Single Leg Depth Jump - Vertical Jump - Jump Higher

[toasterbot]

Goodbye knees.

[Program51]

That's why its says advanced, Quad strength must be extremely high, and the biomechanics of the landing and transition must be flawless, Can't land stiff can't let the knee take the grunt if the impact, can't let the knee get over the toe until the last explosive part of the movement. Any advanced unilateral movement is risky if you don't have proper strength and optimal biomechanics.

[toasterbot]

Quad strength has nothing to do with it, this is by definition a hard impact on your knee joints, skilled landing or no. It doesnt matter how big or strong your muscles are if what you are doing is smashing a joint.

[Program51]

Yes quad strength does have a lot to do with it, if not there would be no reason to strengthen the quad after a knee injury. The Quad supports the knee, therefore the stronger the quad the stronger the knee. Every plyometric or olympic style lower body weightroom lift that you do would be classified as smashing a joint. Ligaments tear under those conditions when the supporting muscles fail to handle forces put upon them and the grunt of the force is transfered to the joint.
