LONG JUMP: HOW TO COACH THE HITCK-KICK
by John Shepherd
Description
This course comprises of a video which explain how to coach the hitch kick.
We see Coach Shepherd working with a jumper in real-time and we see his progressions and see and in some instances hear his interaction with the jumper - Andrew (17 at time of making video).
Andrew is from the US and has a best 100m of 10.70sec and a long jump of 7.31m. He was a hang jumper - and this technique was not idea for him. Why? Andrew was not holding his take-off nor making the most of his speed. His take-off set-up on the three steps prior to taking off was not optimal and his incorrect positioning was taking away from jump distance. In the video (which focssess one session) you will see pretty significant changes being made as we transfer to a hitch-kick..
The video provides you with:
Step by step progressions
Drill descriptions
The rationale for doing certain drills and movements
The sequencing of the key positions for the hitch-kick
Hitch-kick variations and nuances
In short you will be able to see and understand much of the process needed to teach the hitch-kick.
Watch the video, pick up coaching tips and ideas and session structure.
