Jumps over hurdles

  • Age U14 - U19
  • Training Set Main point
  • Number of Players 1 - 5 players

Setup

A starting cone and behind it 3-8 hurdles are built in a row are placed on the field. The players line up one behind the other at the starting cone. No more than 5-8 players per station.

Procedure

The player makes two-leg jumps over the hurdles. There is only ground contact between the hurdles. Alternative: one-leg jumps alternately or with the same leg.

Tip

The palms are open (makes a difference of 3/100 seconds in a sprinter). - You walk on the footpads and not on your whole foot or heel. - Fast, short, fluid movements. - Short ground contact time. - With a powerful, two-legged jump, the knees are slightly bent. The arms are bent and go into the backward movement. The upper body is upright. Land on the footpads. - The one-leg jump serves to develop the push-off force (increase of the maximum and explosive force with a limited push-off time), i.e. the speed of stepping. Jump forward from the pad of the right foot and land with the same foot. Brief contact with the ground with an explosive sprint. The left foot touches down and moves forward. - If the jumps are carried out in isolation, it is only about jumping as high as possible. Both arms are used to gain momentum. This jumping technique is also called counter movement. - 1 cone, 3 hurdle (s)
