    LA ERA ISINBAYEVA Historia de 28 récords mundiales Por: Ángel Cruz Edición y Diseño by @deporcuba Email: [email protected] PRÓLOGO Por: Lilian Cid Escalona (@lizz19861) A los 15 años, la vida suele a dar muchas vueltas; por ello, ni siquiera Natalia Petrovna logró intuir que su primogénita, nacida el tres de junio de 1982 en la heroica ciudad rusa de Volgogrado, estaba destinada a ser alguien especial para el mundo. Lo recalco porque para las madres, los hijos son siempre especiales… Pero Yelena, al parecer, sabía que con esfuerzo podría llegar a cumplir aquella promesa: “Voy a ser la mejor del mundo y campeona olímpica”, le había dicho a su madre en una tarde de juegos en casa, años atrás. Su palabra, desde luego, peligró cuando con 15 años se quedó sin el sueño gimnástico por ser demasiado alta (1.74 metros). Entonces, Alexandr Lisovói (su instructor de gimnasia) tuvo la claridad de presentarle la chica a su amigo y entrenador de salto con pértiga, Evgeny Trofimov. Allí le hablaron por primera vez sobre Bubka, y contestó: “¿Y esa quién es?”… Pero de la mano de Trofimov, la talentosa discípula encontró en la “vara” una amiga y utilizó cada una de las bondades heredadas de sus 10 años inmersa en acrobacias gimnásticas para dominar su cuerpo en el aire, y volar. Seis meses después de aquel encuentro, la primogénita de Natalia y Gadzhi Gadzhiyevich Isinbayev, ganó su primer título en Moscú en los Juegos Internacionales Juveniles de 1998. Desde ese día, el éxito se convirtió en su palabra de orden y “Lena” resonó en el mundo mientras el salto con pértiga florecía gracias a su empeño.

  • Improvement of Peak Performance in the Pole Vault
    Improvement of Peak Performance in the Pole Vault Submitted to Strategies: A Journal for Sport and Physical Educators Introduction The issue of peak performance at the elite level of pole vaulting is many faceted involving physical, technical, and psychological components. The issue of peak performance, stated in the simplest terms, refers to the vaulter performing well under extreme pressure. Many subscribe to the general theory that under the pressure of championship competition one third of the field will not achieve the performance that brought them to the competition, one third of the field will equal the performance, and one third of the field will exceed the performance that they brought into the contest. The following are factors which are beneficial to achieving peak performances. Consistency Developing consistency on several levels is paramount to continued development and confidence under competitive pressure. Consistency in the coaching relationship, training and technical methodology, and training environment become increasingly important to maximize performance at the highest level. The pole vaulter’s peak performance years are generally between the ages of the early 20s to the early 30s due to the extreme technical and physical nature of the event. The preceding five to 10 years usually exhibit the formative development of constructing a consistent model of technique. The coach gains understanding of the athlete’s strengths and weaknesses both physically and emotionally during this period. This period of time is critical to allow development of understanding of what Vitaly Petrov describes as the “culture of movement” and allows for the introduction and indoctrination of the coaches technical model and terminology to the athlete.

  • Conheça As Vitórias, Derrotas E Superações De Thiago Braz Thiago Braz, Garoto Tímido Nascido Em Marília, Interior De
    Conheça as vitórias, derrotas e superações de Thiago Braz Thiago Braz, garoto tímido nascido em Marília, interior de São Paulo, transformou-se em ídolo nacional após a conquista do ouro e do recorde olímpico no salto com vara na Rio 2016. Para a maioria dos brasileiros e dos espectadores dos jogos Thiago, até então, era um desconhecido, mas a sua paixão pelo esporte e sua dedicação ao atletismo começou muito antes disso. Com dois anos Thiago foi abandonado pela mãe e criado pelos avós paternos que foram os responsáveis por sua criação. Sem o apoio deles e do tio, sua vida poderia ter sido muito diferente, mas não foi, tanto que hoje este é um assunto muito bem resolvido. “Eu já perdoei, afinal de contas, ela é minha mãe. Sei que tanto ela quanto meus avós têm participação fundamental na minha história, minha mãe me gerando e meus avós me criando”, conta. Antes do salto com vara Thiago se arriscou no basquete e percebeu que não tinha muito talento na categoria. O atletismo apareceu na vida dele aos 14 anos através do incentivo do tio, Fabiano Braz, que era atleta da modalidade Decatlo. Na época o garoto treinava e competia pelo Clube dos Bancários de Marília. Depois, seguiu para a cidade de Bragança Paulista e a partir daí iniciou uma trajetória de vitórias, derrotas e superações. Ganhou o Campeonato Brasileiro de Menores, o Campeonato Brasileiro Juvenil, o Campeonato Estadual de Menores e o Campeonato Estadual Juvenil. Em 2009, participou de sua primeira competição internacional e conquistou o bronze no Campeonato Sul-Americano Juvenil.
