In this video we take a look at the males athletes who had some of the best sprinting form ever and rank them from 1-20 Music: HORUSIII x HICAP - We Do It No
Jeez man, Powell is one of those rare sprinters that just glides across the field. Looks like a wire’s pulling him and he moves his legs to feign like he’s running, as if he’s doing a stunt in a movie.
As a young lad watching Don Q , I was puzzled by the way his legs looked like they were elastic rubber bands when running. Now after all these years you as solved the puzzle for me. It was that final extension of his front foot before in touched the ground, that gave his stride that elastic look. It truly was a thing of beauty.
I'm glad Darrel Brown was mentioned as well as sprinting in Trinidad shown briefly from 0:35- 0:39s which was when Darrel Brown ran a 10.04s to win the 100m at the Hasely Crawford Stadium in 2011. He will always be missed in the sport.
I honestly believe, if Darryl had achieved more winning sub 10 times throughout his career (and if aesthetics was a greater factor in this comparison), he would be in the top three easily... Only Asafa and perhaps Maurice green was smoother. Yes the other runners have quick turnover, but he always looked as if he was jogging 10.0s. I really wanted to see him beat some people at the world level (this is coming from a Jamaican). I witnessed him at the world juniors in Kingston and at several senior champs in Trinidad, you would get goosebumps just watching him do a run through before the race... Never seen anything like it. You just wanted him to win regardless of who else was in the race just to see his running form.
At 50 or 60m could yes he could but at the 100m no due to his top speed is slower then Marcell and others but I think it could work on people that are shorter like 5.6 and 5.8 because su is shorter then all these athletes in this list that’s what made him not have the top speed and not included him in this list and his height would give him disadvantage at top speed.
Backside mechanics are important, because you start from backside first, meaning not have too much back drift, when that is the case, you miss too much time on the ground with the support leg, meaning you're braking longer not even getting to front side.
I agree. I have been saying for years that Asafa has the best sprinting form. His form allows for his foot to hit the ground at the correct angle, it allows maximum utilization of the gluteus muscle, and it prevents the foot from spending time behind the body.
Anybody notice Powell’s change in race strategy/pattern after ‘07?? I think it was post Osaka where he really established himself as #1 on this list 👌🏾
You should look at 200/400 runners, as well. Given the demands of their race, efficient of stride is extremely important. Kenny Bednarek, Jeremy Wariner, Wayde Van Niekerk, etc.
I don't know if I agree completely with this list. I don't see Donovan Bailey on this list and a couple of other athletes I think embodies the perfect form in sprinting.
1st of all. Best form I've ever seen "male or female" is Flo-Jo. Other than Flo-Jo, Lamont Marcel Jacobs has impeccable form. I'm a critical fan of Jacobs, but can't deny he has best form after Flo-Jo
0:35 The whole front side argument here is wrong. People have different sprinting strategies. Some people apply more force, especially those who extend their hips a lot and so spend more time in the air, for them they can then have their leg cycle for longer, good metrics for measuring these are drive index and hip extension to flexion ratios. There is no objectively better strategy as different strategies suit different bodies, some people might have better ROM or stronger glutes than hip flexors etc which means their ideal strategy is different. Having more of a bias towards frontside mechanics doesn't mean your sprinting form is better its just different. Frontside and backside aren’t mutually exclusive. Having effective frontside mechanics benefits backside mechanics and vice versa. Its really a false dichotomy.
If you have very good hip flexor strength, should you aim for parallel femurs during max velocity? Is parallel optimal for force generation, in your opinion?
@SHXEDA!! There would be no Usain & the rest of them without Carl Lewis. He & his coach taught the world the secret of his form. Which was understand that the human body can only accelerate up to about 65 meters the most & relaxation the rest which involves hold your form as relaxed as possible. Carl gave them all the blue print. Also people are faster today bc of the track, shoes & clothing technology. In fact there was a study that showed that today's sprinters are about the same speed as the sprinters before them. The only difference was said is bc of technology & hence the reason they have faster times today. They even said Usain wasn't that much faster.
