Leg Trailing Quote by MacKenzie, Brian

“Here I am pushing off the ground with a forward leg swing. Notice that my left leg is trailing behind my body and that I’m landing on the heel of my left foot. In addition to slowing down my momentum, this faulty mechanic restricts the efficiency of my stride and increases my chances of injury.” quote by MacKenzie, Brian
