Hurdling Technique Overview

The video explains the technique of hurdling, focusing on how to efficiently cross the hurdle. It emphasizes maintaining a low and horizontal center of gravity rather than a vertical posture to optimize speed and balance.

Key Points

Lead with the knee when approaching the hurdle.
Extend the leg to land on the front or middle of the foot.
Lean the torso forward toward the stomach.

This forward lean helps propel the athlete forward rather than upward and ensures that upon landing, the pelvis remains ahead of the support foot. This positioning allows the hurdler to quickly regain speed after clearing the hurdle.
