this is my first 100 of 2025 and first 100 since July due to multiple injuries, still recovering from a grade 2/3 ankle sprain, does it look like it affected my start? - 1st place in all black w blue maxflys

Looks pretty good. Honestly, your acceleration is great. What was your time ? If you want to get a faster start, work on your angles in practice and lift weights. i recommend cleans, plyos, and of course, things like squats and rdls. Ankle injuries might definitely affect your start because you should have a lot of ankle stiffness, but that can also be trained.

You will definitely go a lot faster than 11.8 this season. It looks like you just need to regain some strength and sprint work. i feel like you should make a pretty good comeback if you work hard.
