I am going to test 3 people at the high jump. I will test them on the 4 main stages of the high jump, which are the J shape approach run, the take off, the flight and the landing. I will test them at the beginning before I have trained them and at the end after I have trained them. However because each person is at a different standard and can do different parts of the jump better than others for example if Alex is good at the approach but bad at the flight he will need to be trained more for the flight than the approach so obviously I will have to devise a separate training program for each person. I have also created a checklist for each person at the beginning and end, which I will tick if they have achieved it.

Tests

The height of jump- I will test them on how high they can jump before and after training. To improve the heights of jump do all exercises.

The approach run – I will be teaching them the J approach. I will be testing them on their speed in to the jump and the angle that they come in to the bar. The best training to improve these are the sprinting and the 3 steps exercises  

The take off - I will be testing them on the plant of their foot, the drive of their leg and on the height that they get in the air. The best exercises to improve the take off are the 3 steps and the standing jump.

The flight - I will be testing them on the technique through out the flight for example if they bend there back over the bar and flick there legs over correctly. The best exercises for the flight are the 3 steps and the standing jump.

The landing - this is very important that they get this right because it could be very dangerous if the land on the high on there neck. I will test them on how they land for example do they land on the flat part of there back and is the landing under control. The exercises that will help improve the landing are the 3 steps and the standing jump.

 

 

Exercises

The 3 strides are used to concentrate on the final part of the J approach, the take off, the flight and the landing. They need to start off 3 strides away from the take off point at a 45-degree angle. A session for this exercise will be 30minutes long and they will just practice the jump from 3 strides away they will start off with the bar low and try and jump as high as they can. They will roughly do 30 jumps per session

The standing jump is to prefect the power into the flight stage, the arch of the back, landing and how to move your arms and hips through the flight stage. The higher you have to jump the further you need to take off    from the mat. A session for this exercise will be 30minutes long and they will just practice the jump from standing and they will start off with the bar low and try and jump as high as they can. They will roughly do 30 jumps per session
