I realised that I do tend to look down when doing long jump thanks for the tip hopefully I can correct it for my meet

[@OutperformOfficial]

You can do it!

[@_Tem]

When I was 14yo(9th grade) my P.E. teacher wanted me to do long jump and I managed to do 5.30meter at peak but with a poor form. I'm now 16 and since the pandemic there weren't any competition where I'm at and I didn't get to practice much in my jumps after 2 years of not jumping we got to do a lesson of long jump practice and first jump I did 4.30 and on the 2nd 4.60 and finished with a 3rd jump of 4.95, I hope I'll manage to improve because my teacher wants me to participate in future track & field competition and this video really helped thanks!

[@OutperformOfficial]

Great to hear, keep at it!

[@emerson8096]

I watched this last night, scared for my meet today. I was getting 13s so far this season when my PR is 15. (I’m a ninth grade female) I was wondering what I was fully doing wrong, THIS VIDEO WAS SO HELPFUL. I literally thought about this video all day and at the meet! I fixed my starting posture, made sure I was balanced, aligned my hips properly, got my knees higher, extended longer, AND (these two things were the main fixtures) made sure to scoot my butt to my feet instead of landing with my feet and I kept my head up!! last meet I got 13 ft 3 in and today I got 13 ft 10 in, 13 11 in, and 14 ft 5 in!! Thank you so much for this video, I genuinely appreciate you so much. I forgot to lift my head until the last one, when my coach reminded me. Crazy how much it made a difference! THANK YOU AGAIN!!! ❤❤

[@OutperformOfficial]

Absolutely stellar progress! Your dedication to refining your technique and focusing on elements like your starting posture and alignment is outstanding, especially for your age. Thank you for sharing your success; it’s incredibly rewarding to hear how the video helped you achieve new personal bests. Keep putting in the hard work and let us know how it goes. Best of luck!

[@mayapapaya4374]

Advice in list (mainy for myself lol) Don't look down; head and chest up Once you reach your maximum height, bring your knees to your chest (make sure to sti keep your chest up tho) and bring your toes out, hands forward and take a step like you are puling your pants up(if this doesn't make sense, go to 2:07 for the position) Ideal landing is on your butt. As you come down from extension bring your heels into the pit and collapse your butt into your feet DON'T DROP FEET

[@OutperformOfficial]

Awesome!

[@madewithskyler7098]

This is awesome! I really enjoy long jump. My best is only 14 feet, but I really think this video helped! Thank you 🙏

I had a meet a bit ago and was put on long jump by my coach. I’m telling you I legit had like only 2 practices worth of training so I was absolutely shitting my pants. I got there, I was embarrassed as hell, because I was the only one who didn’t really know what he was doing, I didn’t know where to start from so my coach put me to run and we got a scuffed measurement. It was time and I was the 3rd jumper. No experience and no expectations, gave it all I had. Ended up getting 1st with a lucky jump of 6.01m (19 3/4ft) 😭. It was def lucky, but this year I’ll prove it wasn’t I swear! LETS KEEP GRINDING! 🔥

[@stuckbetweenfandoms5138]

7th grade, this is my first time doing long jump and the first time i've done school sports in years. my record is 9’8 (bad i know but i'm just starting out and i'm working on it).

Hey thank you very much for the info. When i landed 4.6 m my teacher said something is wrong he cant jump this high with his teddy bear like body. I felt offended but brushed it off now i wanna show him that i can land 4.6 m everytime and not just once. Because after that jump i landed 3m and then he said that seems right.

You wanna use the forward momentum by planting your feet I. The landing and letting your forward momentum to get your bum to your feet then obviously lean to the side so you are getting maximum distance... higher means further

[@arul2471]

Very useful

[@mpasdele]

Recently i landed my first jump on my butt. Though the ground on the pit was very hard and i felt my tailbone to ache and now I cant sit properly. I saw in the video that the athletes were landing on the cheeks not directly on their butt. Did i do something wrong or is this pain normal?

[@OutperformOfficial]

That is not normal, you should not be landing on your tailbone. Your legs and sand should absorb most of the impact. Pain is an indicator that something is wrong, please don't ignore it. Try doing the "hop hop land" drill to get comfortable with pain free landing.

Sounds like you've got some potential, developing your landing will definitely help you to improve your distance, keep at it!

[@moustafaibnal-dawiyah9977]

So good

[@David-km2ie]

From a perspective of conservation of angular momentum I dont see the difference between knees to chest or chest to knees. I do think forward rotation is mainly created at takeoff

[@OutperformOfficial]

If you bring your chest to your knees you are changing your torso angle and causing further forward rotation which will lead to a shorter jump. It would be similar to imitating a front flip which we don't want in the long jump.

[@Jyotirmayeedas0901]

Good jump 👍👍
