High Jump: Short Approach to Apron Drill

This is a short approach to apron, a drill used in the high jump. This short approach will show you how to transfer the high jump four step short approach to the apron. Start by measuring from the inside of the standard, measure the width out that was developed. Then measure the distance back to where the athlete started from, which will be your starting point for the four step short approach in the high jump.
