notes:
-pr’s all around today. wind was pretty negligable and was a headwind if blowing at all yet i managed to run bests in all three tests. vertical wasnt as great as its been but i guess thats to be expected after a better than normal running session
-all times are from video frames
-in the 30m i tried to keep lower longer and it seems to have worked as with no tailwind i still ran my best. i liked the fly much better with a larger run-in, one can see my time improved a lot. i just kept running a’s in my head and my hip height, rom and such looks much better
vertical jump from today, bit lower than usual (i can get rim most of the time) im trying to reduce my angle before jumping bc its kinda deep. produce force more quickly is the goal
you have to show the coach you have sub 11 potential to be on a track team is where you want to be. Running fast:-controlling your cog in a forward plane and having a training plan is not the whole equation.
You are taking off flat footed with knees forward. Try transferring weight backward by having the knees back, heel up and toes dorsiflexed. The goal is to make the jump more quad dominant with less ground contact.
so closer to a right angle for my foot and shin, knees more in a squat position which would mean more of a forward angle for my back to keep balance i assume. i notice many of the better nfl combine jumpers do those
functional warm up
1600m grass tempo
(2, 5x1, 1, 5x1, 2)
jump rope
fri lifting
static stretch
notes:
-i think i will restructure my weekly schedule for the week and a half before i leave for college orientation i also need to talk to the coach abut access to training facilities for the week before practice starts
-lower quad soreness, minor pectoral soreness
I just mean the angle between my calf and hammy be smaller. Create more of a negative shin angle with the ground. And if I’m to do this the way to not shorten stride would be to rotate the hip like u said
Functional warm up
3x45s hill runs r: 8 min
Circuits b
Static stretch
Notes:
-wont have access to my usual gym or a track for the next ten days so ill be creative. I’m suppose to unload this week anyways
-tried a couple verts with sadys advice, felt good but idk yet what ill measure
Doesn’t that have less to do with consciously trying than it does with having the strength not for the joint to collapse. I’ve just been trying to dorsiflex then push thru ground contact, or should i not cue with that and try to force ankle collapsing
The only untrained muscle that can lift the bodyweight 100 times when isolated is the calf. It is the strongest muscle in the body.
Bruce Lee said something like – the most power/force is applied when you strike something if you do not try to punch through it.
Charlie Francis said something like – when spinning a wheel by hand sharp jabs is the way to go.
By lifting your heels higher off the ground and keeping the bodyline I mentioned earlier you are overbalancing more. Do not try for triple extension go for distance.
