How to Jump Higher TipsI wanted to take the time to share with you how to jump higher with some tips I have. There are a lot of benefits to jumping higher that can push you ahead of the competition. Being able to dunk seems to be people's big points, but it's not a necessity. I'm thinking about how great you could be as a defensive player if you could get higher to reject a ball. I'm thinking of the great rebound control you'd have by being able to get to the ball first. Dunking is all fun and good, but it's the other things that win basketball ball games. I'm going to show you some of my jump higher tips to help you increase your vertical leap.I think I have to start out by showing you the "big 2" exercises that are going to help you improve. Most people don't focus on them because they have no idea they help. Squats and running. Doesn't sound so glamorous, but they're the exercises that are going to give you a big jump. Squats work the entire leg and are going to give you the muscles required to push yourself off the ground. Running gives you that explosive push off required to elevate yourself. One of the best jump higher tips I can give you is walking around on the tips of your toes for 30 minutes. It sounds a lot easier than it actually is. After 10 minutes, you'll probably be in pain. If you can last the full 30 minutes your first time, than I suggest trying to do it while you walk backwards. |
