How do i quit studder stepping on the 300 m hurdles?

Right now i can only jump hurdles with my left leg as lead. would it be worth it to learn how to do it with my right leg as lead, or should i have a fixed number of strides in between each hurdle?|||1 nobody does 300 hurdles anymore


#2 every 400m hurdler NEEDS to know how to jump with both legs.


#3 you need to practice hurdles ( with steps) everyday AT FULL SPEED





that is the only way to not be timid and stutter step|||ignorant comment i run the three hundred hurdle for a high school track team and its still highly looked upon they brought it to a four hundred because its supposed to be an endurance race and it became a sprint!!

|||Ideally both. If you know how to hurdle with both legs you can adjust if you make a mistake or are tiring at the end of a race and aren't going to hit your steps. If you have a fixed number of strides between hurdles then you can focus on hitting your strides which will eliminate the stutter stepping. Don't be distracted by some who don't realize that the 300 hurdles are still runor that you are not going to be running as fast as you are capable of running at the end of a 300 race when you are tired which is another reason you should run a fixed number of steps. Realize that the steps don't have to be uniform throughout the race. You can start with, for example, 15 and after 7 hurdles cut back to 17, it all depends on your abilities.


Good luck!|||The reason for maybe lack of confidence or technique. You need to learn to jump hurdles with both legs. Yes there should be a fixed number of strides in between hurdles, this also causes studder stepping and injuries. 300 hurdles are still run as a high school meet in some states.|||Actually, I live in Illinois and the 300m hurdles is a high school track event.





All I can say is practice makes perfect, once it's warm out run out there everyday, I can't think of much else, sorry





Good luck :)|||i used to run the 300m and had the exact same problem! lol, uhm definately try to learn both! it will help you soooooo sooo much!|||practice not studder stepping, duh
