Enroll now in Fundamentals of Sprinting | A Complete Biomechanics Course
Sharpen your eye. Fix inefficient mechanics. Unlock faster, healthier athletes.

Most speed programs show drills, cues, or outputs. Few show you how to actually analyze mechanics and make real changes.

That’s where Jeff Moyer’s Fundamentals of Sprinting | A Complete Biomechanics Course comes in.

​​​​​​​Built on 10 years of studying under Dr. Michael Yessis and working with athletes from high school to the pros, this course goes far beyond theory — it gives you the framework, tools, and applied methods to transform how your athletes sprint.
​​​​​​​
"I can genuinely recommend this course to everyone working with athletes in the context of sprinting. Jeff breaks down complex processes to practical advice and shares an easy to implement framework for analysis and training in individual athletes and team sports.“

Meet Jeff Moyer

Jeff Moyer is the owner and director of DC Sports Training in Pittsburgh, PA, where he has spent more than 15 years coaching athletes from youth to the professional level. He is widely regarded as one of the leading voices in sprint biomechanics and physical preparation, apprenticing under Dr. Michael Yessis — the pioneer who brought Soviet sport science to the United States.

Jeff’s background blends cutting-edge biomechanics, kinesiology, and applied strength training. He has worked across sports including football, soccer, baseball, track & field, and basketball, specializing in sprint development, return-to-play, and bridging the gap between research and real-world performance.

In addition to his coaching, Jeff regularly teaches on biomechanics, motor learning, and special strength exercises, equipping coaches with the tools to analyze movement, sharpen their eye, and make impactful changes with their athletes. His work draws from both classical research — including Soviet Sports Review archives — and modern applied sport science, giving coaches a unique balance of history, science, and practicality.

          “Jeff Moyer is one of the most well-rounded, knowledgable coaches I’ve come across in the field of athletic development. In this course, he doesn’t just share information — he connects the dots between history, biomechanics, and modern application in a way that’s easy to understand and immediately useful.

          What really stood out to me is how Jeff draws from the guidance of Dr. Yessis and shows how much of the original Russian research has been backed up by current studies. He breaks things down biomechanically with clarity, and then shows exactly how he addresses those findings in training.

          This course is a great reflection of Jeff’s ability to take deep knowledge and make it practical. He give immediate tools to help evaluate and intervene with athletes in any setting.”

          “Jeff is a wealth of knowledge! I’ve known him for years and this course displayed his passion and expertise in the field. In addition, this course could be used as an introduction to a true biomechanical analysis, which is much needed in this field.

          His breakdown of the history, which is something in appreciate, and the acceleration mechanics has elevated my coaching eye. Not only does he breakdown the mechanics these athletes are in but he also, which isn’t common because everyone wants to keeps “secrets”, provides exercises you can do to improve the athlete. I appreciate his transparency in this course!”
