On “How to push off using toes”

No, your toes are in the equation to keep you balanced, but you're not supposed to literally use your toes to push. Stand with a 45-degree angle on a wall and do some knee drives trying to push into the wall. Check this videoWall Drill out for reference. Look at his feet and note where he's landing.

On “16r old - faster without blocks”

youtu.be/Qt6q--Lx4KM Practise doing something like that for about 30 seconds. I think it's better to do that with a fence with gaps in it so she can actually grip the fence and get a straight line all the way from her arms down to her feet when setting up the drill
