ASPECTS CONCERNING THE IMPORTANCE OF TECHNICAL IMPROVEMENT IN MIDDLEDISTANCE TRACK RUNNING TRIALS

Abstract

No matter how "curious" or less credible it might seem, high performance in athletics equally depends on the correct manifestation of the technique of running in the dynamic of the movement components. Permanent monitoring of its kinematic parameters allows us to acquire important data for the improvement of the technique and boosts the efficiency of running. Unfortunately, as Moris Huvion says, there are so many specialists who, as a result of such studies, "see what they know, not what they have to". The purpose of the research is to analyse the key points of the midddledistance track running trials by means of video analysis, in order to identify and remove both the unsatisfactory issues improperly acquired and the unnecessary movements occurring once the state of fatigue is experienced.
