Do We Need To Teach Dorsiflexion?

Hey gang - this question was posed by Coach Jeremy Boone of Athlete By Design; http://www.athletebydesign.com.

My take is that, though many athletes dorsiflex naturally during acceleration/deceleration/plyometrics, many do not, which is why the step is still taught in most speed training coursework.

What are your thoughts?
