  High jump is a track and field event in which is you must jump over the bar without drop it down. 

As a student, we need to know how to do the execute a high jump right ? So, the important things that we need to focus is the phases of high jump to make sure we can clear the bar.

Its okay, I will help you guys to clear it.

Alright, the phases in high jump we have 5 phases.

1. Approach measurement

2. Approach phase 

3. Take off phase

4. Flight phase

5. Landing phase

Okay, now I will explain every phase and how to do it 😉 Don't worry. 

    For the approach phase are divided into two which is approach measurement and approach phase. The approach measurement is the step for you to marking before start the jump. Firstly, you need to make arms parallel from the edge of landing mat. Then, take 2 step forward and mark it as a takeoff point where you need to start to make a running. What you need to is from the 2 step, you need to make a straight line for 5 step and mark then 5 step curve as marking that have been called as "J" style. 

Secondly, approach phase where for you to have acceleration before start jump. Do at the 5 step straight line and 5 step on the curve where to keep momentum to maintain your speed before making a jump.  

Thirdly is takeoff phase. At this phase you have a feel to jump across the bar which is to maintain your speed and stay away from the bar. Put your hand up which the action can be single or double at the takeoff. If you are ready to takeoff leg, your knees will be brought up because of stored energy from the previous step. 

Wait..... Are you guys can image how this phase work ? hehe, I hope a little bit you can get it yaa.

I will continue for the last two phase okay.

Next, flight phase where you need to jump and clear pass the bar. During takeoff, your head should to look at the far standard with hips will raise over the bar. when you jump, you need to bring your head back to the chest to make sure your feet will clear the bar and the can landing on your upper back. 

Lastly, landing phase where you need to land on the mat properly. To make a proper land, you need to land with your upper back first and then land with your shoulders. This will make the rest of your body follow landing and can avoid from injury. 

Okay, since I cannot do a practical so I will share some video from YouTube to make you guys clear about the phases of high jump.
