Re: [HJ] Seasons Greetings

Merry Christmas to all..
 
I'm currently starting my (true) freshman indoor season in college... I've started the season at 6'6 which is my PR, so I feel great about it so far, but am definently looking to go up, up, up...
 
My main problem now is adjusting to taking off from farther away from the bar, and being in the air longer.. and being able to maintain good form in that time span.
 
Any drills, lifting suggestions, or even just friendly advice from anybody that has made the transition from high school to college and/or higher heights where form matters more and more would be much appreciated.
 
Again, Merry Christmas to all!
 
- Aaron Cummins

For now here's wishing our 1155 members a wonderful Christmas and hoping that you all have the best of success in the coming year, be you a competitor, coach or parent.

Hi Aaron, I agree with Denis- during season, doing heavy olympic-style lifting doesn't help your verticle jump. I usually have my athletes do dynamic plyos,...
