Tips for performing the vertical jump test:
Don’t stretch before
Make sure you are fresh (Not within 72 hours of high volume leg day)
Fast countermovement
Science of the vertical jump
Higher Stretch Rate = More stored energy = more concentric power = higher vertical jump
Running start increases vertical jump by 6-12 inches (10 inches in one study)
*Redirection of forward momentum
Typical athlete norms
Male college athletes: 15-22 inches
Average D1 soccer males ~24.3 inches
Female college athletes: 10-16 inches

5’9” 3 days before my marathon I had access to a just jump mat and got 30” CMJ. 5 inches away from dunking still. I would love a training videos on improving the vertical jump. Also maybe something on troubleshooting or ways to bring up a lagging quality, for instance my running jump is only 2” higher than my CMJ and I cannot figure out for the life of me why, the form just feels unnatural anything beyond a 3 step approach

@TheMovementSystem 2 года назад

That’s a impressive vertical jump especially with marathon training. Typically that type of training would decrease vertical jump significantly. There is a lot of individual variability in running vertical jump because of technique. I’ll have to cover that in a future video

@Blasian62 2 года назад

I'm 5'6", will be 27 in a month and a half. CMJ is about 25". Running with an approach as I use in volleyball is 29.5". My goal is to seriously train to touch the rim by the end of next year. Got about 7-8" to go.

@TheMovementSystem 2 года назад

Nice! Get after it

@emeraldeggz Год назад

I was incredibly unathletic and had a 16 inch vertical when starting freshman year track and field. Sophomore now, Off season training and an obsession to high jumping I tested my vertical a couple weeks ago and Jumped a 31 inch vert. At 5'10 & 140lbs I'd say its pretty good, only known huge football players to out jump me and 1 of my high jumper friends at 6'5 and 32 inch vert. My biggest recommendation would be power cleaning(like religiously) and plyometrics for explosive-ness and squats.

Checking the comments made me feel like shit 🥲 .... I'm 19 height- 5'6" with a 20" standing vertical jump . How tf someone you guys reaching 35+ ? 😭

@TheMovementSystem Год назад

There’s probably a lot of bias. Guys like me with a more average vertical jump like 18 inches aren’t as likely to leave a comment

@mireaaa Год назад

But I did gain like ~20 kgs of mostly unhealthy weight in a span of a few months because I was too skinny at around 52kilos and now down to 68.5 kilos from a max of 72kgs. And working towards shedding the unhealthy weight and feeling better physically. Cheers.

@RansomRaps 2 года назад

That's crazy, I had a 36" countermovement vertical when I was 16 and could do standing box jumps higher than my head 6'1" I didn't think it was that impressive back then but now that I'm seeing this its kind of cool and this definitely inspires me to start working out again.

@pouriyakarimi8507 2 года назад

@fadielbaba89 Год назад

I have 17.5" cmj with hand on the hip on force plates. In our institute we have contact mat and force plates. I can tell you there is a big difference UP TO 6 inches between them., even when calculating flight time on both equipment.

@codyladson 7 месяцев назад

I love your videos! I was a D2 football player a couple years ago and tested my standing vertical as 39.5 inches. But for some reason I do not know how to get better at a running vertical jump. Mine only increases by a 2-5 inches when running

@strawbs9555 5 месяцев назад

15, 5'10. I have a 30 inch vert ish (not sure because i think the rim i play on might be a little lower or heigher than exactly 10 ft) Only ever had like one plyometric training session. My friends always said i had trash bounce but found out reason i had such a hard time was because of my t rex arms

@averagedev8735 2 года назад

Not sure if you will respond to this but I measured my running vertical off one foot and max around 36-38". I can't give an accurate answer on my standing jump but I think is around 27-28". I've seen natural jumping ability growing up but I am 17 standing 188cm tall, and I'm curious to what my potential max is if I train more than I do currently? Perhaps if I trained like Ja Morant haha

@flighttime3173 Год назад

You might get even better, you don’t know your potential until you train hard

I never actually trained jumping or anything related i was just always jumping high i measured it st about 35 inches at height of 5 7 so even if i jump high in basketball it doesnt matter since i am short (average height in serbia for a man is 6 0)

@yuremomshouse Год назад

I’m 13 and my standing vertical is 18 and my running is 22. I’m 5’9 if that effects what so ever. Is my vertical good?

