For the past year, Rohan Browning and his coach Andrew Murphy have broken him down to build him up again. After the disappointment of Tokyo, they have retrained his body in how to explode out of the blocks mickgleeson
The biggest race of Rohan Browning’s life was over almost as soon as it began. Within a few steps, he had cost himself a chance of victory in his Olympic semi-final in Tokyo last year.
“I was losing races in the first 10 or 20 metres, so we focused on being a lot more consistent technically. We tried to break down some old motor patterns and overlay some new more efficient ones.“It was a bit of a process of taking a step back to take two steps forwards in the long term. It’s been something that has taken a while to get used to, to try to shorten that first stride a little bit so that I contact the ground under my hip rather than putting braking forces into the ground.

He wants another personal best at the majors.
In the lead-in to Eugene, and the Commonwealth Games beyond it, Browning also went to Italy to train for a period at the same place as“We were hoping to do a couple of training sessions with him, but he got injured so we were on a different training timeline so we haven’t really done anything together. I have met him and said hi and things, but we didn’t train together or anything like that which is unfortunate,” Browning said.He is now on terms with the world’s best.
