Usain Bolt Running Technique: How to Run Faster

[antoinepinnock]

I'm Jamaican and I've seen usain train in person and run in person... as well as asafa and yohan... the key to Jamaica sprinting is simple... it about understand pendulums, rotational inertia, torque, symmetric and flexible rather than trying to develop endless thick muscles for power; as well as core strength, abs and lower back are even more important than leg strength. Also please note, your legs are only as powerful as you are because the 2 work in tandem. Leg speed or leg turn over rate should be view as a fulcrum and double pendulum system that is able to take the optimal swings when the sprinter is out of his drive phase.

I didn’t know the lower back is that important for running 💪

You have a new subscriber. I am a 60 year old master athlete. Last year ran the 5th fastest indoor 100m in the world for age 55-59 group. As I get older I know that just pure strength is not enough. Have to train mind, body and soul. Also work your entire body as sprinting is a full body event. Mind needs to be rested to fire those neurons in proper timing. Your soul has to be in a balanced place to get into that perfect zone.

One of my trainers told me secret number 5 as well 😊
Also there is an important phrase in one of Charlie Francis‘ books:
Half time athletes bring half performance.
Full time athletes bring full performance.

I love the way that he dances in 1:43 with the reporter looking so seriously

[darcebader]

At least I got the growing up in Jamaica part down

Also remember that one of the reasons he spends so much time working on his core and lower back is because of his scoliosis, Before Coach Mills had him do that his injury frequency was insane

[DowntownOfTheFork]

I considered Bolt targeted hip flexors more than lower back unlike any other athletes

Keep making vids like these please we track people need this

To summarize; be genetically engineered like he is and then perfect your skill. He is quite literally the perfect body structure for running. 6’5 with extremely long legs, athletic asf, and fast twitch muscles. It’s literally just genetics and then perfecting those gifts.

a real great help for me, I'm training for my selections, and i feel dat dis gon boost my chances. Thank you!

The stretching doesn't prevent injuries. Having good mobility and a proper warm up and adequate rest is what keeps you injured free and ensure not to create imbalances in the body such as tight hip flexors and weak glutes/hamstrings.

[jameshorton]

Secret #5 was the most useful. Thanks👍🏻

[liamp]

Number 5# is so great! Truly life changing! Very easy to do also, thank you!

One of the reasons that those people that are raised in the same or similar places as Bolt run faster or efficient ; is that they used to as growing up; run in thin shoes on gravel like ground and they end up needing to adopt a damperring style; which in turn then configure their muscles and their motorring in fashion that transfers of forces are constant in their torquing of forward motion and I do remember explaining this to some of my friends as a child.
