In this Pro Tips 4U sports training video, Dominique Arnold, who holds the fourth-fastest all-time performance in the 110-meter hurdles, goes over How to Approach the First Hurdle. Learn the proper form and execution as you approach the first hurdle. What putting on the brake and gas means, why you want to keep your stride underneath you and not out in front. Why you need a high hip position and why you want to punch the knee over instead of kicking with your foot. Dominique also talks about being patient and running off the hurdle.
Dominique Arnold holds the fourth-fastest all-time performance in the 110 meter hurdles, with a time of 12.90 seconds. In competition, he finished fourth at the 2005 World Championships in Athletics and took Bronze in the 60 meter hurdles at the 2006 World Indoor Championships in Athletics. He also took Bronze at the 2001 IAAF Grand Prix Final and Silver at the 2005 World Athletics Final.

I've been coaching hurdles for 20 years. Always looking for correct and crisp videos to show my athletes. This video is so important. If you don't understand how excellent it is, you don't understand hurdling. Well done Sir! Excellent!
TacKyVt u seem to know what ur on about, with the lead leg, should it be the thigh driving up, or the knee then lower leg
Can you coach me a bit
Like today?
Well I ran hurdles and coached a few young athletes.This presentation,while substantively good is presented in such a discombobulated manner that it is difficult to follow.I always tried to emphasize keeping the crotch above the level of the hurdle and having an "attack" posture/attitude with that last step before the first barrier.Above all feel balanced.Having said that,the best instructional book ever written on hurdling is "The Hurdlers Bible" by the excellent Wlibur Ross (now deceased).The books are hard to find(think Amazon)and expensive but worth the cost.One other thing..if the athlete is capable,going from an eight step to a seven step approach makes a world of difference.This guy never even mentioned the number of steps to the first hurdle.
@@docsmithdc how many world records were made with 7 step starts?
I have to do hurdles in school tomorrow since I signed up but I forgot how to do it.....
I have my first meet tomorrow 😬😬
me too, i have my meet today and im really scared
@@sanaib8840 I had a meet yesterday and did the 55 hurdles. And you're probably putting in more effort than the other kids because you're searching how to do it right. You got this 💪🏅
Meetoo
No coach should put an athlete in any race yet alone hurdles without proper training and prep. That would be a horrible coach and one unworthy of a coaching job. They need to learn what they are doing. Tell them COACH Burnett said that.
Kept getting a three step in practice BEFORE a meet (literally ten minutes before my race) this is because my legs are fresh and during practice I only get to work on hurdles AFTER a sprint workout and have little energy to attack. Once I get into my race my body takes me back to a four step so the entire race I'm fighting with myself to get a 3 step. I have 2 races left this season, let's hope I can get in the rhythm.
Donna S I’m in the same situation right now
Make sure your pushing out of the blocks with the front leg and running as fast as you can towards the hurdle as if there’s no hurdle in front. Good luck ! 🍀👍🏾
yea i have it the same way
Thank you so much Dominique. I was a 220 female hurdler for 4 years in high school. I was a natural. My son is a 310 hurdler (way taller than I was), and he is having problems as a freshman. It's good for him to see that what I show him is what a professional like yourself is also showing him. I can't wait for him to get home so I can show him this video about brakes and gas because I keep telling him that he's sitting in the hurdles. His coach is a good one, and telling him he doesn't have to "jump" over the hurdles just glide like I tell him because of his height. I was only 5'4, and he's somewhere like 5'10-5'11. He does a lot of "up downs" like in basketball and that severely slows his time. So thank you.
Thanks so much for this video! I have a really big problem with taking a giant step just before the hurdle, which makes me "put on the brakes," lean back, and drive my knee up instead of forward. I have to run both 110m and 300m tomorrow, so I hope I can make at least a few adjustments tonight.
I used to always do hurdles at athletics competitions and I’m trying to get back into it
When im jumpin over the hurdles i stutter sometimes or like when im goin to jump my arms are always up, how can i keep them down
reach for your forward foot
Hey don’t reach ever push back so make sure your feet were underneath your hips. Run as if there’s no hurdle and run as fast as you can towards the hurdle !!!
You don’t jump hurdles you run hurdles
@@taitonmoore1608 ur clearly jumping over them when running...
you always need to lean and i struggle with my arms too but i’ve noticed that when i’m just going through them to practice is to pick a specific thing to focus on and that’s it also videoing yourself and watching it back helps
Great video Dom! Been awhile :) Still look like a badass.
