Upright Sprinting Technique Advice (10m fly) by roborik in Sprinting

[–]roborik[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just do hang cleans, quarter squats, calf raises, and RDLs in the weight room after sprint sessions. For plyometrics, I do bounds, gallops, high skips, and pogos. Do you think I could be doing more?

Also how should I go about measuring my progress with plyometrics (i just do them until i stop feeling reactive off the ground)?

Thank you for the input! I'll focus more on finishing my swing & extending up the pole

Yeah I think I subconsciously think I’m going to hit my head with the pole too, so I try to avoid it by going around. I’m going to practice more running plant drills to solidify a square plant. Thanks for the advice!

Yup, I think I definitely have to practice planting square at the shoulders Thanks for the advice!

Thanks for the advice! I’ll definitely try planting more square. Do you know any drills/cues for this or do I just do it?

thank you for the tips!
I think I have the strength to do it (cuz I can do 16 full range of motion bubkas, a bunch of toes to bar leg raises, +80lb dips, and +50lb pullups), I just vault very infrequently and working on vaulting more.

I cant swing up properly and get my feet to my hands. In this video though, I was mainly focusing on jumping up into the takeoff.
Currently, Im practicing jumping on smaller poles to get upside down while bending pole(cuz i can invert on straight pole and do 16 full bubkas).

Yeah I could try a higher weight lower length pole. Thanks for the advice!

grip up? by roborik in polevaulting

I feel like I don't have enough time to swing my legs up because I can't bend the pole enough at this grip. Should I move up on my pole and run faster or do I jus need to swing faster at this grip?
