How should I divide up my vault practices. I usually take 3 to 5 four left vaults then vault from seven for the rest of the practice. Should I spend more time on short runs ( like whole practices at a time). I usually vault twice a week and maybe 3 times in the spring

What points of focus should an athlete have if looking to make major improvements on their speed at take off and the strength of their run up?

I have greatly improved since then and have had good looks at 14' from a 5 step (went back to a 3 and have been working my way back since then). I still have many things to work on and look forward...

What are the most important technical aspects (In a list) of the russian/bubka model? i.e. what aspects can add the most to a jump when perfected? Give explanations

anyone got a good plyo workout?