You should do a video on why there are many white females that break the 11 second time (equivalent of the 10 second in the mens 100m) of the 100m, compared to the almost no white males breaking the 10 seconds in the 100m.
Thanks for mentioning Ato Boldon, he trained with Maurice Greene under the same coach when they were at their peak, only Mo Greene seemed to be running slightly faster in most of their races, though Ato would sometimes win. Two legends
I agree with your list for the most part. I think an honorable mention should be Andre de Grasse. Lovely, fluid and efficient. Excellent video. Shame the resolution wasn't better on some of the segments. Shame that some athletes tended to let up when they knew they had already won. How much faster could Bolt, Powell and Tebogo have run if they didn't let up in their best races?
last thing I will say is the idea of the compact arm swing/drive this actually hinders the 100 metre runner it biomechanically wrong and thus lessons the power in the arm drive. there is also extra movement at the elbow for most compact arm swingers also making them less efficient . Lewis Mitchell bolden drummond Marsh Burrell probably have the best arm angles off the top of my head.
another illusion to do with carl lewis up right is what you refered to as torso instability. Its an illusion caused by the amount of force Lewis drive his arms backwards. Infact youd be hard pressed to find any of these guys with instability in the torso EXCEPT for over striding. and if the athlete is overstriding it means there hips have dropped or due to psoas length are unable to bring hips forward to the optimal postition and in any sport from walking to kungfu to jogging to sprinting this will cause instability in the core.
The was a pretty good list and as a Jamaican I agree with all the point and principles of true sprinting mechanics... I seen all of these top Jamaicans train from usain to yohan to asafa, you should do a list on the females shelly, elaine, Jeter, of the female only shelly I've seen training in person
Gotta be Asafa Powell. Dude look like he glides on the track and once he gets going is like an unstoppable train hovering to the finish line. In order to give out such perception to viewers u need very fluid biomechanics in the technique.
So the question you're left with is, how could you be a former record holder and the sub10 king because of your excellent form, but that great form never allowed you win an Olympic or World Champ title? Finalitis!!
Personally I find athletes with more of a balance between their frontside and backside mechanics to have the best looking form. I prefer their back kick to come up high as well.
@@robinbauer1975 do not get me wrong frontside is important but it is a balance . You have some who go so extreme on frontside that they don't have a proper leg cycle and just running with high knees only stomping the ground. That can shorten stride length .
lewis up right was so good except 88 final when he paniced realising johnson was uncatchable. lewis up right for sooo many reasons is so far beyond the rest it far out ways his flawed start....plus powell like many on the list actually slightly overstride. most anylis look at the wrwong things when determining an overstride. its much more comp[lex than even most coaches realise.
Before one can sprint; one needs to be able to run. And to be a good runner; one needs a good running technic that allows for decent endurance. Therefore, since endurance is clearly mo important than the dashing speed; the list for the best running form would be: 1. Mista W. V. Niekerk. Best 400 m dash track & field professional athlete, so far. 2. Mista H. Gebrselassie. Best 10 km dash track & field professional athlete, so far. 3. Mista U. Bolt. Best 100 m dash track & field professional athlete, so far. To note that through out history, a few track & field non-professional athletes, from the same family group, from the Highlands of the nowadays nation of Angola. Had one person running the 400 m dash, in just 41s; and another person running the 10 km in about 23 minutes. Meaning that: outside nowadays Angola; only Mista U. Bolt, as a running form, to also be taught to the youngsters.
I’m glad to see Ben Johnson in the Top 10, where he belongs. I honestly think he should be #3 or #4, behind Powell & Jacobs, but I think his slightly shorter legs and heavier build work against him from an “aesthetics” point of view. As far as being a technical model for shorter sprinters or those with high turnover, Johnson is at the top. No question Powell is #1. Good list.
Ben Johnson should not be on the list at all without cheating his times were not world class, he was a joke and blemish on sprinting. That being said I still believe that most of the sprinters cheat and people who say they passed tests are fools as Lance Armstrong never failed a test while winning the tour 5 times but was cheating something fierce as were all the others and no one really wants to stop the cheating.
