The body posture during running race

I support that before changing any aspect of the art of running an athlete, this has to be very well thought out and compete in nearly biomechanical aspects or prevent injuries.

Normally we run with the body perpendicular to the ground or with a certain pitch forward. These two ways you can see the Olympic marathon in a bearing both similar results. So although racing speed is most commonly seen in type perpendicular Nor have failed elite runners with some tilt forward. Again I say that only in serious cases it is not desirable to change the way of running an athlete.

Arms

Like the preceding paragraph only give some theoretical notions. The arms have offset the movement of the hips and legs, elbows lead a bending close to ninety degrees and being close to the trunk. It must pass in the movement back to the hip and the forward movement should not be exaggerated, some brokers with a diagonal cross the trunk.

Hands

Two things iníciales, the doll not suffer isometric tension by carrying excess voltage, nor a relaxation leads to the excessive move alocadamente damaging the transmission of power from the rest of the vectors of momentum.

Many runners use the bottom half open hand and tension and background tend to have a midpoint of relegation, joining the thumb and index finger.
