Note: The last ground contact in the position (f) with clearly
imperfect extension of the knee and hip (see also biomechanical analysis of the sprinters, p. 53-58. For a short contact time
(a - f) is developed great power (high power).
Important! Movement = The rotation of the hip joint must be clearly
acelererad in each ground phase - from the touchdown until leaving the
ground (take off). A smooth rotation of the hip is often sign of a tense
impotent running with a shorter step and with an unnatural frequence.

The initial contact with the runway makes the the edge of
the ball of the foot (Fig. 104C). then is pressed the whole
ball of the foot into the runway and then the heel (Fig.102
-104). Elastic energy, stretch reflex and muscle power then
extends the ankle, which helps boost the power. This power
is also affected by will*), with the exception of the ankles
extension. Foot/ lower leg (Fig.104, a-c) can be likened to a
biased elastic steel strip, which at the touchdown is bent and
clamped together followed of a catapult effect.

The sprinter / Jumper creates among other things, increase in the external lever (see page 22) and higher CG
position by that left shoulder is lifted higher when the
right foot is landing in the ground and the opposite relationship right shoulder and left foot (see also fig.103, p.
47). Furthermore the pelvic posture is important for the
same reason (see below). Generally, you have to strive
for a tall posture to create a long lever, or if we want to
use the image of a rod with a high center of gravity.

it as a simple mechanical machine it will feature:
The entire leg, which is forming a lever with the
hips as the pivot axis, is rotated (rotated) back

Carl Lewis
Carl Lewis
It has always existed in the U.S. Long jumpers, who used
their pronounced sprinter speed with technology, which
completely differs from the high long jump. Such was
Carl Lewis (Fig. 142). It is more talk about a jump in
direction outwards than upwards. In take off phase the
last approach steps (see Figure 137) is a rhythm changing, which gives a first hint of a lifting the last step
approach. CL then naturally strike the whole foot, with a
very short first heel contact, in the board. The jump leg is
slightly bent with pre tension muscularity (actively grab
motion). From position (a2) the explosiv take off occur
in a ascending movement up - outwards, as running from
the board. The lead leg swings up and is slowed down
until the thigh are horizontal. The long deep penultimate
step with a lift in the last step slows you down, but resulting in a less load on the jump leg. This can fit sprinter
runners which does not have the pronounced jump
strength. The high speed before penultimate step compensates well the slow down, so that the speed, though flat
take off angle, admits Carl Lewis jumping near 9m.

Jump foot is put down at the board with a backward gripping movement. Touchdown is done
with the whole ball of the foot, but with an initial
brief heel contact. Legs and seat muscles are
preloaded for eccentric work during the so called
amortisation phase a0-a2 during which springy
rod force rotating torso forward upwards accompanied the explosive push off b2-d2 (compare
drive phase a1-d1). An intresting techniques
detail is his right arm and shoulder is kept back
in a low position at touchdown. It then occurs an
elastic stretch of the hip side (which immediately
is stretched, as a rubber strap (Authers talks with
Valeri Bunin at an international training course in the long jump -94, a
secret behind the Russian-length and triple- jumpers)
