"The Butt-Kicking Epidemic"

MARCH 6, 2024

Participants of Day 1 of the Speed & Agility Running Clinic on Monday received these educational materials highlighting common examples of poor running form that can lead to frequent hamstring and quadriceps issues. These materials included excerpts from an article titled "Sprinting in Team Sport: The Butt-Kicking Epidemic" by Cameron Josse, sourced from SimpliFaster.com. This literature serves as a valuable resource for players to reference as they work on improving their running technique. The full article includes additional videos illustrating poor technique and the corresponding corrections for each identified issue.


Looking ahead, we are excited about the additional insights and guidance Coach DiVittorio will offer our soccer players on Day 2 of the clinic, scheduled for this Friday, 3/8, at 2:30 on the John Jay track!
