What commenters say. Recommended as a foundational drill for teaching proper sprint posture and leg action, especially for younger athletes.

link to this video link to this video link to this video I will have the kids do drills like these, along a fence. I don't usually have them with as much lean as the first video, because its difficult on a fence, but these should give you a decent idea. You can have them all doing it at once, and walk around and correct any errors.
