Abstract

This article examines the fundamental aspects of short-distance running technique and its significance in athletic performance. It explores the biomechanical, physiological, and pedagogical principles involved in mastering the technique of sprinting. Key phases of sprint performance including the start, acceleration, and maximum velocity are discussed in terms of their technical execution. The importance of individualized instruction, the development of reaction time, and motor coordination are emphasized. Methodologies for detecting and correcting technical errors are presented alongside contemporary coaching strategies and the application of modern training tools. The article aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how sprinting technique can be effectively taught, developed, and optimized for performance.
