Mental effort and pure force in every rep while working out is the most important element of training. What's helped me explode my vertical jump is striving to make a 90 degree angle between my legs and the ground, and then instantaneously jumping up and forward.
Watched this video again, few months after watching for the first time. Can't stress enough how excellent the explanations and demonstrations are. Top notch!
thank you for this excellent video. there’s so much garbage exercise videos on youtube. honestly, I struggle to even get a couple of inches off the ground. I have no explosive energy, sadly. but I am interested in the challenge of it. I am 50 and lift heavy weights. i wonder if it’s possible to improve without injury.
Thank you!!!! Intention x Impulse = PLYOMETRICS……. I have had so many arguments with coaches about this. I have also said Plyometrics sits on spectrum….. MAx Effort requires MAX CNS recovery- and high speed running and sprinting is also plyometrics. Stretch shortening cycle is a bit longer like you pointed out but it is still plyometric…. How we capture energy from the ground and instantaneously use it for movement. Great video champ
One can perform plyometrics during the in season as well, but the focus will be more geared towards maintenance; so lower volume and number of sessions.
Probably 2-3 each for upper body and lower body. Do ones that involve different planes. Progress or regress them as necessary. Keep time per set under 10 seconds I’d say.
