PRO Sprinters do NOT land under their Center of Mass!!!

Finally we can put to bed the age old MYTH that pro sprinters strike the ground UNDER their COM/hip.

"Landing point" really isn't debatable. It's the microsecond that the foot makes contact with the ground. How can it possibly be anything else? It's not 2/4/10 or even 1 single frame after the initial contact point...It IS the initial contact point.

In this video we take a look at the actual footage of Usain Bolt and Justin Gatlin and others, to show the landing points of these runners.

So is the advice you're hearing, including some actual pro athletes telling you that you MUST strike the ground under your COM/COG/hip good advice? Or that you're over striding if you aren't landing under your COM/COG/hip?

Watch the video and start seeing what's in front of your eyes!
