How to stop your toe dragging in high jump

The easiest way to stop dragging your toe when doing the high jump is to do the following.

1. Keep your toes up when you are running.
2. Focus on bouncing on the ball of your foot and your big toe.
3. Imagine that you are stepping over a box or stepping over your ankles.
4. Mentally visualize that you have a fast running turnover.
5. The last 3 steps should see you accelerate so that you actually run and explode off the ground.
6. Focus on jumping up (vertically)
7. Focus on driving your knee drive vertically (up)

Practice this off your short and long run-ups.

Adjust as necessary.

Record yourself on video and tweak until you aren’t dragging your toe anymore.
