Another day of camp with videos on the link in my last post.

Mike I could only view the Tim Mack drill because they were all the same link. So could you find the actual links for the Dave Butler stuff. Also what did you see in my regular jumps? Have I improved from last week?

Okay. Had a pretty successful day at camp yesterday. I spent about an hour and a half just doing drills and only took 5 full jumps. The main issues I was trying to address yesterday was my wrist and my bent over run. I think I gradually got better at those two things which are evident in my jumps. I...

Hey quick question. While I'm waiting for my DVD to ship could someone explain to me what ostriches and 20/20's are? I've never heard of them.

If you have a Facebook account go to G-Force Vault Club and request to join. Thanks for the invite anyways, but I don't have a Facebook account for now, maybe after I get accepted into college I will (just so colleges can't research me in any possible negative way). The new link also worked, so I c...

Mike do you have another link with the pyramid drills. I went to open it and it said that the content is unavailable. And no I did not skip all you wrote, I read all of it. I also watched a lot of Bubka and saw how my takeoff is. I altered my takeoff to make it look like my teammate's (video here ht...

. My question is capable of what? Bending a pole or jumping high? I am capable of bending a pole. Jumping high, I am still working on. I am also pretty sure that is why my takeoff isn't that good most of the time. Correct? Here again is where you need to compare against a video of an elite vaulter ...

I live in Pennsylvania. The camp I am going to isn't really structured. The coach there just said she had the camp so we could jump during the summer. And I really am trying to get better at everything. I do the most drills out of everyone whether it is in this camp or before a meet. Everyone says I...

Another day down of camp. New videos were uploaded to the summer camp link in my first post. I really tried to focus on two things: 1. Pushing instead of Pulling and 2. Standing up straight when I run. Instead, focus on keeping the hands high throughout the vault, and swing deep into the pit. Get de...

Okay. From what I read on that page. I know in my mind what to do, now I just have to execute. I will post more videos after camp tomorrow. Any suggestions for drills on how to push farther into the pit. I'm guessing just simple ones like one handed and two handed drills?

So why in the world are you concerned with rowing your hands? It's not correct, so stop trying to do it. First off I want to thank you for actively trying to help me. Second, are telling me not to row at all or just not with my hands? Is there a difference? My coach always just told me that I need ...

Yes, I understand that I am not supposed to be rowing with my hands, but I cannot row. I can row and turn on a rope and in a harness, but cannot with my actual vault. So what is preventing me from doing that. I have fixed my plant a lot, but it did not seem to help. I'm thinking about holding higher...
