A higher speed is ability to accelerate for longer or faster. They get treated as separate concepts but are actually very similar. Motion is also created nearly the same way in both, it’s just that during max velocity, the body is constrained so much by contact time that it becomes more subtle. #jakepirnazar

I think max velocity acceleration are wrongfully split up into two separate categories when they're actually much more similar than people realize. A definition reaching a higher max velocity means the individual must accelerate through more difficult conditions, meaning faster ground contact times, the ground moving faster underneath you. Ultimately, everything that we see during max velocity is because something got constrained. For example, if we saw my video on understanding positioning of the torso, you'll understand the dynamic between positioning of the torso, leg reed positioning time, ground contact time, and stance time. And as ground contact time becomes more constrained, alters that dynamic, pushing the torso upward. And even though it doesn't look that way, the body is actually creating motion nearly the exact same way. This could all forward look a motion is the femur rotating over the tibia. That might be clear during acceleration because you can visually see a pushing pattern that same position is actually manufactured at top speed, it's just created after ground contact occurs. It's nearly the same pattern, it's just constraints force it to occur in a different way.
