Respect bro keep working my first jump was 12.97 and I'm working on improving it🙏🏾🦾

Hi what’s the core workouts tho?

Exactly 📝

Much appreciated! And yeah, progress rarely happens without dedication 💡

✊🏿

Keep going my man. I’ll be looking for your name in the near future ✊🏿

@@oolamigoke Will do, your an inspiration thx.

@@soulmontano666 Just out of curiosity, how far did/do you jump, and what was his record?

Right now as a sophomore I jump 41’ 3.5”. His record is 52’ 4.25”. I still have two more years but it’s going to be a journey. Thanks for asking. How far do you jump??

Good points with all of the above. All movement is helpful in the right amount when done mindfully.

On it!

Keep me posted with your progress ✊🏿

Congrats on the progression! Bounding should definitely help, but don’t expect overnight results. Just keep at it.

My coach thinks with the competition I can jump 38 ish but I really do think I am able to get further but idk how to get there within 2 weeks

Not to pound, I am so sorry this is a lot to read if you will. How far do you think I could take my jumping if I were to continue through highschool and maybe college. My main sport is Football but I’m too young to dedicate my self to that since there’s so much competition in this country. I’m just curious. Thank you for the content and coaching!

@@zify6974 My biggest piece of advice is to forget any time constraint. Maybe you'll get it in 2 weeks, maybe you won't. What's important is that you're committed to the process of improving over time.

@@oolamigoke Thank you for always responding to my comments! I always appreciate an amazing mentor

Keep at it and more will come

Sounds like you need to work on improving your core strength! I’m currently working on a bunch more videos yo upload over the next few weeks, but these exercises here will help you in the meantime ru-vid.com/group/PLDIYPzClfya8PYcet20xM_XnK5KyMZDAx

That’s exactly my issue! My coach says I have around a 14 ft first step but my second step is quite literally a step.

@@andyli3608 yeah, I have gotten better with this issue now, but I’m still struggling to hit 40ft, my hop is around 14ft, step is around 10ft and jump is around 13ft,my phases have gotten much more balanced then before

@@ktjm77 do you know what changed to give you that momentum into the second phase?

@@andyli3608 try making ur hop a tiny bit less because if you are reaching out and hopping way too far then you will land really hard and it will have like a huge crash affect on you and you second phase will be hard to carry out so make you hop more natural also land with an active foot, so as soon as you land try explode back into a bound for your step. also try shortening your approach because a too long approach can make you tired by the time you reach the board and make you lose speed. last thing is to practice short 5-10 stride approaches on a smaller board and like bring your knees up through the phases also add a lot of bounding and plyometrics similar to bounding to help you get used to bringing your knees up and actually bounding rather than stepping forward on your step phase.

This season I have PRed so far by 3 feet and hoping to get 3 feet higher than PR in 2 days to win a meet. 1. Don’t land too hard after hop, it’ll strain your leg too much to be able to have a good step phase 2. Bring your front knee on the step phase up very high, and try to keep it that high for as long as possible. Good luck!

This all varies based on your experience. Some good rules to follow early on are to count your ground contacts rather than your distances, and that the quality of your bounding should always take precedence over the quantity.

"Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you're right." - Henry Ford You can bound and do plyometric work 2-3 times per week, just make sure you're recovering well between sessions.

@@oolamigoke got it thank you. Do you recommend any plyometrics I should be doing? Also, should I be hitting legs in the weight room in Addition to doing bounds and plyos?

Anything is possible! But you will have to put the work in for yourself if you want to see the results.

Short answer: train consistently and bound a lot over the summer 👌🏿

My first triple jumps at 15 were around 34-35 feet. 2 months later they were at 44 feet consistently. Keep working and you’ll get there.

@@oolamigoke how did you improve so damn quick in two months??? Bounding?

​@@lacesit I studied the hell out of the event on RU-vid and tried everything I saw the pros doing when I went to practice lol. I actually didn't start bounding until the summer that year.

I'm not, I'm 32 😂

@@oolamigoke I thought u were like 25 😭
