Lean-Fall-Run

Who has the best booties? Sprinters. Well, sprinters and pole vaulters. The "lean-fall-run" drill is your introduction to sprinting. The two things to remember are driving hard off your initial foot fall (power to the ground is speed) and turning over your feet as quickly as possible while you maintain the lean angle. Go for 5 steps and switch feet each time.

Coach Stevo's Top Tips

  • Think, "Lean...Fall... DRIVE! 2,3,4,5, STOP!"
  • Maintain your angle for the full 5 steps.
