Abstract

The purpose of the study was to find out the relationship of stride length, stride time and stride frequency on 100m sprint performance. For this purpose, 13 university level sprinters were selected from different colleges and athletic club in Chennai. The subjects were captured while running 100 meters sprint on mud track using four Y1 cameras with f/2.8 aperture lens with 155 degrees of view, resolution at 1080p and 60fps. All the 4 cameras were mounted at a height of 0.93 meters with the equal distance of seven meters from plane of motion. Video was captured from 40 meters to 68 meters of 100 m performance. The performance of 100 meter sprint was measured in 1/100 of a second. The captured video was analyzed by KINOVEA software to find out the stride length (meters), stride time (seconds) and stride frequency (strides/s). The collected data were analysed using Pearson product moment correlation to find the relationship of stride length, stride time and stride frequency on 100m sprint performance. In all cases, level of significance was fixed at 0.05. It was concluded that stride length and stride frequency had significant correlation with 100m sprint performance.
