Title: Sprinting
Post by: Brixtonbulldog on December 24, 2007, 10:45:02 PM

What are some tips for sprinting regarding proper form.  Advice?

I have to sprint all out occasionally at work and I would like to greatly improve my 40yd time.  I don't know diddly squat about track and I never played football on a team so any advice would be helpful.  Videos and links are great too.

Thanks.

Ask me again after I see improvements.

Distance running is different than sprinting
