RELAY

 Hai everyone.... as you guys know that I had share with you guys about sprinting technique and I hope you can get some useful information from that. Now I want share some relay technique. I'm sure you guys know what is relay about. Let me tell you what I know about relay. A relay is a track and field event in which athletes run a pre-set distance carrying a baton before passing it onto the next runner. Often, a relay team is a team of four sprinters. In athletics there are two standard relay which is 4x100m and 4x400m.  

The technique that I want to share in relay is passing baton technique. There are three type of technique that had been used:  

Upsweep Technique

The receiving hand is extended behind them at hip height with the palm facing down and a wide angle between the thumb and the rest of the fingers. The incoming athlete passes the baton in an upward movement into the receiving hand. The advantage of this method is that this is a normal position for the receiving hand. A disadvantage is that it may require some manipulation of the baton in the hand to make the next exchange safely.

Downsweep Technique

The receiving hand is extended behind them at hip height with the palm facing up and a wide angle between the thumb and the rest of the fingers. The incoming athlete passes the baton in a downward movement into the receiving hand. The advantage of this method is that it will require no manipulation of the baton to safely make the next baton exchange. A disadvantage is that it is not a natural position of the outgoing athlete's hand to receive the baton.

Push- Pass Technique

The outgoing runner's arm is extended out behind them parallel to the ground and the hand is open with the thumb pointing down. The incoming runner holds the baton vertically and pushes it straight into the open hand.

According to Coach Hart it is the outgoing athlete that is key. He or she must get moving fast and let the incoming athlete adjust. The key to the exchange is that the outgoing athlete is going to reach back and snatch or grab the baton from the incoming runner. The incoming runner is not giving the baton, but rather it is being taken from them.

The outgoing gunner will begin sprinting and when he or she hears the call, they reach back and grab. The incoming runner’s responsibility is to signal the runner and put the baton slightly outside the elbow. The outgoing runner is taught to bring his hand back such that his thumb clips his hip and then open his or her hand.  The outgoing runner will grab and snatch the baton from the incoming runner. Should they miss, the outgoing gunner simply reaches back again.

SPRINTING DRILLS

 Assalamualaikum everyone? how you guys are doing? hope you guys are always in a good condition.

Based on Jacky Anderson sprinting is running over a short distance in a limited period of time. It is used in many sports that incorporate running, typically as a way of quickly reaching a target or goal, or avoiding or catching an opponent. You want to get faster. Who doesn’t? But in order to supercharge your sprints, you need to get the basics down first. Sprinting is about more than just being fast. Here I have some tips on sprinting technique drills.

Raise Knees: 10 meters – jog – 10 meters – rest

Sprint 10 meters concentrating on raising knees as higher than normal. Jog for 10 meters and then sprint for 10 meters and rest.

Fast Knee Pick Ups: 10 meters – jog – 10 meters – rest

Jogging on the spot raise your knees to waist height while emphasizing arm action. Move forward 10 meters with this action concentrating on the number of ground contacts rather than how fast you cover the distance. Try to get as many ground contacts as possible.

Flicks: 10 meters – jog – 10 meters – rest

While sprinting over 10 meters concentrate on flicking your heels up to touch your butt.

Skipping: 40 meters

Bound from one foot to the other. The action is similar to skipping except your are trying to gain as much height as possible and stay in the air for as long as possible. Remember to recover fully between attempts.

Getting out into nature decreases what psychologists call rumination, which are negative thought patterns that play over and over in our heads such as dwelling on embarrassing or disappointing moments or thinking about everything we think is wrong with our lives.

According to Dr Baggish (September 28, 2016) Particularly if your route includes some hills, which will force your heart to work harder. Taking a hike on the slightly uneven surface of a trail also provides a natural way to engage the core muscles in your torso and to hone your balance skills.
