The initial problem is in coming off the blocks.He has too mush shoulders over the line.He needs to adjust the blocks 6 inches backwards,to compensate for the length od his legs,thus creating a smoother transition from blocks to the first stride,thus creating a more rolling motion and a smoother transition from ''set'' to when the gun goes off.No science is required to solve this!

You have to stand up and take notice what he did at the olympics obliterated all previous sprinters. The sheer power and technique was so far ahead of his competitors ina sport that is counted in thousandths of a second is breathaking. I have never seen dominance like that before Watching this video usain looks like a cheetah in the burst.interesting to see the dynamics and body mechanics behind his success.

Worth almost .2 to .3 tenths of second over the whole race. That mean someone like Usain Bolt, Tyson gay would run in the 9.50 range for 100m easily. And the indoor 60m record would drop to about 6.20. Using the above start in the video, a sprinter could take from 1 to 2 less steps in the first 10m of a race.
