I've re-read some of the older posts and I have another question here, regarding Anthony Colotti's statement on Coe's form.
Mr Colotti: +What sort of "kinetic chain imbalances" did Coe accumulate as a result of his training? And what aspects of his training do you see as being the culprits?
I notice that Coe ran with his left shoulder higher than his right, and his arm swing was smoother & wider on the right & his left arm had a more choppy & tighter action. I saw this as the result of making too many left turns on the track over the years, such that he was always compensating.
But it also seems like he had a glaring leg length discrepancy, esp when I watched a clip on "Born to Run" with him doing double-legged leg presses; both legs did not push forward and recover at the same time & pace. Is this true?
