The fourth progression is to use the hands-behind-the-neck position. Your next progression will involve adjusting the foot/ankle pad up another notch. Alternate your arm/hand position as previously described.<br>After you have mastered the glute-ham raise from a two-notch increase of the foot/ankle pad, you are ready to move the foot/ankle mechanism one notch closer to the front pad. However, you must lower the foot/ankle pad back to the beginning position. To progress from this point, repeat the sequence of raising the foot/ankle pad and the hand/arm positions as previously done.br>After you have mastered another two-notch raise of the foot/ankle pad, you are ready to bring the foot/ankle mechanism in another notch (see Photo Nine). Go through the exact same sequential progression until you are ready to make the final adjustment to the foot/ankle mechanism (see Photo Ten). When that level of difficulty is mastered, then you should go back to the foot/ankle pad and move it up to the third notch but move the foot/ankle mechanism back only one notch.<br>Your final progression would be to adjust the foot/ankle pad to its highest position and the foot/ankle mechanism to its closest position and perform three sets of 25 reps (See Photo Eleven). Wow! That would take a superior athlete. <br>mitz s stable of Sports Palace athletes continued to grow, his goals began to change.  As my team got better, I began to think that we might be a on these events because that s what our scholarship was for--not the pole vault. As such, her teammates eventually gave up on the experiment and concentrated on the scholarship events. But not Dragila.<br><br><br>High Expectations<br><br>Although she was putting in time with the pole vault, Dragila was still able to perform impressively in the heptathalon. By the time she finished her final year at Idaho State with a degree in physical education and health, she owned five school records and placed second in the 1995 Big Sky Championships. It was at this time that she was able to focus on serious training for the pole vault, and on Jan 13, 1996 in Pocatello, she set an indoor American record, 12 11 3/4 , her first of many to come. <br>The following year was the Olympics, and even though the women s pole vault was not yet approved as an Olympic event, Dragila was able to participate in the Trials on April 20 in Lawrence, Kansas. She really put on a show, setting an American record of 13 6 1/2 . Although she didn t get to compete in the Olympics, she did get to compete in the European circuit that summer. The following year she continued her steady progress and won the World Indoor Championships with a mark of 14 5 1/4 , a vault that tied the world record.<br>To fulfill her potential and achieve her goal of winning the Olympics, Dragila decided to stay in Pocatello to train under Nielsen and work towards a masters degree in health education at ISU. She also works as an assistant track coach, training the vaulters and heptathletes. Her husband, Brent, is also an ISU student, majored in criminal justice and sociology.<br>One of her major competitors is Emma George of Australia, a former circus acrobat, who is the current world record holder at 15 1 1/4 . With the Olympics being held in George s home country, Dragila knows she needs to work even harder to bring home the gold. To win it, she says it will probable take vaulting as high as 16 feet, which she thinks is definitely within her reach by then.<br><br> <br>Anything <br>You Can Do. . . .<br><br>Just as Dragila s vaulting ability has improved, so has the popularity of the event.  I had heard that high school girls were starting to do it in California,
