Good performance from Bolt today - got a great start which was always his weakness.

Hopefully he'll break the WR again.

Of course it is....because everyone can sprint because it's easy.....right?

last 2-3 races hes been looking "slow". I guess not risking to get caught before olympics (besides this race)



Looks like he got the start figured out, thats whats been lacking in the last few races, hes always managed to catch up but not great starts like that

Which one is harder in your opinion, weightlifting movements snatch and the clean and jerk and their variations or sprinting? I think sprinting is alot more difficult to be decent at.

I love watching Bolt run, he looks like he's jogging and not even trying and covers 100 m in 10 seconds, lol.

Yes Che, you're wrong because sprinting the correct way is difficult.

Serious question, Im sure with the top people in this industry reading this board someone can answer under a gimmick, what are these top 100 metre sprinters taking that gets them past tests, how much and at what points of the year leading up to world champs and Olympics?Someone reading this has to have experience training or supplying a top class sprinter.

Of course he didn't look great....athletes peak for the championships.  They are not in world record shape all the time.  NOW it's time.

@Will...no, I'm saying its more speed mechanics than drugs. You think hes the only one on something?

Post by: Ursus on August 27, 2011, 07:08:08 PM
My dad commented at the length of his legs below the knee.

He has great leg speed with a long stride. Plus being black and on drugs = so much better than everyone else.

I think that much give him some bio-mechanical advantage?

I could be wrong!
Title: Re: Usain Bolt looks still on form
Post by: Coach is Back! on August 27, 2011, 08:15:51 PM
Ursus pretty much nailed it. Length x Stride + forced application (power) = speed but most of all perfect hand mechanics.

Did very well. Racing the 2nd best in the world at the time, weighing a lot more and not having trained specifically for it.

Who was on the most drugs?  :D

So he got eliminated in the final because of a single false start.

WTF, you don't get a courtesy false start in track anymore?  Since when?

It was bought in last year,stupid change of rule,all done to please tv channels, after fucking up the biggest name in athletics expect it to change back for next years olympics.

5 out of the top 7 sprinters in the world this year did not make the final. Four did not even come to the championships for numerous reasons.

I do not like the falso start rule and honestly preferred it where EVERYONE was allowed one false start.

Aziz Zakari was montrous a few years back.

John Capel I think was pretty big - Some Yank was massive a few years back too. harry actually looks slimmed down a little from when he was younger.

It's really no surprise Swede is an expert on sprinting ....He has to run as fast as he can just to keep up with regular sized people walking around  :D ;D

The rules should obviously apply to Bolt, just as anyone else but the IAAF have really messed up by creating such a stupid rule. They are sabotaging their own sport. Sucks.
