What are the key points of backward running?

There are many types of running that people do. When doing sprinting, they all start with the back-push-back running move, which usually involves kneeling on one foot with the feet crossed front and back. After hearing the command, the back foot pushes back to give the body a force to accelerate forward. This allows the body to run faster and be fully prepared for the next fast run. If you don't know the key points of the back-push-back running move, let's learn about it in detail below.

Back-kick running action essentials:

Basic posture: upper body upright or slightly leaning forward, arms swinging vigorously back and forth.

Push off the ground: fully extend the hip joint, with the knee and ankle joints extending backwards. The backward push is powerful, the center of gravity moves forward, and the body is more relaxed.

Forward stride: When the swinging leg actively swings forward and upward to a horizontal or nearly horizontal position, it drives the hip on the same side to move forward fully. At the same time, the knee joint relaxes and the thigh is actively pressed down.

Pull back: Push your calf forward until the forefoot touches the ground, cushion the impact, and quickly move into the back push.

Note the difference between back kick and step: the step jump is upward, including swinging the arms and circling upward at the same time for the purpose of rising up and moving forward at the same time; requirements - the back leg is pushed hard, the front leg is bent at the knee and pushed forward, the calf is actively pulled back when landing, the soles of the feet dig into the ground, the arms are lifted and swung to shoulder height to brake, and there is obvious time in the air.

Fast Run:

Standing start

Stand with your knees bent, front and back, with your front toes pointing toward the back edge of the line.

Place your weight on your front foot and extend your opposite arm forward.

Lean your upper body forward and take a deep breath. When the gun sounds, push off the ground and swing your arms quickly.
