How do you improve your jump by 1 centimeter every year? I
know it's difficult to achieve this goal, but it is possible, and I can prove
that. Everything is a matter of
discipline, patience and perseverance, the only problem is, no matter how much
talent you have, if you as an athlete have never worked on the fundamental
basis of triple jump, it will be very difficult to achieve good results.
What is the fundamental basis of Triple jump? It is the foundation that gives us a sense of
rhythm, coordination, speed control, the sense of reaction on the ground at the
moment of takeoff and landing, and the power to recognize the time and space
between jumps.
The importance of this technique is such, that the athlete
always has to work with it jump throughout the whole year -even an athlete who
is only beginning to specialize in triple jump, or a professional athlete. When
a coach is able to make a good training program and emphasize this type of
foundation in all its training phases, work with the athlete will be easier and
of an even higher quality. You will also be able to have a better observation
of the athlete’s development.
The beginning of the Basis of General Physical Preparation
normally start in October, but many countries have different systems of working with it; for example some countries begin in October and others begin in November. For me the
perfect month to start is in October, as indoor competitions begin in December,
and it is the perfect time to develop speed and the technique, even when the
athlete is overloaded.
Many athletes just focuses
on indoor competitions and at the same time they want to have better results outdoor.
This way is not a problem in itself, but many coaches, without thinking of the
consequences, change the training system and they focus only on getting better
results in indoor competitions and then forget the consequences that this can
bring for the athlete later. What they are
doing is lowering the intensity in the phase of preparation. This means that they
have to increase the intensity of workouts after indoor competitions, with the
result that the athlete stays overloaded for outdoor competitions, and you
don`t need to be to be a specialist to see that the consequences will be poor
results .
Working on the basis of preparation and improvement of the
triple jump or long jump, is something that you as a coach can never
underestimate.
Also, working with this fundamental stage of development of
triple jump , will give the advantage to the athlete of developing each year, and of course increasing
his distance by 1 centimeter every year.
