Higher Toe Touches

Спорт

This athlete sent us some footage of himself working on his toe touch.
We gave him some pointers to fix common errors that many athletes face.
These exercises involve using jumps to fix jumps. Exercises are great tools that can help athletes tremendously, but when we use jumping to improve our jumps, it translates much quicker as it helps to increase coordination of movement.

    Not everyone is anatomically able to get hyper extended jumps. Also, it's impossible to guess how long it will take anyone to get there. Sorry there isn't a more specific answer, but keep working!

    Do you have any tips for not bending your knees in jumps?

    Ella Doucet Great question, go through standing high kicks to either side in front of a mirror and make sure that the legs are straight and the toes are pointed. Doing the split leg raises can also be a good indicator of whether the knees are straight or not.

    is there any way i could send in a video of my jumps and get corrections? i know i’ve always had trouble keeping my chest up but i feel like something else is going on too… it’s kind of frustrating when every day i get the same correction from my coach and she tells me to stare at the ceiling (which i already feel like i’m doing)

    I have hyperextended jumps on spring floor but can’t seem to get them anywhere else and I don’t understand the hip roll I always hear everyone say “roll your hips” but never explain how? And I can’t seem to keep my chest up?

  • @DrTravisOwens

    Some peole do not have the ability to roll the hips due to the shape of the hip socket. You can usually make the appearance of the jump cleaner by keeping your chest up but you mention you struggle there. I would focus on straddle leg raises with your back and butt against the wall and also work on standing kicks focusing on keeping the chest up the entire time. Then work on the diamond jump shown in the video and focus on keeping your chest up.
