jaret I just wanted to thank you again for all the videos you have made about track and field. I am now officially done with high school athletics and can say I reached my goal of going to States. at States I wasn't really feeling the race , (i had gotten 2 hours of sleep due to prom the night brfore, I didn't get to do any warm up over hurdles, and it was 90 degrees) but overall I think I defiantly will continue hurdling in college.again thanks for all your effort 👍☺
you're very welcome man. Happy to be a part of your track journey. Hope you continue to run and congrats on making it state! Stay tuned for more videos :)
Jaret, you kill these videos on the track.....KEEP MAKING THEM ! ((thumbsup)) You are reaching folks that are trying to better themselves on the track and making a difference !
+Kevin Clements Thanks man, I really appreciate that. I've always had a natural ability when it came to not only running track but helping others on the track as well so it feels great to be able to share this information with others who love the sport.
Hey I am a 400m, 200m, and 100m runner my fastest times were 53 for the 400 , 24 for the 200, and 11.7 for the 100. I want to qualify for Junior Olympics this year and most of these kids are running 50 flat. How can I cut down a few seconds on my sprints. By the way I am 14.
+Dewayne Martin Doing what I talk about in my youtube videos is a great way to start. Having a solid race plan, doing the correct training, working out to get stronger in the gym etc. It just takes hard work, dedication and time.
The thing about my stamina is it's temporary. What I mean by this is I can push myself for the first 280m but after that it's will power and I still win. However if I don't give much effort in the long stretch I can't push myself at the end.. That's why my coach calls me a sprinter hurdler, can only sprint my hurdles.
Yeah I'm the same, when I run 300 meter hurdles I can't do well at all unless I start off strong, I think it's because you can't really accelerate again, so you kinda just have to maintain that speed with will power at the end. I use my momentum to get over the hurdle efficiently, and I don't care much about where my steps land because I go over with either lead leg. It's the reason I'm not a great 100m hurdler, because I don't get space to really get the speed in between the hurdles, hopefully will become better when I move up to 110m hurdles because I'll have more space between hurdles
IKR and those last 100m stretch is what kills a lot of us since we got nothing at the end but will power. But like you said hurdles is all about momentum without it your going to come in last place
Taijean Moodie the worst is the homestraight when its cold. i ran the 300mH in 5 degree celsius weather this year, and the homestraight completely killed me because my legs got even tighter than they usually do, theres that thing about Michael Johnson's push pace position pray, and i literally was praying at the last 75 meters. worst thing about track in Canada tbh
+R4V3-1N BF Gameplays Its funny because at the time I didn't really think it was very impressive but now looking back and when I try to run the hurdles to demo workouts for you guys I realize how ridiculous it was. haha
+Jaret Campisi yeah i feel like that about my pr everytime I'm out of shape lol like "did i really run that"? My pr is a 52 for the 4, so a 50-49 with hurdles is just nuts
+R4V3-1N BF Gameplays haha yeah even when I ran my PR's I was always tired afterwards...that's just the nature of track and field...you get in better shape and you just run faster so it still hurts just as much. haha
Thanks for your help man! I'm running my first 400H race ever at a competitive college meet at Hayward Field in Oregon. I have run the 400 and 800 but my only hurdles experience is the steeple, which I've run twice ever
@@JaretCampisi Ok my race was pretty rough but I will definitely take advantage of some of your workout ideas to improve my form. That's my biggest barrier to reaching my potential (pun intended)
Can you do a video that breaks down hurdle form? I'm a 400 hurdler, and my weakest part is my form, my best is only a 58.3 but I've run flat 400's in 50.5, I don't think there should be that large of a gap, I have the endurance for the hurdles, my technique is just awful, stuttering, jumping over the hurdles instead of gliding, it looks like each time I come off the hurdle I land too hard and come to a full stop, and my body is too erect when I hurdle (I don't have a good forward lean). Im a huge fan, thanks man!
