Exercises to Test Your Vertical Explosion - Focusing on Vertical Leap Form

Exercises to Test Your Vertical Explosion - Focusing on Vertical Leap Form


We're going to discuss how you can increase and improve your form and increase the power of your vertical jump. Today we're going to be talking specifically about rapid and synchronized counter movements. When we're talking about counter movements we're talking about the movement that happens right before you explode.

You want to make sure that your counter movements happen rapidly and happen in perfect synchronization so that the elastic energy can be correctly and timely used to create upward propulsion. That's what needs to happen. One way you can go and test this right now just with your standing vertical, your no step, two foot standing vertical. You can go and watch how other people do the standing vertical. People are going to slowly get into a crouching position and try and explode up. What you want to do is allow gravity to press you down as quickly as possible so it can even be helpful to get on your tiptoes and then allow the gravity to push you to the ground and as soon as you get into that jumping position get right back up.

There's no going slowly into the jumping position and then exploding, you're dropping into position as quickly as possible with your arms correctly timed back and your torso correctly in position to explode upwards and it's all happening at once. You're like a coil or a spring that's quickly pressed down and then quickly allowed to explode upwards.

This stuff really works. You can go outside and you can practice it, you can watch how other people are jumping. The way you are able to execute your counter movements, how quickly you are able to do it and how synchronized that entire movement is is going to make a large difference in your overall power output. And the stronger you get and the more flexible you are the better advantage you are going to be able to take of your entire vertical jump by improving your form. There's so much more that you can do with your form to gain extra power. Start developing this form as quickly as possible.
