Master this stage of the approach vertical jump!

To summarize,
1. Get ankles strong in extremes
2. Train one sided contraction of the back of you
3. Get core strong static and moving
The knee and eccentric contraction of the quad on the plant leg is a big part of early stage. This is usually taken care of if you’re squatting jumping and doing cleans. Eccentric overload might help but it’s not a big deal.
Internal rotation of the hip at the block is also important. Shock braking like I’ve posted multiple times can help.

    Yooo this is super valuable man! I’m a 2 foot jumper and I really struggle with max approach speed because I don’t think I can handle that eccentric loading during the plant and block phases before take off. Definitely will be trying out the lateral hopping bound drills, they look really useful. Thank you 🙏 PS you earned yourself a sun with this one

    this angle of planting looks so insane, it looks like if anything id lose vertical...but that is why you can dunk and i can't even touch rim i guess lol

    It's taken a lot of time haha. The angle accentuates it to. Good logic, be careful copying pro jumpers "technique" It is often a result of their physical tools and not necessarily cues to do the movement. If you do take something away from the video though just start training the aspects involved in the early stages at whatever level you can. Jump and lift a lot good luck man.
