Sprinter Strength Training | The Step Up

Step ups are a great way to recruit big muscle groups for a more explosive stride.
Good for all you sprinters out there...but equally helpful for you long distance folk!
Coach Adam takes you through this movement with a good level of detail - so focus on those performance points around the big toe, developing a strong arch, and how to initiate this movement properly and powerfully.
Once mastered with body weight, you can further challenge yourself with either a) higher box and/or b) some weight!
Happy training!

[@phacocataractdrlvkraju5]

Wonderful explanation. Both are awesome. Nailed the point. Thank you so much for a great video. Toe curl, soft bend of other knee, firm heel✅👍

[@jabz82]

Awesome very informative!! I never saw the point of step ups but since I am in to running I am continuing to do these 💪🏽

[@lloydshinaali]

Thank you for the right techniques

[@coachojoi8]

Thank you Coach

[@hesromsouza]

Very good. I loved it!!!

[@nznige]

damnnn you make that look easy, its not!

[@anastasiaescamilla8501]

Good informative video!!

[@chrishollomanphoto]

Great video. How could this movement be modified for an athlete recovering from an adductor strain? This movement has been difficult and that back leg tends to do the pushing as a compensator... Should the angle of the knee be lessened perhaps?

[@inlineboy7749]

Thank you very much for this content, what is your opinion in term of knee impact of this exercise ? is it better than squatting for an exemple ?

[@aurangzaib3442]

Thanx thanx thanx

[@ethanryan4534]

Knee up toe up

[@nordicwilly6650]

Thanks I've been wondering about the height of box! First time I've seen step-up taught with that heel pull. Tried it today and its very effective! Great stuff

[@TheRunExperience]

Thank you for watching and we are glad you put it to the test! 🙌🏼

[@bravoalley228]

Thanks for specifying that it is a step up but not a push off. I find with walking up stairs that I am more inclined to push off and I could be using that time to step up to help build up strength.
This is the first time I have seen you, coach Adam (unless you been on before, then I am sorry for not paying attention). But you seem like a decent coach. I wish we can see more from you.

[@jblaze18]

What age would you recommend starting this or does that not matter? I mean with weights

[@TheRunExperience]

Any age is great!

[@shrimpfish3985]

Great to see coach Adam contributing again. Tips on training for speed and power are a great countfoil to the rest of the endurance work on TRE.

[@dgalaviz88]

What is the benefit to the upper body by loading the step ups?

[@carlaantonelli8865]

Thank you so much for sharing, I will try this later today at the gym, I always train with shoes, would the concept of curling toes still be the same?

[@smokeymcpot69]

Ah yes, strength trainting. My favorite.

[@AidanOrmond]

Liked that. Thanks coaches

[@TheSilasbulan]
