  • Conceptual and Practical Meaning of Technique in Running Performance – a Brief Observation of the Problem
    BIO Web of Conferences 26, 00086 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/bioconf/20202600086 PES 2020 Conceptual and Practical Meaning of Technique in Running Performance – a brief observation of the problem Nikolay Romanov Pose Method, Miami FL, USA Abstract. The article is addressing the problem of running technique as a major factor of improving running performance. A short retrospective review showed that the main obstacle in developing a proper and efficient running technique was the absence of a commonly accepted concept, model of the efficient running technique, which, in its turn, did not allow the development of an efficient method of teaching. The author, based on his own studies in this field, is proposing a very specific way of solving this problem by using gravity as the major source of running movement with the rest of the factors just assisting it. 1 Introduction One of the main reasons of why people run, beside the desire to get healthy, happy, lose weight, get fun, is to challenge themselves and run faster to fulfill their potential. Most runners want to improve their performance and they look for all possible sources to make this happen. On the surface, the answer is seemingly simple and well-known. In order to run faster an athlete should be injury-free, dedicated and devoted to training hard, with high mileage, proper nutrition, right shoes, strength and stretching exercises, etc. There has never been any shortage of advice in this field in books, magazines and Internet articles, but one thing has always been almost missing – running technique. Two problems were always related to this – the absence of a commonly accepted running technique model and an adequate method of teaching, based on this model.

  • 1. Race Walking – the Correct Walking Technique
    ATHLETICS OMNIBUS - RACE WALKING From the Athletics Omnibus of Richard Stander, South Africa 1. RACE WALKING – THE CORRECT WALKING TECHNIQUE 1.1. GENERAL There is very little resemblance between having a walk in the park and Race Walking. Race Walking have to be done technically correct to avoid been disqualified for breaking the rules of the event. Race Walking Distance vary from 1500m to 50km, depending on the age and gender of the athlete. The objective in Race Walking is to walk as fast as possible for the duration of the race without losing the walking technique. As the rear foot begins to come forward, the body weight is transferred onto the front foot until the single support phase is completed. At this point the full weight of the body is supported by one leg, and the whole momentum of the walker comes from pushing strongly off the rear foot. The leg should remain straight for as long as possible. The rear foot should be brought forward as close to the ground as possible, landing with the foot at approximately 45º to the ground. At this point the weight of the body is equally distributed between the two points of contact in the double support phase. The Judges will watch carefully to check that the leading foot makes contact with the ground before the other foot has left it, and that the leg straightens at least momentarily. A walker will be disqualified when 2 judges (one of them the chief judge) agree that the walk has not been correctly performed or when 3 different judges are of the same opinion.

    BIOMECHANICAL ANALYSIS OF ELITE RACE WALKING BRIAN STEPHEN HANLEY A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Leeds Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2014 ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to provide a comprehensive analysis of key biomechanical variables in race walking through the analysis of elite athletes in both competitive and laboratory settings. Video data from two 3CCD camcorders of athletes competing over 10 km (juniors only), 20 km, and 50 km were collected at three international competitions. For the 20 km and 50 km events, multiple recordings were made to identify if kinematic changes occurred. In addition, synchronised high- speed video, electromyography and ground reaction force data were collected of 20 elite race walkers in a laboratory setting and combined to calculate joint moments, power and work. The key discriminants with regard to better performances were long step lengths and high cadences, and the contribution made by flight distance to step length (approximately 13%) was particularly important, regardless of race distance or age category. Step length ratio was a better predictor of optimum step length than absolute values and a ratio of about 70% was found in the fastest athletes. Although reductions in step length and flight distance were a major cause of decreased speed over both 20 km and 50 km, many gait variables did not alter greatly, showing that these elite athletes were able to maintain their techniques despite fatigue. The foot position ahead of the body at initial contact (approximately 20% of stature) need not be detrimental to fast walking if the athlete has the strength to overcome the potentially negative effects; instead, it can be beneficial to increase this distance in achieving a greater step length and could be a key area for women in particular to develop.

Recommendations for Training. i) Ultra-marathon runners should aim to meet the caloric demands of training by following an individualized and periodized strategy, comprising a varied, food-first approach; ii) Athletes should plan and implement their nutrition strategy with sufficient time to permit adaptations that enhance fat oxidative capacity; iii) The evidence overwhelmingly supports the inclusion of a moderate-to-high carbohydrate diet (i.e., ~ 60% of energy intake, 5–8 g·kg− 1·d− 1) to mitigate the negative effects of chronic, training-induced

Most of the boys were moving up to the Under 18s which is the senior part of the club or trying out for the Cannons or other sports. I was still enjoying coaching and felt I was still impactual (my own word). However, l thought it was time for the boys to experience other coaching styles and approaches. As fate would have it David Newett, who had been a friend for a few years, was leaving the Kangaroos and had taken a developmental role at Richmond Football Club which included coaching the affiliated side, the Coburg Tigers. Dave wanted to know if I would be his assistant and forward line coach. My role would include; being involved in the process of developing the team’s trademarks, leadership development, overseeing the cultural change process and the players’ goal setting. Thought provoking and challenging. I hadn’t coached adults for some years, other than a cameo role as a defensive coach, but had been running seminars at a few AFL clubs. Dave sold it well on the basis that; I would be exposed to all that goes with the elite and sub elite of football, l would learn a tremendous amount about strategy, game plans and high performance, would be able interact with the RFC coaching group, coach RFC listed players when they were playing at Coburg, and we would train regularly at Punt Rd.
