Kenyan javelin star Julius Yego has explained what he has been doing differently that has seen him return to top form and even win a Diamond League leg.
Former world javelin champion Julius Yego believes he is reaping the rewards of taking good care of himself following his recent upturn in form.
Yego won his first Diamond League leg in nine years when he claimed victory in Silesia, Poland last weekend following a throw of 83.60m.
The 36-year-old has had to contend with niggling injuries that have bothered him since winning Olympics silver in 2016 but he is crediting a return to basics and ensuring that his body is in peak conditions for the improvements he is making.
“As I finished the season last year, it is the way my body still is now, at a very good level. I still feel okay and healthy,” Yego told Pulse Sports.

Julius Yego Reveals Next Big Target After Ending Nine-Year Wait for Diamond League Win
Kenya's javelin great Julius Yego is now confident of a World Championships medal after his heroics in Silesia.
What is Yego Doing Differently Now?
“Javelin is all about technique, it is not about the power you have and I have been improving, maintaining my technique and speed as well.”
Yego then went into details over what he is doing differently now that has led to his good performances.
“I have to check what I do in training; I have to be very careful on what I do and many things like seeing a physio for massage because that is how to stay healthy,” he added.
“I should not overwork my body and miss physio sessions. I have to maintain those frequent visits to make sure my muscles are okay because we use deep muscles.”

Julius Yego Makes Massive Statement with First Diamond League Win in Nine Years
Kenya’s javelin legend Julius Yego rolled back the years by winning his first Diamond League series meeting in nine years following a good show in Silesia.
Kenyan Star Still Not Happy Though
However, Yego, whose personal best is 92.72m, recorded at the 2015 World Championships, when he won gold, admits he is still far from being a medal contender at the 2025 edition set to take place in Tokyo, Japan in September.
“I have not reached that level that I was when I did 92m. I am sure when I improve my technique, I will be able to be thereabouts and even the same distance. But that is not important, the main thing now for me is to be very ready for the World Championships,” said the five-time African champion.
“The men’s javelin, the standards have been really going up and to be able to compete with them, I have to be able to throw 90m. If you throw 90m, you are safe to get a medal.”
