Block Starts

null

Here is what your block starts should look like. You should get a good push off of the blocks. None of these guys stand up right out of their blocks, that defeats the purpose!! Look at how these guys have their heads down and are pumping their arms and really driving their knees up. Also, look at how slowly they straighten up. It isn't all at once. These guys don't fully open up and get to top speed until they are almost halfway through the race. But definitely NO SHOWBOATING like Usain Bolt is doing here!!!
