Looking for a vertical jump program? There are many to choose from, but I will give you some tips and pointers in the next few paragraphs so that you can know a little more about the human body and that way make an informed decision on which vertical training program you should buy.
Jumping is not about how much muscle you have, so don't worry if you have small legs or calves because size doesn't matter when it comes to jumping. What does matter is how well your legs act under pressure. When you bend down before jumping, it is known as the loading phase. If your legs can take that pressure of the bend in your legs, you will be able to jump high. But if your legs aren't strong enough, they will lose the natural rubber effect that occurs when you bend and the muscles and tendons in your leg are stretched.
Workout for the Jumping Program
- Hamstring Curls - You need to train the hamstrings and glutes by doing hamstring curls because they are heavily involved with jumping.
- Light Squats - Yes you need to go light because heavy will cause knee problems if you are jumping and you need to do them fast. Heavy weight will make you stronger but it won't make you faster.
If you have not worked out in a while, you might be sore for a couple of days just training hamstrings with curls and squats. Don't worry the soreness will go away and you will be able train harder.