+Vasu Joshi For sure, I've got a bunch of other hurdle videos on my channel if you head over and check out the "Track and Field" playlist you'll see a few of them. I'd start with the "Advanced Hurdle Drills and Techniques" video to explain how to hurdle and show some drills. After that its just a matter of practicing it over and over again. Spend some time jogging over the hurdle at an easy pace until you can take it in stride into and coming off the hurdle and then slowly increase your speed.
im in highschool and our boys team only has two coaches and its hard for them to individually work with everyone and there specific event, finding your youtube videos really helped because its like having a coach there to teach hurdle drills/techniques/race plans, keep up the good work and quality videos, you know your stuff!
+Joshua Right on, yeah thats very common with track since there are often a lot of athletes and not a lot of coaches. That combined with the fact that the sport is very misunderstood in general creates a situation where there are a lot of athletes and coaches who don't understand how to run or coach so I figured it would be good to shed some light on the sport for you guys. Happy to know they are helping. Lots more coming!
I just found your channel off Instagram. I live in SB too, I'm a wrestler at DP. your content is quality man, truly. Maybe you could come out with an anaerobic conditioning video in the future?
Right on man happy to hear that! Honestly any of these interval workouts are going to work the anaerobic system so you can try out any of these. Basically the shorter your rest and the longer the distance the more anaerobic they become. I'll def be doing more workouts in the future so stay tuned.
I got 51.14 flat . I got told if i sort my hurdle technique and strides out il get 4 seconds slower so 55.14 which is quite good . Have you got any more drills for this ?
shimon bain yes i run the 400 hurdles and im 16 in the 10th grade and i run around a 1:04 as my pr i switch legs depending on how long my strides are it just depends on if its comfortable for him it is for me and it helps me run faster
I couldnt help to notis that the guy with the red shirt does not get his follow leg over the hurdle and instead gets it over next to. It is something that i have thought would be an easy way to go a little bit faster. Have you ever done that and is it sheeting?
My son is 15 400m/800m runner 52.62 2.13. He gain lots of muscle mass so he dropped the 800m and picked up the 400mh which became his favourite. How can he gain more dexterity and become a more fluid runner?
its not one method work for all you have to find what works for you if you try his method you maybe end up under performing for me i start slow and when i rach the 300m mark i start to switch gears gradually getting faster and i always have some in the tank for a late charge like this guy im still a junior and im doing very good going pro when i go college
I don't do Hurdles but I just want to know what times is should be hitting in the 100,200,400. I'm a sophomore in high school and it's my 1st year of track.
hey Jaret i just wanted to say your video is awesome and i am a hurdler who is competing to try and make the olympic trials and open meets. could really use some advice if you ever have time. thanks in advance 😊😊
Hey, so i started running track in 10th grade and i got my hurdle time to 59 flat my first year. My junior year ( second year of track) i got my hurdle time down to a 53.44. Im about to finish up my second semester at college and im still hard stuck 53.44 , any tips?
how. i am so slow when running and i don’t know why, i stutter step a lot too and the second curve is when i am basically doing a light light jog. i don’t know what to do anymore lol
I'm new to the event . I run a 50 in the 400 and a 22 in the 200 . I want advice to getting familiarize to getting over the 400mh height nice and smooth
RajinFlash65 just gotta work on your form and technique and get your steps down. I've got a few hurdle videos on my channel that would all be helpful for you 👍
What would u say is the best thing to do to get used to the 400mh height . Like I have the speed and everything I'm just not used going over the 400mh height yet . Any advice ?
where I'm from it's: 100mH grade 9: 33 inch 100mH grade 10: 36 inch 110mH 11+12: 36 inch 300mH grade 9: 33 inch 300mH grade 10: 33 inch 400mH grade 11+12: 36 inch so the height and distance both increase from sophomore to senior from 300mH to 400mH
I run the 400 hurdles in college right now but having trouble with getting into a rhythm and counting my steps. Do you count the lead leg that touches down over the hurdle as step #1 or the trail leg as the first step when you count your 15 steps between each hurdle? Also, for collegiate women, about how many steps between each hurdle would you say would be the correct amount? 17?
