back paddle. Should i change the center line block foot to 1 and half?
It’s due to the size of the base. Those types of blocks are shorter than other hs blocks.
Try 2 feet to the first block, 3 to the back block
You’re supposed to slide your non dominant foot for extra reach for your first steps
No. If you do that In spikes, stumbling is a very high possibility. And a stumble in an Olympic race will cost you it.
