2nd QUESTION: What type of contact is sought in the penultimate support?
Full and fast plant contact
Exclusive metatarsal attack
Prolonged deep heel support
Lateral support of the foot to balance
3rd QUESTION: What effect does the penultimate step have on the beating leg?
Delay the leg with respect to the trunk
Keeps it aligned under the hips
Flexes leg to shorten leverage
Significantly advances the stride by creating a long lever
QUESTION 4: What would happen if the kicking foot lands just below the hips?
More height would be generated at take-off
Inertia would be completely lost
The athlete would exit with a lot of horizontal speed but no height
It would lock the ankle avoiding braking
QUESTION 5: What is the purpose of the blocking angle generated by advancing the beating foot?
To initiate the swing before take-off
To increase stride length during running
To reduce trunk rotation during flight
To convert horizontal speed into vertical speed
QUESTION 6: How should the hips drop on the penultimate step so as not to brake?
Passive and deep as a seat
Active and rhythmic while maintaining inertia
Slow and steady to stabilize
Abrupt with marked heel strike
7th QUESTION: What is the recommended pace between the penultimate and the last step?
Ta-so accelerated
