Full Run TROUBLES:striding, posture, hands....
Posted: Mon Mar 28, 2016 1:43 pm
hello my name is Drew, quick bio about me; i am a college freshmen at a large d1 sec school. jumped my pr of 17'2" back in highschool. always been a consistent vaulter(never no heighted, alwasy cleared atleast 3 bars). recently ive come to college and gained tremendous strength and speed that i didnt have in highschool. my short runs(4l-6l) are feeling great. clearing 5m with ease from 5l on a 15ft pole. as soon as i try to get back to competetion full runs i cant seem to get my run down and i take off a foot under at the minimum. i jump on 5m poles due to a strong, consistent run and a good takeoff but now i cant get my grip past 15'6. my take off needs to be around 13'10 -14' and i am 12' on the dot. i do pole runs 3 times a week and hit 14' consistently with no problems. once i actually go on the runway i start consistently but the last 3l or so are leaning back, low hips, decreases speed, and forcing me to heel strike. my hands tend to be a tad bit late aswell. i have no heighted in 4 of my last 6 meets... only cleared my opening height of 16'3" so far. I am trying to understand and fix what is wrong because i am not the vaulter i know i can be. here is a link to some of my previous jumps and current jumps. please cretique and criticize as much as possible. any cues, drills, or mental thoughts are appreciated thank you. https://youtu.be/cgoIqpUNknQ
