In this episode Gerry gives a full breakdown on acceleration, the fallacy of "quick feet," and how you can build fast and efficient acceleration.

To start, the breakdown encompasses a full explanation of the force required and needed to accelerate effectively and a full breakdown of the inaccuracies of desiring or working on "quick feet," to get more explosive in acceleration and speed in general.

From there, Gerry discusses the mechanical aspects of acceleration, how you can coach them and what you can look for when aiming to master this portion of your sprint.

To finish-up, the conversation turns to useful means to develop forceful strides early in your sprint, sled sprinting and various cues that can help build acceleration mechanics.

All that and more on this episode of Muscles and Management!
