  • In this video we take a look at athletes who ran faster in championship prelims than in the final, and examine how in some cases, their less exerted approach led to them running faster times while also comparing which race strategies work best for different athletes.

    I struggle to believe Gemili's 9.8 and 19.7 times in training were 100% accurate but good luck to him, hopefully he gets there

      @@mssha1980 none of my athletes has ever run faster in training thano in competition. Most coache just have slow hands and time badly their athletes' runs. I have a training group and all of them are faster while racing AS IT SHOULD BE. if an athlete performs better in training than in comp, then something's wrong. it's far from being normal

      Exactly. Practice times are never accurate.

    I agree with what you said
    "the adrenaline felt as a result of the crowd is a feeling that cannot be replicated in practice."
    you cannot run faster in practice unless they're somehow manipulating the clocks or you're being handtimed without the use of a starting pistol.

    Pure 200m runners like Knighton, Spearmon, Weir etc are usually are better served saving their energy for the home straight
    Guys like Bolt who are equally strong in the 100m can afford to go out hard in the first 100m

      tbh i would have liked to see Bolt at least try and perserve some energy at the first 100m in one of his races, to see if it would have made him even faster. but he always went out 100%

      @@TH-cx2yx That's why the fast 200m ever minus reaction time is by Yohan Blake who was told by Bolt before that race not to hit the curve hard but wait until after the curve and that's where he started to catch and pass Walter Dix and was gone in 19.26 (18.99 not reaction time if I'm not mistaken, he sat in the blocks during that race).

    The max effort portion should come within your drive phase, once you come up and hit top gear that’s when you relax and let the race come to you…And remembering you have time in a 100 to build because you’ll definitely hit top gear before the finish line lol

    Your videos are so good, interesting, informative. My suggestion is that you get a better microphone, because your current audio is pretty muffled and your audio quality alone might be deterring potential viewers from watching your content. I'm not a UA-cam guru or anything, I'm just a random guy, so maybe my suggestion is worth nothing, but this is something I've thought through a few of your videos. There's a reason why UA-cam (the company) decreases video quality if a user's internet speed is slow but UA-cam never decreases a video's audio quality (no matter how slow a user's internet is) - because they understand the importance of audio in a viewer's experience.

      Thanks for the feedback
      I did notice that the audio quality in this video was particularly muffled and I have ordered a proper mic which I'm waiting on so I will be using it for either the next video or the following one.

      @@sprintspeedmedia Ah sorry - my message there was impulsive (I was drinking at the time), I was considering just deleting that message because it felt drunk/dumb/rude to me. I don't actually know much about audio. It could be that your microphone is perfectly fine as it is, and that there might be some setting in editing software that can remove background noise (and so there's no need for a new microphone at all). I don't know. My message might just be a dumb message. Either way, the content of your videos is great and anybody who does watch your videos will recognize that. Sorry for the idiocy.

    • @sprintspeedmedia

      No problem. I already bought the new mic while I was editing this video, there was no way to make it sound better in the editing software because the mic I used for this video had deteriorated.

      More like 9.7 and it wasn't the finals (That was 2015 World Champs semi-finals). Sprinters aren't robots. They need to rest and recover especially when the next race is an hour away. People leave ridiculous comments sometimes.

    usain bolt couldve broken his records again but jogged the end

    • @gmaxsfoodfitness3035
      @gmaxsfoodfitness3035 7 місяців тому

      Not true. All his current records were run straight through the line. His only time jogging (which was for literally 1 to 2 seconds as he sprinted the first 8 secs) was in that 9.69 at the Olympics in 2008. His 9.58 100m, 150m WR, 19.19 200m WR were ran all the way through. In fact his 19.19 he went out way to hard in the first 100m (9.92 first half of a 200m! Crazy fast) and faded badly in the last 50m but he was far enough ahead of his old record pace that he still got it.
      Why are you saying he was jogging when he did that for one race?
