OK

Only if he uses a 2 arm shift - use low hurdles
> 3) Tempo accelerations to work on smooth approach.
OK
> 4) Backward flops off box for in the air body mechanics.
OK but also off floor is good

plus Technical work off 4-6 strides - easier to develop consistency and
attack. I am assuming a walk on start. Long runs and tall skinny novice
youngsters dont go that well together