@consoommediaandlie8614 6 месяцев назад

It'll get better as you get older lil' n. For your age that's alright but some kids go enter puberty earlier/later and go through it faster/later so its hard to say what it would look like when you're fully grown around 18 or whatever.

@swaritt2777 6 месяцев назад

My counter movement jump is 26-28 inches but my running vertical jump is only 30 inches. I am unable to use the momentum of running to my advantage and often end up with a running vertical jump that's less than my counter movement vertical jump.

@tk0150 Год назад

I’m 62 years old, 6’ 1” at 165lbs. My vertical stationary number is 22 inches. Just starting some training and weights. I think I’ll add several more to that number. Pretty good? I’d like to dunk again😊

Great video, thanks! But should you test after or before deaload week?

@TheMovementSystem 2 года назад

As long as you are consistent it shouldn't matter but I would probably test before the deload in most cases since I often incorporate testing as a plus set in the most intense week of training

@Birdiesflyhigh Год назад

Any ideas why the difference between my CMJ and vertical jump with running approach is only 4inches (21in vs 25in)? Lacking technique on the running approach?

@TheMovementSystem Год назад

Yea that’s likely a technique deficit with your approach

@sscswimmer1 Год назад

How are you supposed to reach? Should I be fully protracting and turning my shoulder to reach further? As a swimmer, I feel like I reach much higher than someone with similar arm length and height. I can extend my reach an extra 2.5 inches from resting arm up to protracted shoulder, I'm not sure if that's normal or not. I see a lot of people doing the reach measuring and they just put their arm up and do nothing else. Some even put both arms up? How do you normally test it?

@TheMovementSystem Год назад

Technically it doesn’t matter if you do the same each time you test as long as you’re just looking for progress. The standardized protocol for it involves reaching as high as possible just like you will during the jump.

@TheMovementSystem 2 года назад

What's your vertical jump? Mine (one try for this video 3 days before racing an ironman) was 18.5 inches. I think with incorporating some plyometric training I could be around 20-21 inches in 6-8 weeks.

@NevJumps 2 года назад

Mine is at 20 inches right now. I'm aiming on increasing it to 30 inches by summer next year tho!

@demrobinson9 2 года назад

Why not use male volleyball, Track & Field, or Db in football? They typically have higher vertical jumps. My vertical jump standing was 33 in freshman year of college. I think a video explaining the building a vertical jump program would be great. Talking about how strength and plyos quick/long are important overall for a vertical jump program. Love your content In Strength be blessed 🙌🏾

@TheMovementSystem 2 года назад

Good point, but I can't think of any male volleyball players off the top of my head. Including the NBA/ soccer players was more just a frame of reference that people in the USA and internationally can compare to. I'm sure there are high jumpers that have a 35+ inch standing vertical. I worked with the Ohio State Track and Field Team and there were some seriously springy athletes.

@demrobinson9 2 года назад

@@TheMovementSystem byron Jones CB for Dallas Cowboys several years ago had a 44 1/2 inch vertical jump. Most of the NFL combine data is out there for people to look up. I figured you use those athletes because of name recognition. Not sure what Vince Carters numbers or Spud Webb but they have to be huge as well.

@TheMovementSystem 2 года назад

Yea that’s impressive. I’ll have to look at combine data and use it in a future video

It’s hard to say. Plyometric gains are very individual. It may take longer than that but get started putting in the work

@preacherpritt1013 2 года назад

Mine was 32 in on the vert pad but I don't think it was accurate tbh. If I had to actually guess I think mine was closer to 28-30. It's funny I was able to high jump over 6ft 4 in in track but I was never able to dunk. I attribute this to my baby hands ( I was never able to palm a ball)

@raulalves1887 10 месяцев назад
