Indoors Upon Us

[uconnvaulta]

It is now getting close and i know i cant wait for my first indoor meet. Is everyone ready for this indoor season, has everyone been training harder this year, been running faster, and are you going to jump higher this season.
Where is everyone looking forward to compete.

I know that this year i have lost ten pounds, gotten so much faster. raised all my maxes by atleast 20 pounds in each lift. and still havent gotten back to my full run but im poppin over some big bars ( you will have to wait and see the heights)

My season starts Jan 7th at a home meet for me, How bout anyone else?

Dec. 10th at mankato, mn
some of my vaulters are kindof ready, some are not..
i got a freshman that last year in HS she was on a 13' 130 and often gettin' her butt kicked by it, now she's rollin' over a 13'7" 155 and we're gonna need to buy some bigger poles.. she's gonna be scarey.. who knows what kids are gonna do in early dec..
all in all, i'm stoked for the season

houston on jan ~14th? then houston the next week, then it's off to New Mexico to get the hept. qualifier out of the way...

ANYONE JUMPED AT NEW MEXICO?? i hear they have ok facilities, but you never know.

I just switched back to pushing the pole. I think I need a few more practices until I am ready for a meet. I might jump unattached at Carbondale if Daniel goes, but I am not eligible until January anyway.

First year in the Big East Conference......I am looking for big things......a lot of places there this year may come down to misses. must be a first attempt jumper

[uconnvaulta]

it is def going to be close in the big east among the top guys and i def believe it will come down to misses and first attempts at the big meets

my preason has been interesting to say the least..... first meet is in about 9 days, but im not going full run. but come mid january... we shall see how this new training philosophy is paying off. Its always risky changing coaches, and trying to systems, but, i figure im going for broke. Last year gotta just go for it. i will say this, from 6 lefts i used a 5.00m 195 holding about 15'5 (although i was a bit shallow)

[uconnvaulta]

yeah i have pretty much taken the same route this pre season
i havent gotten back to a full run yet and am holding at like 15' 2" from 5 and 6 lefts my first meet is december 9th its a inter squad meet and i wont be on full run for that as well , but hopefully this will pay off come jan and feb and march

Brian, am I reading this right, that you have changed coaches? Maybe I misunderstood your statement

same technical coach

bob phillips still handles all of my vaulting, gymnastics, and technical work
lawrence johson (of Southern Illinois, not PV LoJO) has handled all of my running workouts, and they have been intense to say the least
and I have done some research and have started writing my lifting workouts.
