  • A simple, easy-to-understand, and comprehensive lesson about the scientific principles and how-to tips for the most beautiful and complex of track and field events - the high jump! USA Track&Field Masters All-American high jumper Brad Kearns provides a step-by-step account of the approach, the takeoff, and the bending over the bar so you can put everything together for a new PR!
    This video has detailed, slow-motion breakdown of the technique of several of the greatest high jumpers in history, like Stefan Holm of Sweden ('04 Olympic gold; at 5'10", his PR of 2.40m/7'10" ties the highest over-head clearance in history!); Gianmarco Tamberi of Italy (2016 World Indoor Champion and PR of 2.39/7'10"); Mutaz Essa Barshim of Qatar (PR of 7'11"/2.43m is #2 in history); Derek Drouin of Canada ('16 Olympic gold; PR of 2.40m/7'10"); and Shaunté Lowe (American Record holder, '08 Olympic bronze; '12 World Indoor Champion and PR of 2.05m/6'8").
    Watch and learn from the great ones as each technique attribute and sequential positioning and movement are described in detail. This video will help you understand the physics and spatial awareness necessary to generate horizontal momentum with the straight run-up, build centrifugal force with a J-shaped curved approach, and then gracefully and powerfully transfer energy from the horizontal plane to the vertical plane, leveraging a property known as angular momentum. That's right, almost all of the work for a great clearance happens on the ground. With maximum rotational energy harnessed, you essentially slam on the brakes and get catapulted right over the bar. This is a great resource for fans of the event to learn what's happening in fast motion with the great champions jumping way over their heads, for young jumpers striving to learn the basics of the event, and for experienced jumpers looking for more detailed analysis and footage of the positionings and angles achieved by elite jumpers.

    Are you Jamies old coach? If so, I have been to dinner with you, Jamie, and other friends. This was in about 2000. If this is you (or isnt), I'm totally impressed that you can get over a bar. I tried 7 years ago and you would never know I was a good jumper back in the day.

    • @brad.kearns
      @brad.kearns  Рік тому

      Jamie who? I coached middle schoolers that's about it. Jamie Nieto was an Olympic jumper from Sacramento in 2004. NOT his coach ha ha! Yeah its hard to compete in high jump over the years, easy to get injured!

    '...the most beautiful and complex of all athletic events...' I'm with you on that. It's also the toughest mentally.
    By the way, if you're going to talk about the CoM advantages of the flop over the bar, you need to talk about the CoM advantages of the straddle take off. The point is that bar clearance is not very technique is not very important. The two techniques are about equally efficient and this was shown admirably well by Dr Jesus Dapena, who is a retired biomechanist and human movement specialist from the University of Illinois. Dr Dapena was an advisor to the US team and worked with people like 2011 World Champion Jesse Williams. The reason people use the flop universally these days is that it's easier to teach and learn and results come more quickly. I suspect that flop jumpers also suffer fewer injuries, though both are very hard on his and knees. As I found out.
    You can teach someone to be a moderately competent flop jumper in about six to eight weeks. To achieve the same with the straddle will generally take a couple of years. That said, if someone came to me and they could not master the flop for some reason and they had good hip and leg flexibility, I'd be happy to teach them to straddle.

    • @brad.kearns
      @brad.kearns  Рік тому +1

      Yes its fascinating to reflect on the now defunct straddle. One expert proposed that since the straddle record is ~7'8" 2.34m from 1978 that is reasonable to assume humans could improve 4" in 45 years and that we'd have an 8' / 2.45m straddle jump by now!! "easier to teach" that's a good reason. I like watching Willie Banks 60+ doing a three-step straddle approach and setting records!

      @thethirdman225 Рік тому

      @@brad.kearns The time taken from _ab initio_ to reasonably competent flop jumper is going to keep a lot more people in the game. Being easier to learn is a huge draw card. The straddle requires a lot more committment and time. Most don't want that, especially if they're seeing others getting results before they do. A lot of people misinterpret what I'm saying as "The straddle is better and we should all give up the flop". Plainly, I'm not saying this (and for the record, neither did you). I'm just saying that a lot of the advantages of the flop are countered by advantages in the straddle, particularly the takeoff. But it is harder to learn and I doubt if the skillset exists to teach it today. I doubt we'll see any world class jumpers using it again. But never is a long time.
      Going back to Vladimir Yashchenko, it's kind of distressing to realise that he jumped 2.35 as a 20 year old and suffered a horrendous knee injury shortly afterwards that ended his career. He died, aged 40, of alcoholism. I think we are entitled to wonder where he might have ended up. Maybe 2.38-2.40? We can only guess. It is a tragic story.

      No I am not a record holder. the age group records are amazing. for example the record in my age group 55-59 is about 6'7" held by German Carlo Thranhardt who is in the top-5 ranking all time high jumpers from his 7'11" clearance back in his prime as Olympic athlete
