Run Faster! Jump Higher! Ankle Flips to High Knee Running to Build Up Sprints While the Build Up Sprint is the most important drill for learning to run smoother, easier and faster, this is the best drill for developing two critical running skills: running off the balls of your feet and relaxation. Take your time and allow your body to "feel" the action and then rehearse the correct movements and synchronizations. Copy and rehearse the running form and body motions demonstrated in the video. Tips and Points • First, practice each drill separately. • When practicing the Build Up Sprint, start off slow at 25% building up to about 75% of full speed. Reach 75% at about the half way point for 40 up to 100 yards. • Keep the focus high and the face, neck, jaw, shoulders, chest and eyes relaxed. • Land on balls of feet only and bounce through each progressing drill. • Be patient. Once you’ve mastered the skill, then add speed. Variations • Do Ankle Flip and Half High Knee portion in a slow pace backwards. • Do the Half High Knee portion slowly, accelerating around each curve, but then sprint straight forward. • Add ankle weights or a weight vest or both for more resistance. • With a partner or coach, use a resistance bungee cord or power harness. Repetitions: 4 - 8 - 12 Distances: 40 - 80 up to 200 yards Schedule: 3 - 4 days per week. Mix and alternate days, distances and intensities. Big Tip: Video-tape yourself in motion and then compare to the athletes in the video loops. Spend lots of time studying the athletes doing build up sprints. You can observe and compare the many different ages, body types, and styles.
