BO JACKSONI taught myself how to pole vault in one day. The next day I entered a meet to pole vault and won it all for the state of Alabama.

BO JACKSONI was always the fastest and strongest kid in my school so events like the 100 meter and discus throwing attracted me.
BO JACKSONBut now, I get up every morning and go to the gym because I don’t like waking up stiff or in pain and wondering if my hip is going to hurt me.

BO JACKSONMy confidence and drive to go play came when I realized how gifted I was at such a young age and how much bigger my build was than the kids my age.

BO JACKSONSo you have to be more mentally focused in baseball.
