I will not stop wearing a weight vest until I am running sub 9 100m link to this video

On “How much does 23% body fat slows me down? Is it a big deal? And if so, how low should I get my body fat to reach my potential?”

…ride....sure, still a penalty as each step you as slow down and speed up. Also, Cody theorized a little bit of extra load pushing down vertically might reduce flight times in early accel and keep you glued to the ground more for more time pushing back. Again, the net effect loaded is slower, but not as much in early accel as one would think. [video In acceleration one has a surplus of force as you are gaining speed with every step. At a stabilized MaxV, all the forces are sorta equalized (breaking force vs horizontal pushoff; vertical GRF vs gravity x mass of athlete falling, etc), and extra load really messes with the system.…
