Sticking with the basics to fix sprinting mechanics! One of the biggest mistakes I see young athletes make, whether it's coming out of the blocks or their first few steps out of the batter's box, many kids have a tendency to "reach" with their hips. This puts their pelvis in an anterior tilt and slows down the hip muscles. In the first exercise, you can see is focusing on core and hip stability while she pushes into the wall. Concentrating on keeping the pelvis in a posterior tilt allows for better force production during a sprint. In the second exercise she is maintaining that pelvis position while working on quickness and proper arm drive.
