Quick Technique Tips

Essential reminders to improve your hurdling form

Keep Your Eyes on the Horizon

Maintain your gaze forward, not down at the hurdle. This helps with balance and keeps your posture upright.

Attack the Hurdle

Don't jump over hurdles; attack them by driving your lead knee forward and up while keeping your torso tall.

Consistent Three-Step Rhythm

For 110m/100m hurdles, master the three-step pattern between hurdles for optimal speed maintenance.

Quick Lead Arm Action

Use a fast, compact lead arm motion to counterbalance your lead leg and maintain forward momentum.
