@samuelshipley Working on our approach today after a power circuit. Striding in the beginning to gain ground and pick up speed, and then as we reach the middle of the run while maintaining speed, increase the turnover (run cycle) so we can transfer most of that horizontal energy into a vertical force. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Also, with my vaulters doing summer work outs for other sports, I have specified the workouts to gain power and strength. We don’t want to be working on too much hypertrophy because too much added weight may hurt the vault. The key is to gain strength and power, while staying the same size or being able to produce the same speed with gained muscle. For example, If the gained weight slows you down then it is not a positive adaptation. F = M x A. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Pole vaulting is a lovely sport because it is just a combination of geometry and physics. Follow the formulas and you will find success. #Polevault #Coaching #ThomasJohnson #Maryland #TrackandField #Shipness #Patriots #Approach #Turnover #Speed #Power #Specificity #PersonalTraining #Polevaulting #ExerciseScience #trackandfeild #Frederick #HighschoolSports #VaulterMagazine #UCSSpirit

I was so tired yesterday and bothered with that ''strange'' interview. And it is so good wake up and see the real interview and not some distorted words from a silly fan. Some shippers are so desperate for news of their couple... Anyway, our ship remain solid, but yours not so much...
