hey what's up everyone morey croson here and today we're gonna be going
over how joseph found belay can improve his start and we'll start the video right now
this is the newest edition of the performance reach your individual goals you don't want to
talk about straight lines we also want to talk about your delivery quick we break
down your video let's make you into the quarterback i know you can become
all right so Joseph Fahnbulleh here has quickly taken over the track and field world this year
this is somebody who uh really i mean it started last year with uh some of the things he was doing
within the 200 but he's he's started off this year with a bang and really developing you know
if not the top turnover speed overall right now at least you know top two top three uh and definitely
the best within the ncaa in terms of you know just pure top end speed and it's really exciting to be
able to see you know his overall development and look at some of the things he's able to do
that are very very effective when it comes to stop speed but today we're going to be going over his
start because that ends up being you know his very obvious achilles heel here and so we just want to
go over some of the things that stand out that he could potentially work on here so i really like
a lot of things that marcel jacobs does in terms of just overall technical expertise of sprinting
and so we're going to compare you know marcel jacobs here to joseph on belay so we've got the
first step right we're going to look at the first step and the big thing that stands out is a lot
longer of a step right we'll go from the time that foot leaves the back uh of the block 953 that is
to when the foot hits the ground right so 0.27 seconds and the 200 is going to be a little bit
different but you're still trying to get the get out quick on on the 200 so it's not like the start
um you know the importance of the start decreases a lot so we got .63 here with jacobs
2.86 three seven here on the you know joseph on belay before we got that front foot down and then
we got seven okay point two three here all right so it's definitely a big difference right point
three seven to point two three before that first foot hits the ground okay and we can also now see
when that foot hits the ground he's able to be really stable but again you know a long swing time
so we'll even we'll look at this one too we'll go nine seven three
okay so he keeps that foot down well just takes him a long time to get that foot back
down underneath him you know or back down onto the ground 0.03 you know so 0.3 seconds there
and we'll look at the same thing we got seven eight
not as bad right 0.06
okay this was o so this is 0.26 but still four hundredths of a second right so just
in these first two steps marcel jacobs has been able to shave two tenths of a second
right so .04 on this one and then you know about one seven on the other one okay so um
that ends up being important right and you could also see he's very quick to be able to stand
up a lot like he's really trying to get good horizontal action good horizontal pull overall
and he also is pretty quick to start getting those heels to start coming up right this is going to be
his his fourth step right he's starting to be able to extend really far back behind him we look to
see you know marcel jacobs how quick he is to be able to get his foot back off right so he's here
look at how fast he is to try to get that foot off he's not even getting into that full extension
where you can see how far back behind the body Joseph Fahnbulleh's foot is right so that makes
it a lot harder to be able to cycle your leg through and it makes that transition time a
lot longer then you could also see you know about five steps in he starts to really have
a pretty high heel recovery right and it takes a lot longer for you know marcel jacobs to really
start lifting up those legs to to a high degree and in some cases you know his legs don't really
get up too high at all right he's trying to keep those legs almost pretty low to the ground
and i think Fahnbulleh does a good job of doing that once he gets to his top speed but really you
know when he's first starting off he has a little bit less efficiency with that you know it was
really going in and just bringing the feet up way too far back too high up behind him and that makes
it so it's a lot more difficult for you to be able to be quick right when you're first starting off
it's a lot about quickness it's a lot about how much distance you're able to pick up per step
and it's a lot about just overall efficiency and then you build that especially in the 200
then you build that into that top speed right but if for him you know he's so slow to be able to get
himself in get himself going i mean you know it ends up being good here but if we look like
right here that's a pretty good leg swing right i really like that efficiency of how he's swinging
those legs through okay we look at this that's this is a higher this is probably a higher heel
here on step like six or seven than he had as he's getting into top speed right and so when
we go and break down what is the cause of him not getting great starts right it's a little bit with
the body angle right it's not a ton with the body angle i think he's landing in not a bad spot so
it's not necessarily the landing position it's uh how long it takes his feet to get down right
and it's how the the efficiency of the turnover or the swing phase we'll call it swing phase
that's a little bit more of the technical term right the time that the foot is off the ground
how efficient are you in that time period right being able to get that foot off the ground quickly
get it right back on the deck on the ground is a critical way of being able to help you in you
know getting through your start getting into your top speed uh well getting into your drive phase
and getting into your top speed and you know again fondue laden could probably help himself with some
things that he does within you know like his chin and his and his body but at the same time you know
the bigger issues are how much time it takes him to get the feet down and how long is he cycling
delays i think once he can improve that that's going to really make a big difference in his
you know sprint again overall and and those are two technical things that are not that hard to be
able to change you know so he's definitely gonna be able to change those and it'll make a big
difference so um yeah as always guys thanks for watching if you like the information go and click
that thumbs up down below subscribe the channel if you have any questions comments or recommendations
you can leave those down below always trying to provide the best information for you guys you
know here's going to be another great video to be able to help you understand you know where you can
be technically deficient in your movement patterns that could end up really making a big difference
and this ends up being beneficial for you in any way right if you're watching this like man i wish
i could have gotten this type of information about you know my start or my drive phase or my top end
speed phase we do have a speed breakdown option it is a great great great deal that we're doing with
those speed breakdowns and so i really really recommend you guys checking that out it's in
the description down below and also check out the speed program i mean really at the end of the day
you guys need some coaching right you need some technical advice to be able to help you on being
able to improve your top end sprinting or just your speed in general it could be even your start
right if you send over your start and we're able to really understand you know where are some of
the things that you could be you know hindering your ability to get into your top speed that could
really make a big difference in how you end up being able to translate some of the things
you're doing within your practice and to actually performing at a high level uh when it comes to
you know competitions and things like that but if we're not implementing the right type of
information uh we're not working on the right type of skills or the right body positions it's really
gonna be hard to be able to make big changes so you know that's really what we focus on within the
breakdowns is how the biomechanics work how we can make it so you're more efficient that's why i'm
always big on on either doing the speed program or the breakdowns because i know that that coaching
is going to really make a big difference and i've seen a lot of progress of the athletes that have
either done the breakdowns or are you know working with me on a daily basis or weekly basis so again
yeah if you like the information click that thumbs up if you want to check out some of the stuff that
we offer check out the description down below and thanks for watching we'll talk to you soon
