Quickest way to Jump Higher! HELP!!!?

Any exercises and FREE jumping programs

NO AIR ALERT PLEASE

admin answers:

It’s really about exercising your cavs muscles. Also genetics plays a huge role. You probably know what color you got to be in order to dunk.

I would say do the exercise where you get on your toes and then come down and do it over and over again. Don’t do them too fast because then you’ll just be bouncing.

You can view my other 3 reports that offer tips and some free exercises.

The Jump Manual is the MOST extensive training guide out there. PERIOD. Of the 5 I have tried, this one offers tips, exercises, forums, one-on-one coaching, diet plans, workout programs, etc.

It is well worth buying it, trust me. My vertical has increased by 13 inches within 4-5 weeks, and im not done yet.

In order to jump higher and increase your vertical jump, you must do the right exercises and know what you are doing.

One of the biggest mistakes guys make in trying to jump higher is they train for endurance and strength only and not for muscle explosion. To jump higher, you want to train your body for explosion, which is a combination of strength and quickness. Calf exercise, squats, lunges,and other strength building exercises are important for building strength and jump roping, and running stairs are good for endurance, but to increase your vertical jump, you must also train for muscle explosion, which involves plyometric exercises.

Plyometrics is where you simulate sports movements and concentrate on simulating jumping movements (explosive motions).
Plyometric exercises are used to develop your quick twitch muscles, used to increase your explosion.

Quality of the exercise is MUCH more important than quantity. 5 reps of proper form will get you in the air much higher than 20 reps of poor form. Also, if you want an explosive vertical, you must train that way! Do every exercise as explosively as possible and go for maximum height. You’re vertical will improve like you never thought possible if you go for more distance on every jump. This is telling your body that you need to get HIGHER.

Besides plyometric exercises, there are other important variables involved to maximize your vertical jumping.
Some includes reducing body fat, proper nutruition, increasing flexibility,
