  • The Evolution of High Jumping Technique: Biomechanical Analysis
    IS8S 2002. Caceres - Extremadura - Spain 3 THE EVOLUTION OF HIGH JUMPING TECHNIQUE: BIOMECHANICAL ANALYSIS Jesus Dapena Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana, USA Over the years, high jumping technique has improved through changes in the run-up, the takeoff and the bar clearance. The straddle technique used a fast run-up and strong free limb actions during the takeoff to increase the generation of lift. The production of the angular momentum needed for the bar clearance in the Fosbury-flop technique (which replaced the straddle) is in conflict with the use of strong free limb actions during the takeoff. Fosbury-flop high jumpers compensate by using a faster run-up. Some athletes are able to generate more lift with the faster run-up and weaker free limb actions of the Fosbury-flop, while others can generate more lift with the slower run-up but stronger free limb actions of the straddle. Therefore, both techniques should be in use today. However, the straddle has disappeared, because the Fosbury-flop is much easier to learn. KEY WORDS: biomechanics, high jump, history, straddle, fosbury-flop INTRODUCTION: There was no high jumping event in the ancient Greek Olympic Games. This sport event seems to have its origin with the Celts (Tailteann Games). But modern high jumping began in Germany in the late 18th century. It started as a physical education activity for children (Fi~ure 1). It developed into a competitive sport in England in the 19t century, and soon afterward spread to Canada and to the United States. Mechanical considerations: To clear a high jump bar, it is necessary to drive the center of mass (c.m.) of the athlete to the largest height possible.

  • Lesson Plans Introduction the Following Section Provides Twenty-Seven Ready-To-Implement Lesson Plans for Teachers
    Lesson Plans Introduction The following section provides twenty-seven ready-to-implement lesson plans for teachers. The section is divided into four smaller sub-sections. • Early Stage 1 (5 year olds) • Stage 1 (6/7 year olds) • Stage 2 (8/9 year olds) • Stage 3 (10 years and LAANSWabove) ASAP Level 3 Each sub-section contains lesson plans suitable for children in these age groups. The lesson plans assume classes of up to thirty students and a time limit of 30-45 minutes, however a teacher can adapt the ideas to suit their particular circumstances. Each lesson plan generally follows the same format, being: Aim; Equipment; Warm Up; Skill Development; Games. In relevant places, topics such as safety aspects and various hints that will help the teacher organise and conduct a successful lesson are included. The lesson plans at times assume prior learning, ie. that the children have participated in the skill development activities contained in preceding lessons designed for the earlier levels. The activities featured in the lesson plans are based on fun, skill development, maximum group participation and a sound, logical progression. The lesson plans form the foundation of a class athletics unit. 3 29 Early Stage 1 Lesson Plans • Running - Lesson 1 - Lesson 2 • Jumping - Lesson 1 - LessonLAANSW 2 ASAP Level 3 • Throwing - Lesson 1 - Lesson 2 30 Early Stage 1 Running Lesson Plan Lesson 1 Introduction to basic running technique Introduction to relays Ground markers x 30 Relay batons x 5 Warm Up 1.

  • MECHANICS of the POLE VAULT Mechanical Bases of Effective Pole Vaulting Technique
    MECHANICS OF THE POLE VAULT Mechanical bases of effective pole vaulting technique Peter M. McGinnis, Ph.D. Department of Kinesiology • SUNY College at Cortland P.O. Box 2000 • Cortland • NY • 13045 email: [email protected] U.S.A. Track and Field 2007 National Podium Education Project December 13-15 • Las Vegas, Nevada T H E V A U L T E R 1. TALL AND LEAN. Elite vaulters are generally tall. Taller athletes have an advantage in the pole vault, especially at the pole strike. A taller athlete usually has a higher reach, and an athlete with a higher reach can strike the pole at a higher angle than a shorter athlete with a lower reach. Perhaps this tip should be entitled "Have a high reach height." Most elite male pole vaulters stand more than 6'0" tall. American record holder Jeff Hartwig is 6' 3". Olympic champion Tim Mack is 6' 2". American record holder Jenn Stuczynski is 6' 0". World record holder Yelena Isinbayeva is 5' 8 ½". There are exceptions, of course - Scott Huffman, Greg Duplantis, Svetlana Feofanova for example. Elite vaulters are lean. There are no exceptions to this rule. 2. FAST. Excellent sprinting ability is necessary for success in the pole vault. During the last steps of their approach runs elite male vaulters reach speeds in excess of 9.5 m/s (29.5 ft/s) while elite female vaulters reach speeds in excess of 8.2 m/s (26.9 m/s). Not all fast vaulters are elite vaulters, but all elite vaulters are fast.
