Master the curve and take your high jump technique to the next level!
The approach in the high jump is crucial because it sets the foundation for the rest of the jump. If the approach is incorrect, it can lead to problems at takeoff and ultimately result in a failed jump. The "J-curve" technique, also known as running the curve, is a key aspect of the approach that requires precision and proper execution.
By learning when and how to run the curve, you'll be able to initiate the turn at the right point in your approach and maintain the proper angle and trajectory as you approach the bar. This will give you the best chance of clearing the bar successfully and achieving your personal best.
In this video, you'll not only learn the technical aspects of the J-curve, but you'll also get valuable athlete insight from high jumpers who have mastered this technique.
Athlete insight sections include Collin Scheer sharing his personal experiences with running the turn and insight on how to execute this portion of the jump effectively. Chris Helwick shares a cue that has helped him to initiate the curve properly to ensure an optimal approach.
