Much respect bro! I started freshman year (Junior now) and jumped 4'10 :P Now I'm jumping 5'10 and just need to get my feet up quicker for 6. Best of luck to you!
Great job improving, you show that hard work does pay off. on the other hand i feel talented to have cleared all of those heights my freshman year of high school
hey man nice work, im a senior and im right behind you haha. i saw a vid of your workouts, and theres a couple extra workouts that i know that can possibly help you, but overall man your form looks really good, and at some clips, if you hold your arch a split second more, you'll be getting 6'2, 6'4 easy
Hey, I started high jumping this year (I'm only in 7th grade), and I was wondering if you could give me any tips on how to jump better (besides the basic j-approach, pivot, and drive). I usually run in the morning for distance, and we run about 3 miles. Are there any other good workouts where I could try to make my vertical better? Anyway, thanks :)! It would help alot! :)
what i did, was i searched youtube, and combined several workouts and used the ones that worked for me. i recommend finding videos by 'stretchexpert' and 'destorm', who have some great workouts that you can do at practically no cost to increase your vertical. i saw quick results, but they're not by any means major.
haha you jump from the left like i do, im a freshman starting at 5 hopefully i can do like you, how did you train by the way, you couldnt have possibly just jumped the whole time?
during the summer i lifted like a mad man, still do in fact. squats, deadlifts, some upper body stuff, and i run five days a week. during winter i ran sprint/distance workouts with the team, and after some days id do 10 minutes on bleachers, atleast twice a week - i avoided lifting during season at all costs to stay fresh. then during spring i jumped a lot and ran workouts with the team. overall, the lifting and the bleachers had the best impact on increasing my vertical.
your technique really improved good job man but you could go way higher but i dont find you drive up long enough before you arch but anyway good job man just though this tip could help
nice! im so pissed, i went 5'4 my frosh year, then i was stuck at 5'6 till my senior year, but i still only got 5'10 once :(.... triple jump is where i excel: 34' frosh, 37'2 soph, 40'10 junior, 42' senior
My freshman year i just started jumping again and yesterday i cleared 5'6 and i scissor kicked 4'8 im feeling like its gone be a good season