@@vincentalfonzojamal If they really tested them they would all fail, did you read my full comment? I believe they all cheat and the catch who they want and that goes for all sports.
@@todallard8791your passion & sense of justice might in some circles be seen as admirable, but it is misplaced. This is a review of mechanics & form, period.
All this form analysis overlooks some key biomechanical factors ... like thickness and stiffness of the Achilles tendon which effects force transfer from the foot into the ground ... and which cannot be impacted by form or training.
16:14 he ran a 9.74 while slowing down significantly at the end and not even dipping he could have easily broke his pr of 9.72 and also break 9.69 which would made him second fastest. It looked like he would gotten low 9.6 maybe even sub 9.6 if he dipped. He ruined his chances of potentially tieing or beating Usain Bolt’s record. He obviously can’t go this fast but he had a 1.7+ wind and he didn’t take advantage of it
Bolt is the fastest human today but he should no way be as high as he should have been. I believe you put Him on the five because he is the fastest. Usain Bolt has leg/hip power as well. It’s the best power ever even with his “upper mediocre” mechanics. He had that lower body combination of power, length, & speed. Even though he declined after 2009, his Power with that leg length gave witness to that incredible speed which in turn… made him legendary. Imagine Asafa Powell with Usain Bolts lower leg mechanics. Whoa…
If there is such a thang of who has the best form I'd have to go with "DQ", cause they put him on the computer 🖥 back in the day & the computer said he had the best mechanic's at the time based on all the angles he projected & produced at that time, his "Master Coach" was "Coach Leo Davis"(who by the way was a native Jamaican & one of his country's greatest table tennis players, & when i tell you he was a master of coaching movement, he was all that & more, we called him the "Master Guru of sprinting baby) who Coached at "USC" & by the way I also had the great privilege to be coached by him myself for 5 good seasons it was a wonderful experience for me, had I not got terribly hurt the 👉 🌏 would have been amazed, but it is what it is & I rejoice still.Amen & Amen & Amen!!!
Asafa Powell's form was perfect hes no1 for sure
I agree. Lewis is a very close second
No I don't think so
There's no doubt that Powell is the right person for the number slot
Yea that’s is the perfect combo of speed power and technique. Ppl wouldn’t disagree if Asafa won gold at worlds or the Olympics
Powell older brother made the Olympics final. I think it's a family pedigree.
Asafa Powell has the most sub 10 100m races of all time. His mechanics are on another level

The moment you said front side mechanics in the start of video the first person came in my mind was Asapha Powell. Definitely deserving the 1st Rank
Asafa Powell truly had some insanely efficient form and technique

Complimenti per la ricerca d'archivio
I don't know if I agree completely with this list. I don't see Donovan Bailey on this list and a couple of other athletes I think embodies the perfect form in sprinting.
I always liked Bruny Surin, he was a smooth runner in my mind.
you should do a similar video focusing more on the 200 or 400
Asafa Powell, letsile tebogo and Wayde van niekerk
I like the form of andre de grasse.
Asafa's form was a thing of beauty.
Interesting that there's no Donovan Bailey or Bunny Surin. No Ato Boldon either or Leroy Burrell. I know you can't include everyone though
There was NOBODY more badass and powerful to watch on the 100m dynamic side camera than ASAFA! That head pulse and drive was outer-worldly sh*t!

Glad to see everyone have asafa piwell at #1 🙏🙏
I could watch Carl Lewis and Bolt run all day. Iconic
The moment I saw the title Powell was the first to come to mind the man is the running definition of perfect sprinting form.
Jacobs & FloJo coached by triple jumpers ?
Both have a very distinct & very effective running style.
And Jacobs was a long jumper too I think.
What do you think about Su Bing Tain's form?
I always loved tysom gay starts he wasnt the best at starting but the way he left the blocks was just something special
Carl Lewis is one of the best forms u will ever witness
It looks good but we are talking about which is the most affective
