24. Summary of the Drive Phase 75% of total acceleration achieved in first 7 steps-The Drive Phase The application of Horizontal force is the key component in the drive phase Piston action for heel recovery in this phase of sprinting.
38. Something a bit more controversial! If we expect our athletes to be able to perform these complex movement skills when do we practice them?
39. Something a bit more controversial? If we expect our athletes to perform these movements during a race/training session – how do we prepare them to execute these complex movements?

What do you notice about this graph? 73% by 10m! How much time do we as coaches work on the first 20m, where 85% of the acceleration occurs? This speed determines you potential to compete during the race. Energy distribution idea – even for 100m, not just 400m.
It is ground contact time that is the key issue here. How often do you have a chance to influence the race? 40 opportunities! When in contact with the ground.
