hey what's up everyone morey croson here and today we're going to be
helping you out with the 40 and we'll start the video right now
this is the newest edition of the performance side reach your individual goals you don't want
to just talk about straight lines we also want to talk about your ability to be quick
we break down your video let's make you into the quarterback i know you can become
all right so this is something that i'm actually really excited about making this video because
i've done a lot of these types of videos talking about the first step how to get out of that first
step and some of the mistakes that end up being made and today you know i think i really was able
to connect on i think something that can really help athletes and being able to get in the right
spine position right so what happens a lot of times we see guys that will end up getting their
feet like too far back behind as they're starting to you know accelerate out of their start right
and that just makes it so you end up getting too vertical too fast you spend too much time on the
ground per step and it really makes it difficult for you to be able to properly transition through
that kind of start phase those first three steps and go into the dry phase and top end speed
and you know as you get better at being able to work on your start i think you can really start
to be able to develop a rhythm within those first three steps in particular where it's just like you
know one two three get them down really really quickly right so and and when you do it i think
you'll start to feel it and recognize how those first three steps are just different right you
really have to be very specific from going zero to those first three steps and then once you get from
those first three then you go into you know four or fives in all those and that's really more of uh
to me the dry phase but we want to start off with those first three steps and being able to get our
hips through get our spine through and maintain a very high position within that heel and so what
i think ends up being important here is the more effectiveness that we have at being able to drive
forward with that front knee right because what happens is like as we're rolling our hips through
we want to be able to drive that knee through and as we can drive that knee down and through it
makes it so then we can get our hips forward more and the more we can get our hips forward more i
think that helps us out with the spine so instead of being here and trying to be more upwards here
and not getting all the way rolling through with the toes right we we get a little bit high
with the foot foot and and how we're landing with that first foot or that that first step
right instead of doing that we really want to be able to roll those hips all the way forward to
make it so then we can get plenty of action within that spine right so that first action wants to be
very very strong with a driving with that front knee going forwards and really making it so we're
pulling back with that spine or with our our arm to make it so we're able to get our hips through
and really our spine through while keeping that chin nice and tucked i'm going to do
one here just to be able to give you an example of what it should look like
and let's really slide down there and to be able to take a look at the position of the heels
right and trying to be upwards within the the foot and really you know my spine position is
not necessarily going to pop straight up right we just want to be able to roll the big concentration
being able to roll those knee that knee forward and get those hips all the way through and make
it so we're able to land with that foot underneath our hip and being able to maintain a really great
angle right being able to maintain a very steep angle within that heel and also a very horizontal
angle within that that uh shin or within you know that lower leg and so you know that ends up really
being super important when it comes to improving the 40. i've been working with a lot of guys here
recently and being able to improve uh not only their start but you know their top end speed and
you know really working on that first 10 right because when you can get a great understanding
of how to utilize your feet when it comes to the first 10 it helps you in being able to
accelerate from that position into that top end speed and so you know all three of those things
end up being really important when it comes to that start you know those first three steps
then going into the drive phase and then transitioning that into the top end
and so we really want to be able to put all those pieces together and while
they are different and it's correct to be able to segment them i think being able to
understand how to utilize all of them to be able to really maximize your performance is critical
and being able to make sure that you're able to get consistent improvement within your sprinting
mechanics overall so check out that faster 40 program i think that they could really help out a
lot of guys i know there's a lot of camps going on right now a lot i know there's a lot of potential
for exposure but if you don't run a great 40 if you don't understand how to get the start going
i think that really makes a big difference in being able to actually see great results so
