Think your in shape? How do you pair up with the rest of us?

A forum to discuss overall training techniques, nutrition, injuries, etc. Discussion of actual pole vault technique should go in the Technique forum.

Vaulter870, I have been reading results from all over the state and still haven't heard anything about you. No one from Novi last year was jumping anything high. I hope you do jump up there like you said, cuz Michigan vaulters need to be represented well... Good luck, and i hope you jump as high as you say you can :yes:

no but i know him he is kinda lazy and the total opposite of me. I am Chris Machisak if you wanted to know. I dont know if Coleman is even going to be jumping as well as last year (11'6") cause he dosnt want to work out at all and isnt really taking all of the oppertunities to vault,lift,and train like i do.Oh well it gives me something to do trying to get him shape. ;)

i was a lot stronger when i was in high school then I am now. I still lift pretty hard, but I guess my job on the team is to pole vault, not squat. I don't have a problem at all with backing off 20 pounds in order to do it smoother with a better range of motion. So of these maxes are huge, so congrats on that, but Tim Mack and I have the same 1RM for squat but he is jumping 4 feet higher...
