hey what's up everyone morey croson here and today i'm going to be going over what
turnover is and why it is important and we're going to start the video right now
all right so i recently got this comment where you know i'm always talking about turnover and
the importance of turnover and you're just like what is turnover can you explain exactly what it
is i looked online i just saw that nobody really explained it very well so i will go ahead and
explain what turnover is especially essentially what turnover is it's the time where your foot
is off the ground when you're sprinting right so when you're we're talking about the turnover
we're talking about when your feet you can see my left leg is coming off the ground right now
you know it's the time between when my foot touches or leaves the ground to when it touches
back down on the ground and essentially what it just means is like how fast you are able to
move your legs right so people when they describe somebody is having you know really great turnover
it's somebody that is really quickly you know cycling their legs essentially is is what turnover
speed is and and why you know ends up being so important is because when it comes to running
faster you obviously want to be able to turn those legs over faster so the faster that you're able to
you know go from your foot coming off the ground back behind you to driving back out in front
extending and then pulling back down the better off you're gonna be as a runner so the whole idea
of being able to you know go into the specifics of improving the turnover has to do with being able
to improve your top end speed and being able to uh really yeah get to get yourself to be able to
run faster so some of the key parts of being able to improve the turnover have to do with your spine
position right so if there if the spine is too far forward too far back uh it ends up being a little
bit more difficult to be able to control different parts of your your sprint when you have it too
far forwards you have a tendency of spending too much time with your leg back behind you and then
if you're too far backwards you're not able to generate enough power to be able to quickly and
efficiently get the leg out in front of you right so with different parts of the the turnover end up
impacting your performance in different ways right and so what ends up being the most important when
it comes to improving your top end speed is being able to get and that's the thing with turnover is
it's there's different parts of it that go into the different phases so when you're starting
there's a part of the turnover that ends up being different mechanics in your drive phase which ends
up being different mechanics from your top end speed here i'm on my top end speed where i really
want to be pushing more vertically off the ground right to be able to drive those legs right up and
through i i see a lot of people that that you know leave comments and talk about having long strides
and you know how that makes a big difference and blah blah blah blah i i would say that you know
that you want to have a good balance of both so if you end up having too long of a stride you're not
able to get a good turnover it usually means you have a little bit weaker core it also means that
you're not able to generate very good horizontal force before your foot is touching the ground
right so then when your foot touches the ground you have to spend a lot of time on the ground
before you come back up and then you end up just having a really really long stride length right
so you really want to be able to master being able to push off the ground really quickly as soon as
your foot lands and comes back behind you right so the better that you're able to push off in this
phase right as soon as my foot's getting behind me that the sooner i could push off the more vertical
i'll get which will also make it so i can get my foot out in front better which will make it so
that i can get more contact or more force when my foot actually hits the ground which will improve
my overall speed so again turnover when at the end of the day ends up being that time where your foot
is off the ground right and there's people that have really good turnover that are still not super
fast when it comes to you know running the 40 in great times 100 great times and not just because
they're not able to get enough vertical force off the ground right they just are moving their legs
really really fast not really going anywhere you want to be able to get plenty of vertical force
off the ground in order to be able to utilize that turnover to pick up a lot of distance going
forward so some of the key things that i think are important when it comes to understanding
turnover and how to develop it why it's important is also what i wanted to go over in the video here
