When all the skaters have been called, the start judge gives them the authorisation to take their place on the starting line by saying “in position”. the skaters have 5 seconds to take their starting position. On command 'set' the sprinter's shoulders should be ahead of the starting line and hips a raise slightly above the shoulder level. front leg is flexed at about 90° while rear leg makes 102° to 110° angle, depending upon the hips, arms, fingers and strength. Watch successful middle distance runners and you find that they seem to always be in the right place (either at the front, on the leaders shoulder or drafting off a front runner) at the right time to leverage their strengths (pushing from the front, sitting and kicking, etc.). Start in a push up position and lower yourself onto your forearms. keep your body in a straight line from head to toe and hold the position for as long as possible.
