Considerations
- This sprinter has a very bad attitude during the push of the left leg
- The speed curve is strongly affected by this lack of force in the sprint direction (see the diagram and notice how there is a missing speed improvement during the first two steps)
- All the data show an asymmetry between right and left supports
