- Are you struggling to improve your speed as a sprinter? Do you feel like you're hitting a plateau and can't seem to break through to the next level? If so, dialing in your stride length may be the key to unlocking your full potential.
In this video, you'll learn how to optimize your stride length for maximum speed and power. We'll cover the most effective techniques and exercises for improving your stride length, as well as the key factors to consider when adjusting your stride. You'll also learn what drills to use to improve your stride length and why building your drive phase is so important.
Whether you're an amateur sprinter looking to improve your performance or an experienced athlete seeking to take your skills to the next level, this video has something for you. With the tips and strategies we'll be sharing, you'll be well on your way to becoming a faster, more efficient sprinter.
Ken Harnden is the sprints coach at University of Tennessee. He's a three-time USTFCCCA National Assistant Coach of the Year and has guided 14 Olympians, 25 NCAA champions and more than 160 All-Americans.
Numerous athletes have achieved world-class times under Harnden’s watch with six of his sprinters breaking the 10-second barrier in the 100. So pay attention, he knows what he is talking about.

The facts that I been making them mistakes make the video even better 🔥
Really nice explanation, I see often that athletes are overstriding , that will lead to hamstring issues
Yep. That happened to me 3 weeks ago.
@@speedstreak914 hope you fixed it
@@ThePassionofSprinting yeah I just started sprinting and I won't make that mistake again.
Nordic curls then
A few years ago, they has a stride length chart that went from 11.00 flat to 10. Flat. Vince Anderson Sprint coach from Texas A&M and Cutis Fry from South Carolina were a few coaches who had them. I still remember the chart
outstanding teaching abought stride length, after watching clearly understand. thank you
Thanks Ramachandran, Glad it was helpful!
Great explanation ...
Glad it was helpful!
Great video keep making more👍
More to come!
Thanks for the tips...I hava a problem when am training take off my mascle pulls I feel a lot of pain
YW, sorry to hear that
Please make videos on block start
Did you watch this one we posted? czcams.com/video/xXqGZamvZjw/video.html
I need a combat elite stride formation!
Don't we all
Would the stride length be the same in all sports? For example should I run the same wearing football pads,as I do on the track?
In football because of the weight of the pads you'll never achieve your true top speed however as a general rule yes, stride length should be the same.

Sir Please 100 meter workout Define
Sir which is more important for winning the 100m stride length or stride frequency ?
Both stride length and stride frequency are equally important and integral components of a sprinter's speed. You want a combination of optimal stride length and high stride frequency to maximize speed.
@@OutperformOfficial what if you are a taller sprinter then ?
Foot contact position is not the crucial factor (it's not as important).
Applying negative foot velocity during the support phase is key! This again is only possible if the recovery limb swings forward with the same velocity.
A longer ground contact time is actually beneficial if we can use it for more impulse.
But to make this movement pattern work it is important to keep the verticl oscillation to a minimum. More vertical oscillation results in more breaking force with these technique!
Justing Gatlin did this pretty well but nobody is as good as the animal cheetah.
Interesting thoughts. The goal of sprinting is to provide maximum vertical force to the ground. To maximize speed you need to have the foot land directly underneath the center of mass.
As far as ground contact time goes. The fastest sprinters on the planet have extremely short ground contact times during upright sprinting. The top male sprinters in the world are on and off the ground in less than .09 seconds when sprinting at top end speed. The fastest females take just slightly longer.
@@OutperformOfficial The goal is never maximum vertical force! you don't understand physics if you really think so.
Ground contact time is just the result of speed. It has no effect on speed.
Only horizontal forces directly influence speed nothing else! Vertical force is just the necessary evil. It's ridiculous that coaches still don't get it.
@@Leonidas-eu9bb Haha, thanks Manuel, these types of comments are great conversation points! It sounds like we on different planets if you don't think sprinting is about applying vertical force to the ground and contact time doesn't matter :). There are a ton of great resources out there when it comes to sprinting biomechanics and force application. A good place to start are articles on impulse (a combination of the amount of force applied to the ground multiplied by the time of foot-ground contact.)
Here is an excerpt from a study at SMU analyzing Usain Bolt (who produces over 1000 pounds of force to the track!).
“If a runner has a smaller impulse, they don’t get as much aerial time,” Weyand said. “Our previous published research has shown greater ground forces delivered in shorter periods of foot-ground contact are necessary to achieve faster speeds. This is true in part because aerial times do not differ between fast and slow runners at their top speeds. Consequently, the combination of greater ground forces and shorter contact times is characteristic of the world’s fastest sprinters.”
@@Leonidas-eu9bb so what you mean is to run in limping style?🤣
@@ikanmasin try running backwards. It works!
Great points and explanation. The part I guess I'm not grasping is in the drive phase wouldn't that wear you out quicker if you drive longer (use more energy)?
So running the 100 meter you would fade at the end? Being upright and striding COM uses less energy then driving pushing most of the way? Help me out I'm missing something
In the 100m typically the longer you can continue to accelerate the faster you will be. A great example is Usain Bolt who continued to accelerate until ~65 meters. Fading at the end isn't an issue with a longer drive phase.
@@OutperformOfficial makes sense. What about 200 meter?
Hmmm. Guess I better get some wickets. Lol
When used correctly they can really help!
