Patient Powerful Pushing
First 2-5 Step Acceleration Development System
Purpose
This drill progression teaches athletes how to:
- project force horizontally
- stay patient during acceleration
- create powerful pushing mechanics
- maintain shin angles
- build speed gradually
The goal is NOT to move your legs faster.
The goal is to:
Push farther before cycling.
Most athletes try to accelerate by moving their feet quickly.
Elite accelerators create speed by producing force into the ground and allowing speed to build naturally.
