6-21-2012 Pole Vault Practice(RTB)

Today I was just feeling tired. I have not been on a very good sleep cycle now that school is out. I hope to get back on track with that next week. As for my vaulting, I think my run and take-off was not as consistent as it usually is, but I feel like my top end improved as far as wrapping the pole and staying with it on top.

                                                                                   

5-31-2012 Pole Vault Practice(RTB)

I was just working on getting quick at take off and jumping up at take-off. I kind of fell away from that on a few jumps and then realized that towards the end of practice and started working on it again.

5-16-2012 Pole Vault Practice(RTB)

Today's practice went well. I just did distance vaults from my 4 stride really trying to hit positions. Mainly trying to swinging to my knees. I had a really good straight pole drill at the beginning(POP UP DRILL). I really swung straight bodied for the most part and dropped my shoulders back. I think it is the best drill I have done in awhile if not the best drill. I think that things are coming along and that I just cant get ahead of myself. I also set up rings in my back yard and I really think they will help me with my swing.

                                                                             

4/21/2012 Oregon Relays(RTB)

The meet went pretty good considering it was my second day from an eight stride and my first meet from an eight stride in 4 years! I see things that I really need to work on, but that is a good thing. I have had a hurt shoulder for the past week and a half and am taking it easy on it to try and recover it as quickly as possible. I think that it is just really tight and maybe pinching a nerve or something. I went to acupuncture on Wednesday and it seemed to help a lot. I have another appointment scheduled for this upcoming Wednesday. I will keep everyone posted.
