Jumps covers the four track and field jumping events. Charles Craig shows you how to produce maximum power and optimal trajectory to attain the greatest distance in the long and triple jumps. Craig also teaches techniques for helping athletes achieve their ultimate height in the high jump. Randy Miller then shows how athletes can improve their pole vaulting techniques to become proficient in all phases of the jump. These two coaches give you proven drills and exercises for

- improving the essential elements of the long jump;
- developing balance, coordination, and power in the triple jump;
- perfecting the approach, take-off, and flight phases of the high jump; and
- mastering all elements of the pole vault-plant, take-off, swing, turn, and bar clearance.

Incorporate them into your practices to develop the excellent form, strength, speed, and confidence jumpers need to perform winning jumps.
