THIS IS HOW YOU TRAIN TO IMPROVE YOUR LONG JUMP TAKE-OFF

Video Time-line
0.00min: Intro
I take you through some drills and show you progressions as to how to get a great long jump take-off
I talk about positioning prior to take-off as being crucial and also the importance of getting a take-off drive.
0.50min: First part of session
Mat/platform on third step to take-off drill - performed on track (not at pit).
You'll see many of my jumpers in action.
I recommend a low intensity and quite a high number of reps to really learn the specific movements.
1.39min: I go through the drill's specific technical requirements
1.59min: Second part of session
2 Mat drill done at pit. Mat on third step out and on take-off
This is to develop greater speed through take-off.
I explain the technique required of the drill.
2,50min: Focus on Ignatius and his jumps from a full run-up.
He had a competition coming up so wanted to try to learn the take-off at speed. As you will see in the video he did well. I also show some take-offs where he did not do so well and explain why.
3.24min: Dividing the jump into thirds
This is so the jumper understands how to distribute the phases of their jump.
Without the mats we want the same take-off step pattern as achieved on the drills.
4.11min: More on the use of mats
There are numerous permutations for use.
4.37min: When this type of session is used.
4.50min: Summing up