Jaret Campisi IKR!!!! Wish I would have seen this during my freshmen year
Thanks for the tips!
thank you so much sr. it helped me a lot thank you...
this video helped me a lot I was doing 10.5 secs in 55 hurdles now I'm at 7.9 secs aka school record
I meant 8.9
That's impossible, show me proof
8.9 is not impossible I run a 8.0 for the 55 hurdles
That’s literally impossible
@@furriesareweird dude no it’s not this indoor Season I dropped a 7.89 I got beat by 4 dudes 7.46,7.56,7.6,7.76 these are touchable times 😂 u must not run track
GREAT VIDEO!!!
One of THE BEST sprint hurdle technique tips I have ever seen. He hit it 100% out of the park. So many kids want to put the foot in front and “long jump” over the first hurdle. It ruins the rest of the race. That is why they are slow - even if they are capable of running FAST. Thank you for such excellent advice!
I remember watching this video when I first started hurdling 6 years ago wild how all the things he is saying are still things I need to work out. This really does take most of time and effort be patient
we need more videos about next hurdles plzzzz
Nice sharing
My man Nique!!!!
I did hurtles in school a week ago and hit my shin on the top of the hurtle, and then landed on my left knee cap. I hurt sooo much btw it was inside on a tile floor
Looked very very puffy
It's sad on how I just sprained my ankle, while practicing on the hurdles at school for PE and a main reason why could be that they just told us to start off with or dominant leg and jump. I'm looking at these videos now and majority of the girls did it wrong. One girl was just swinging both feet over. I came to this realization after I come home to a sprained ankle and then being told by a track person herself, that we were doing it all wrong and if you don't do it right you can get seriously injured. Well this video helps.
What do you recommend for steps. Personally, I find myself trying to break the habit of taking smaller steps when approaching the hurdle
I learned this the hard way. I tried to rush the first hurdle and beat everyone else but lost my balance and got last because I lost all my momentum.
When I do hurdles my body goes to the side, and I shuffle my feet how do I avoid that
As an absolute beginner, and a geezer at that, I'd like to know: do all hurdlers use the same leg to clear the hurdle first, and the same leg to trail, whether it be left or right? Is it just a matter of personal choice and comfort?
I know this video is a bit old but I’m 4’11 and I do hurdles I’m okay but it’s hard for me to drive through them bc I’m scared of hitting them any tips?
Can hurdle technique be used in high jump
I have good technique but i don't run after the hurdle, How i can run fast after the hurdle?
EL Pato Frances I have the same problem
Try leaning forward to carry the momentum
Noah Heiber one time I leaned to hard and tripped
👍
i’m on my middle school track team, i’m not a sprinter but love hurdles, and i’m learning them. i have no idea how to sprint in between the hurdles or what to do with my arms 😅 my best time i think is about 20 seconds lol
Just sprint like you normally would in between but it sometimes feels like you’re doing high knees. Watch vids on arms. The one opposite of your leg goes out
I am in middle school and can't punch with my knee because I'm not tall enough
You need to check out Colin Jackson & Allen Johnson. Those guys were 5' 9" and 5' 10", respectively. Colin was a former world record holder, while Allen is an Olympic Gold Medalist. Both guys were insanely fast.
You can do it. This video is gold! The key becomes leaning from the waist and staying tall. I am 5' 8", and consistently dropped mid 14s in the highs throughout high school with terrible training. Granted, my legs were extremely powerful and I had an awful lot of speed.
Good luck!
me too lmaooo
im 5'6 and my hurdles are 3 feet tall :((
Cistien I’m barely 5’3 and my hurdles are 3 feet. I get so scared because it looks so high 😩
Htee Paw image being 5’1 tho😓🥺💀
I'm about to start track and I'm gonna try hurdles bc I'm tall but I'm not flexible ... would that be a problem?
Bella Rose Piccirillo that's my question too 😭
Try to work on that I’m not the tallest but I’m the most flexible guy on my team and when I do hurdles compared to the other guys my for is usually better
Flexibility is main butttt doesn’t mean you can’t do it. Do certain stretches evrryday and you’ll be ready
Just work on your hips a lot!! I'm 5'5" so I'm not that tall.
Slippinqq Vv not true flexibility is not the main thing
Is that a green screen?
Kayla Hernandez no
Lol I’m at a meet rn
I need to meet with you I need a couch me hurdle
Category: Autos & Vehicles?
nick trachier Dominque is all about high octane hurdling :-)
So what you see in the finals of the olympics in 2012 ... that’s not the best form?
Am I forced to jump hurdles in high school?
no u can run past them
+kitkat warrior pony It's really gonna depend on your height. High school height (in open field races) are 39." If your hips can't quite clear that, you're likely to have to get up higher than you would like to. I found that if you're aggressive enough.....attack that hurdle...you're still better off than at least half the field.
Satisfactory ok, are you forced to fly over the hurdles
I’m only jumping 30 inches TwT I’m in 6th grade lel
日本人誰かこれ全部日本語訳してくれないか
sorry but this did not help me i need to see it in action
