Masters gift for off-season: training videos for vaulters
Mike Soule is our Santa today. A champion M55 pole vaulter living in Minnesota, Mike has posted this series of videos on how to weight-train in the off-season for geezer vaulting. In fact, he calls himself vaultingeezer on his MySpace page. Mike stars in the videos, which depict exercises especially good for comebacking vaulters. This is a wonderful way of sharing one’s wisdom and experience.
In a note announcing his videos (posted four days ago), Mike wrote:
Key thing is the video segments that I put together for “just coming back” training. The idea was to put together a viable training regimen that an athlete could do with a minimum amount of equipment.
Example, my weights and bench I paid $40 for, the bike and Jake machine (even though I bought them new) could probably be picked up for less than a couple hundred bucks on Craigslist. Those that know me know I’m not “a man of few words,” so the segments are a little long but I wanted the viewer to be able to watch it once and have a good idea in his or her minds of what is being accomplished.
Great work, Mike, and Merry Christmas to you and your stick-bending friends!
