Davan:
I hate doing this but you are a moron. This drill will not help Carl’s athlete in the intended means he wishes, not from my understanding of biomechanics, motor control, and motor learning. The stimulus is going to be a greater initial impulse. The effect is it is going to put athlete closer to the hurdle assuming the sled mechanics don’t become dominate. So the question becomes does this solve the problem? I say it makes him become a 7 step hurdler from the start and not an 8 step hurdler or it makes the problem worse. Your inability to see this is not my problem. How many years is Rican Hurlder removed from 39s and does he do this with 39s? If he does, it suggest a learned pattern, if he doesn’t do them at 39s its a guidance and obstacle negotiation problem and a drill such as this may or may not make this better or easier to accomplish! There’s a whole host of issues that the coach has to consider. I am saying Carl’s justification is wrong, although doing the drill may be correct.[/quote]
I dont understand, if davan is a moron why are you wasting your time explaing concepts in deep detail?
