Here we present a series of videos highlighting the various gymnastics exercises of the German national team.
Pole vaulting shares many elements with the event of gymnastics, and so it makes sense to integrate gymnastics training into your pole vault training in some capacity. Not everyone has access to sophisticated gymnastics training equipment, but check with local gymnastics training facilities, many have classes you can take or “open” nights where they will let you try out their equipment.
If you cant find access to equipment, many exercises, such as handstands, cartwheels, and somersaults can be done on the grass. As with any aspect of pole vault training, its imperative that you work with a qualified coach. The athletes featured in these videos are professionals, and care should be taken to not attempt anything without being in supervision of a qualified coach.
This is a rather large set of videos, so hopefully there will be something for everyone.
