Dan Pfaff explains why flight time is critical in maximal velocity sprinting and how coaches should analyze movement during flight.

🔎 If your eye goes straight to ground contact at top speed, you are already late. At maximal velocity, elite sprinters spend more time in flight than in ground contact. That means many of the outcomes you see on the ground are decided earlier, while the athlete is reorganizing between steps. Most coaches were never trained to see or prioritize that. 🎓 The Coaching Eye Program was built to help you solve problems like this... Inside the program, Dan Pfaff teaches you how to understand movement, and he guides you through sprinting at real speed: what he looks for first, and how he makes decisions when there is no time to guess. This is about learning to see the cause, not chase the outcome. The January cohort starts January 10. Enrollment is nearly at capacity. Once the group fills, registration closes.
