I can practice run throughs and jumps for my triple jump and be dead on. However, once I hit meets, I can be off by as much as a foot! It's driving me crazy. Any tips out there?|||if your mark is leading you to be faulting over the line-its because youre wearing lighter clothing and strides are a tad longer. just move it back 3 inches or so and thatll help.
if you mean youre ending mark where you land, then just remeber to extend out your legs and arms-thatll pick up a little extra.
the day before the meet dont TJ more than 5 times-otherwise youre body iwll be tired of it the next day you try it in meet. if those dont help then its all mental and you just stumble under the heat like some do.|||i'm assuming you mean your foot is either way over or before the jumping line. if soo
)go up to the line where you will jump from and put your jumping leg heel on the line facing away from the sand pit
2)running away from the sand pit (with the pace you will use when you're doing ur real jump)count each time your jumping leg hits the ground and at around 4-6 times (depends on how long you like to run b4 you jump) stop and mark the spot
3)when you start your run put your jumping foot with the toe on the mark you just made. this will make it so you don't have to worry about getting ur foot right on the line, it will automatically
be there. trust me it works,
otherwise if you're saying that your jump distance isn't as good at meets. then its just all in your head. just tell yourself its no big deal and don't get jumpy or excited. just stay relax and just od your beset
