20 CLOSING SYNCHRONIZE Legs should cycle underneath a vertical body position with perfectly timed front leg extension and back leg flexion in an effort to maximize leg frequency 40 20

21 BIG KNEES Optimizing the timing and magnitude of knee lift results in increased capacity to maximize force during stance 41 BIG FORCE Maximizing the technique during flight allows the athlete to optimize magnitude of force in the smallest ground contact time 42 21
