3x Team USA High Jumper Dontavious Hill explains why hesitation in the final two steps “nerfs” your jump, where that slowdown really comes from, and how elite jumpers finish their approach with speed and intent.

You’ll learn:
- Why slowing down at takeoff kills height and confidence
- How fear and safety instincts cause hesitation in the last two steps
- Simple practice drills to finish your approach fast and aggressive

Perfect for high school high jumpers (and parents) who feel like they’re running well early but losing power right before takeoff.
