Long Jump Technique | Distance Killers (& How To Avoid Them)

Available now! outperformsports.com/product/...
This video addresses one of the most common mistakes in long jumping at the board and how to correct it. Reaching kills the speed that you built up on the runway, reduces knee drive, shortens the distance of your jump and on top of all of that can lead to serious injury.
Coach Ryan Bailey of CSU provides insight on the negative aspects of reaching and how it makes having a good drive knee almost impossible. Olympian Janay Deloach Soukup shares how she overcame her issue with reaching and the distance she gained as a result.

This video is too underrated.

[@MathMaster44]

thank you so much for this vid because my coach has been telling me that i was overstriding at the end and i didnt know how to stop it and i have a state track meet in 1 wk so im going to try that at my last practice

[@OutperformOfficial]

That is great to hear. Fixing over-striding at the board will have a huge impact on your performance and definitely worth working on. Good luck at your meet-trust your training and you’ll do great!

Any drills on holding the knee drive? When I attempt to hold my knee on a jump I think I break into a cycle before I should be.

[@OutperformOfficial]

Check out this video we just posted for knee drive, if you develop the strength in the hip flexors etc. it will help you hold the knee drive longer th-cam.com/video/nquHlhAD-qs/w-d-xo.html if you really want to develop your jump check out this course, coach Baily shares a ton of great drills th-cam.com/video/pSRYCX-zPzI/w-d-xo.html

[@cwhite3123]

What were box dimensions?

[@maheshvemula3973]

your valuable informations improve my high jamp...

[@iizist722]

Its long jump though

[@RachJones915]

Great video! The school I’m coaching at doesn’t have a box. Any alternative you suggest?

[@OutperformOfficial]

Thanks! Good question, unfortunately for these drills I can't think of a good alternative. If something comes to mind I'll let you know.

[@aubreydelaney]

Hey! I’ve heard of some schools using small hurdles (only a few inches tall) but the last few are closer together, forcing you to take quicker steps at the end.

[@AB-do9qz]

Hai

[@Stupidbitch69]

THANK YOU FOR THIS!! I just started track and I'm doing long jump so I'm just sitting here taking notes on how to fix my jump, because with my last jump I injured my tail bone.

[@OutperformOfficial]

You're very welcome! Check out our video on proper landing technique, should help so you won't land on your tail bone. Best of luck this season!

[@swabia1554]

What is good video resolution plus frames per socond setting for these high quality slo mos? Asking for a friend 😁

[@OutperformOfficial]

This was shot at 240fps at 1920 x 1080 on a Red Dragon. Now most phones can do 240.

[@caidenlee8097]

[@sudda3645]

I'm 4.2 I can ege 13 Sri lanka

[@jonesboy9191]

Where do you get those boxes?

[@OutperformOfficial]

check out epic sports or any place that sells gill boxes or similar

[@celineamparo1187]

What’s the width and length of the box?

[@keithlakeman5337]

Celine Amparo nothing its just a big pit. Would you want to be a jumper who jumps 20ft in a 15ft pit. It gives less of a chance of an accident happening

[@celineamparo1187]

Keith Lakeman I was talking about the plywood

[@beneastman9252]

Lol

[@LearningLife9]

I didn't understand the video...Can anyone explain what they are saying...

[@kiyorashi4205]

Sorry I don't know how to paraphrase stuff to other people in a proper way

[@monsieurLDN]

You should put your foot under your hips instead of trying to "reach" for a longer step by extending your leg

[@tara8955]

I can only make it half way

[@irender7632]

Ya

[@milankalita8199]
