The sprint start is fundamental ... however, there are many notions about it which can be misleading - one of these being stay low. Hey! I even shout "stay low". However, when you analyse it, which it was I do in this video, you'll see that staying low can give the wrong cues to the sprinter and actually negatively affect technique.
VIDEO TIME-LINE
0.00min: Intro
"Don't stay low" is that good?
0.20min: You won't be able to start like a pro if you are just starting out as a sprinter or at an intermediate level.
Research from World Athletics shown in brief. You need to focus on the basics.
0.55min: Set position
Joint angles
1.29min: Projection angle
Discussion on angles and why this is important for effective acceleration.
Staying low can create "broken" positions
2.55min: Discussion on first step mechanics.
Press down into the track whilst maintaining optimum angles.
4.00min: What should you do with your arms?
3-point start value of for arm focus.

I plan to analyse this and other sprint data in more detail in future videos.
