The Start and AccelerationThe Start and Acceleration
Ron Grigg
Jacksonville University
An effective start and acceleration phase is a combination of proper concepts/technique with adequate levels of strength and power.
The BlocksThe Blocks
Power Side vs. Quick Side
2+ foot lengths to the front block
3+ foot lengths to the back block
Lead leg in back block for sprint hurdles
““On Your Mark”On Your Mark”
Hands in a bridge, directly under shoulders
Front knee to midline of arms
Front knee parallel to ground
Back knee perpendicular to ground
““Set” Set”
Double leg block pressure
Front leg angle
Rear leg angle
Balance- Front to Back, Left to Right
Block Exit CharacteristicsBlock Exit Characteristics
“Push, press” double leg drive
Powerful and big movements
Splitting of arms and thighs
high lead arm to avoid stumbling
Block Exit CharacteristicsBlock Exit Characteristics
Low path of the foot!
Ride the rebound
Don’t rush the frequency
Acceleration CharacteristicsAcceleration CharacteristicsMaintain neutral alignment of pelvis, spine and
head
Push through long axis of the body
Long complete pushes
Gradual progression of body angles (shin angles)
Acceleration CharacteristicsAcceleration Characteristics
Large range of motion in the limbs
Feet land behind the hips initially and move to underneath the hips
Gradual progression of horizontal pushes becoming vertical pushes
ACCELERATION WARM UPACCELERATION WARM UP JOINT MOBILITY
head circles, hip circles, trunk circles, ankle and wrist circles
WARMUP & MOVEMENT EXERCISES
prisoner squat-fwd with arm circles, single leg squat (R)-backward skip w/arms, single leg squat (L)-side slide & switch, wave squat-carioca & switch, front lunge-carioca step over & switch, wideouts-alt low skip and scoop, single thrusts-groucho walks, speed skaters-backward run
DYNAMIC MOBILITY
Supine SL raises, iron cross, scorpions, groiners, inverted splits and scissors, rockers into hurdle seat stretch, hurdle seat change, lateral & linear leg swings, thrust variations
ACCELERATION DRILLSWall Run-10 steps, body position, hip flexion, skate foot, active foot placement, shin angle
Bullet Belt, ACC Walk, ACC Skip (A Skips)-hip flexion, skate the foot, active foot placement, shin angle, push ACC Run-20 meters ankle cocked, feel the push from the hips, deep arms ACC Run & Release-release after 10 steps
ACCELERATION SPECIFIC
2 pushes-falling start, bow touch and go 4 pushes-3 pt start, 4 pt start
6 pushes-rolling lunge (R) rolling lunge (L) 8 pushes-pushup start, hop hop start
