πŸš€ Parents – this is the first acceleration drill we teach.

If your child can’t get into the right positions, they won’t accelerate as efficiently as they could.

That’s why, before we sprint fast, we teach athletes how to create the shapes needed for acceleration.

One of the first drills we use is a wall drill.

The purpose?

To teach athletes how to project their hips forward and create the body position needed for powerful acceleration.

The cues we use are:

βœ… Body in a straight line at roughly 45 degrees (the β€œget set” position)

βœ… Push the hips back by bending at the knees and ankles

βœ… Let the arms become long as the hips move back

βœ… Throw the hips and head forward so the head moves over the hands

Mastering these positions helps young athletes develop the mechanics needed for faster acceleration, better first steps and improved sprint performance.

May has been a fantastic month at Hull Speed Academy πŸš€

Over the last few weeks we’ve been busy helping young athletes across Hull and the East Riding get faster, stronger and more athletic.

One of the highlights was completing speed gate testing with both our Friday Night Academy and our track & field athletes. Regular testing helps us track progress, identify areas for improvement and show athletes exactly how their hard work is paying off. With many football, rugby and other team sport seasons now coming to an end, it’s the perfect time to assess where athletes are and start planning for the off season.

Our Monday Academy continues to grow and it’s been brilliant seeing so many young athletes developing their speed, agility and confidence while having fun with their training.

Our Tuesday night sessions have continued to be full, and we recently welcomed ice hockey player Charlie into our 6:30pm group. He has settled in brilliantly and is already making great progress πŸ‘πŸ»

Our track & field athletes also enjoyed a successful County Championships, producing multiple personal bests and bringing home several medals πŸ…

There was also plenty of competition during our single leg broad jump challenge, which proved hugely popular with the athletes!

A special mention must go to all of our athletes currently sitting exams. Balancing school, revision and training isn’t easy, but they’ve all done a fantastic job and should be proud of themselves.

What’s coming up in June?

June is shaping up to be another exciting month.

I’ll be heading back to Nottingham to deliver the off ice programme for Elite British Selects, and there are also a couple of exciting announcements coming from Hull Speed Academy over the next few weeks.

If you’re a parent looking to help your child improve their speed, agility, strength and athletic performance, we’d love to help.

Simply comment YOUTH below and I’ll send you more information about our sessions in Hull and the East Riding. πŸ‘‡