+Kenzie Bollinger The trail leg is step number 1. Don't worry about how many steps people are "supposed" to take. Just figure out the step pattern that works for your height and speed. Finding the correct step pattern will make a world of difference in the race so apply the principles that I talk about in this videos and your times will come down.
hey I'm a guy hurdler in high school (junior)but I'm short I run decent 1:05 for the 400 and 17.8 for 110 but being 5'5" really buffers my abilitys what should I do hope to get taller? stop it all together or just get faster running abilities
+Anther G the 110's are going to be tough at that height but the intermediates should still be doable. Bershawn Jackson is 5'6 and he runs a 44 sec 400 meter and 47 sec in the 400 hurdles. So just focus on getting in better shape, improving your running form and getting stronger in the gym. I've go videos for all of those things on my channel so head over and take a look at the track and field playlist.
+Rose Drake I started to and was planning on heading to Europe to run the summer track circuit but I pulled my hamstring running a 40 yard dash and decided to call it quits...only time I ever got hurt during my entire career.
+Dewayne Martin Sometimes its just a matter of you not executing a race plan correctly for the shape you're in. Could be you're not conserving enough energy during the first half of the race which is causing you to die on the homestretch. Also, no matter how good of shape you're in, everyone feels like crap in the last 50-100 meters so that's a pretty normal thing. Specific workouts to work on that stuff should really be done in the beginning of the season or even in the off season. They are things like 600's, 500's, repeat 400's etc. If you check out my "How to run a faster 400 meter dash" it will help shed some light on this topic as well.
Hey I'm a 110 and 400 meter runner and im running unattached in college do you have a specific workout routine to get back in shape just in time for the season?
Hey buddy! I sure do, you snag a run faster off season workout plan here: www.jcampfit.com/store/p29/run_faster_-_off_season_track_program.html Its got full lifting workouts and running workouts to get you in shape for your season.
Hey I know this isn't the right video, but I'm 15 years old and I'm pretty slow. My 100m time is 12.62 and my 200m time is 27.1. I feel as if my 200m time is especially bad, and I'm really looking forward to increasing my time to around 26.0 within a week. I sort of realize why I'm running so slow on my 200m and that's because I'm trying to sprint 100% all 200. Now since I've watched your video on the 200m I realize that there are many phases in this event, and my main flaw is that I get gassed in the last 75 meters. So basically what I need to do is 'master' the "floating" phase but I don't really understand what you mean by floating phase, can you please further describe that phase? Thanks! :)
+Goko hey buddy. Sure I'll try to help ya out. The floating phase is basically just a part in the race where you're no longer "pushing" to go fast. You are just maintaining the speed you've built up to that point as easily as possible. So however that feels to you, where you can still run almost just as fast as you were but while conserving energy, thats what you need to learn how to do and for how long in order to give you enough energy to finish the race strong.
hey I really like your video, I am a 400m runner my faster time this year is 48 I want to run in 45 for the world university champ what can I do ? thnk u
+Dakota Brimmer I sure do. One of the best relay meets in the world. I attended Penn State so we went to the Penn Relays each year instead since they are during the same weekend but they are both amazing meets.
I'm know I'm late.....my coach never did this...he just made me run 7 rep of 400 no drills no steps or anything your doing...plus I was not that good in the 400m either.....even I know I could've been better
+SebT 00 Thanks glad you enjoyed it! My personal bests were roughly as follows... 100 meter - 10.6 200 meter - 21.3 300 meter hurdles 37.2 400 meter - 46.6 400 meter hurdles 49.97 Long jump 23 ft Triple Jump 43 ish
