How to do high jump training at home.

December 21, 2016 by David

High jump at home

One of the challenges people have when it comes to doing high jump training is that they feel like they don’t have access to the necessary facilities to help them train. The good thing about the high jump event is that it relies more on the body’s physical conditioning rather than the technical aspects of […]

Do you jump over the bar correctly in high jump?

December 20, 2016 by David

High jump over the bar correctly

One of the common problems people experience when doing the high jump is that they don’t maximise their centre of gravity over the bar. The second major error that they tend to make is that they travel along the bar and end up landing on the bar, when they could have easily cleared the height. […]

How should you do high jump if it is rainy or wet conditions?

December 20, 2016 by David

High jump in the rain

Every high jumper dreads having to jump if it has been raining or if the ground is wet. Even slight dampness in the ground can make a huge difference to your run-up, take-off approach, jumping ability off the ground and safety. Ideally, you won’t have to jump in these conditions, however there will be times […]

Is endurance training good for high jumpers?

December 20, 2016 by David

Do I need endurance to be a good high jumper?

Endurance and stamina training are good for conditioning the body to do more intensive exercises, but it shouldn’t be at the heart of a high jumper’s training regime. There is nothing wrong with a high jumper having the speed endurance to run a 400m sprint in under 60 seconds, however if you train a high […]

How important is the knee drive in high jump?

December 20, 2016 by David

Zhu Jianhua High Jump knee drive

You can break down the phases of the high jump into factors that will contribute towards 80% of your performance and other factors that will contribute towards 20% of your performance. In my own opinion, the knee drive can make a substantial difference to your performance, but I think it falls into the 20%. The […]

Improve your vertical jumping ability in high jump with hurdle jumps.

December 20, 2016 by David

Trey Hardee Hurdle Hops (Plyometric jump exercises)

When I was training for the high jump, this was my favourite plyometric exercise because it greatly improved the elasticity in my legs. What this means is it made me feel more ‘springy’, thus it was much easier to jump higher. It is a plyometric exercise that I would encourage all high jumpers to include […]

Should I wear high jump spikes to improve my performance?

December 20, 2016 by David

Adidas Adizero High jump spikes

Have you been high jumping in normal shoes, running spikes or even barefoot? Do you think that investing in high jump spikes will improve your performance? To excel in high jump, you want to have the right apparel that will allow you to train and perform effectively. BUT, upgrading to high jump spikes won’t automatically […]

How important is it to visualize when doing high jump?

December 19, 2016 by David

Javier Sotomayor World Record Holder High Jump Visualization

Visualization is a key part to your success in high jump. Many elite athletes use visualization techniques to gain a competitive edge over their competitors and to train their body and mind to execute the necessary movements that will allow them to perfect their approach, take-off and clearance over the bar. Typically, you will see […]

How much money do high jumpers make

Have you ever wondered how much money high jumpers make in their career and wondered whether it can be pursued as a profession? Many track and field athletes struggle to earn an income from the sport and are driven by their will to achieve ‘Olympic glory’ rather than pursuing financial gain. Even those athletes that […]

White men can’t jump? Neither can any other ethnic race except black! That is simply not true.

December 18, 2016 by David

High jumpers

It’s time to separate fact from fiction. Ever since Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson graced shared their basketball skills on screen, the phrase “White men can’t jump”has been an assumption in society. It goes a bit further to assume that the best jumpers or even athletes in the world are of black heritage. There are […]
