Jumping correctly is a basic element in athletics, gymnastics and acrobatics. Your success in these sports will directly depend on your jumping performance, so it's worth monitoring their development.
Instructions
Step 1
Practice stretching. The basis of the jump technique is not only in the jerk with the legs, but also in the correct, coordinated swing, in the work of the shoulders. The developed muscles provide more swing, which, in turn, will allow you to make a strong jerk. Muscle mass is more suitable for lifting weights and unhurried application of force, while a jump is an "explosive", one-time tension. Therefore, to increase the range, muscle mass is not so much important as plasticity, which allows the muscles to move freely.
Step 2
Work on your technique. To feel its importance, try jumping forward without waving your arms at all: the length will immediately be reduced by almost a meter. With the correct, worked out swing, only by means of it you can add up to 30 centimeters in length and 10-15 - in height. The technique of performing a correct jump is very individual for each type of athletics, so it is better to find out the features of the variation you are interested in from a specialist.
Step 3
Take a developmental program. Today's best jump enhancement software is Air Alert, written for NBA basketball players. Complete passage will require about six months from you, but will increase the jump by 30-50 centimeters (2.8 m -> 3.3 m). The exercises indicated in "Air Alert" can also be used for self-study - they are completely self-sufficient and strengthen muscles.
Step 4
Do a workout with weights. These are special pads with sand or metal plates that are attached slightly above the feet. The implication is that during training, these weights constrain divination and build muscle mass to work with more weight than usual. When you release the load, even gravity will start to seem a little less, it will move so easily. However, there are also pitfalls: the regular use of weighting agents greatly interferes with the development of plasticity and stretching.
