How to practice fast jumps

In order to adapt to the trend of triple jump technology developing towards speed, we should choose some fast jumping exercises with running-up or timed jumping exercises to replace some traditional jumping exercises. These exercises should preferably consist of near-specific single-leg hopping exercises with a running start, and the athlete should have speed requirements when performing these exercises.

For example: five-step jump with a run-up, five-step hop with a run-up, ten-step jump with a run-up, ten-step hop with a run-up, 50-60m timing step jump, 50-60m timing hop, 50-60m timing two single step jumps. When developing an athlete's ability to jump quickly, the following aspects should be noted:

(a) When performing fast jumping exercises, a 5-6-step run-up is generally used. As the athlete's training level gradually improves, the number of steps and the speed of the run-up can be appropriately increased.

(ii) At the beginning of training, you should first practice various jumping exercises on soft ground, such as a sawdust track or lawn. If conditions permit, it is best to practice on the beach. After a period of adaptive training, practice on the track.

(3) According to the principle of gradual progress, when performing various jumping exercises, we must first emphasize the quantity of exercises, that is, the number of repetitions of the exercises, and then require the intensity of the exercises.

(iv) When performing any kind of jumping exercise, the amplitude of the movement must be required first. When the athlete is able to correctly complete the movement with a large amplitude, the speed of the movement must be required accordingly.

Although long jump is a very good sport, you should pay attention to protecting your ankles and knees during training. You cannot train too hard for the long jump, as this will cause counterproductive effects. Therefore, you need to be extra careful. In addition, when long jumping, you can combine it with running and other exercises to enhance the strength of your steps, which is also beneficial to your long jump training.
