  • Study on High Jumpers on the Word
    Ovidius University Annals, Series Physical Education and Sport / SCIENCE, MOVEMENT AND HEALTH Vol. XII, ISSUE 2 Supplement 2012, Romania The journal is indexed in: Ebsco, SPORTDiscus, INDEX COPERNICUS JOURNAL MASTER LIST, DOAJ DIRECTORY OF OPEN ACCES JOURNALS, Caby, Gale Cengace Learning STUDY ON HIGH JUMPERS ON THE WORD GHEORGHE DANIEL1 Abstract Purpose. This work has proposed that purpose, to separate the essential data for selection and training high performance athletes in the perspective of major international competition. Methods. As research methods I used the case study, observation and statistics. Results. For the final selection to the Olympics, to accede to one of the medals, the athlete’s performance should be over 2.30 m. If we have several athletes with special performances, we should focus primarily on those with a richer experience, with several international competitions, so a little older. Conclusions. In 2 of the 5 Olympics, the performance for the first place is equal to the average top, which confirms first hypothesis. The top average age is 24 years and 7 months which confirms the second hypothesis. The third hypothesis is confirmed with the observation that for the Olympics the performance is the supreme criterion, the height isn’t a decisive criterion (there are medalists with height below top average). The hypothesis of the athlete’s weight isn’t confirmed, recording an average of 77,36 kg. We only have significant correlation between athlete’s height and weight. Key words: athletes, performance, statistics. Introduction the essential data for selection and training high The present study is an analysis of the finalists performance athletes in the perspective of major from the last two Olympics and the first three of the international competition.

  • My Favorite Sport My Favorite Sport ----- HIGH JUMP
    My favorite sport My favorite sport ----- HIGH JUMP High jump is my favorite sport cause it is a challenging sport and it’s difficult to do it well. I think the pose of high jump is very elegant and beautiful, so I love this sport and I’m interested in learning high jump. History of high jump High jump were first popular in Scotland in the early 19th century, it incorporated to the first modern Olympics Games in 1896. High jump has undergone the most radical changes of technique. The Eastern Cut-off Western Roll and Straddle, they’re methods used by the athletes before. Nowdays, Fosbury Flop involves going over with the jumper's back to the bar and became possible with the introduction of landing beds in the early 1960s and popularised by the 1968 Olympic champion Dick Fosbury. What is high jump The high jump is a track and field event in which competitors must jump unaided over a horizontal bar placed at measured heights without dislodging it. How it works Athlete jump unaided and take off from one foot over a four-metre horizontal bar. They have to clear the greatest height without knocking down the bar. All athlete have three attempts per height, although they can elect to ‘pass’. If three consecutive failures at the same heights, the competitor will be knock out. If competitors are tied on the same height, the winner will have had the fewest failures at that height. Therefore, a jump-off will decide the winner. Do you know that Built up shoes were used by many top jumpers from1956 to1957, with soles of up to five centimetres.
