In this video, you will learn how to jump higher by improving your form in 6 simple steps.

Many athletes don’t realize the importance of their form when jumping.

Most athletes have really bad form, which robs them of several inches when they jump.

Implement what you learn in this video, and you will notice a difference the next time you jump.

One of the best ways to be better at your sport is simply to be stronger.

Almost all sports require some form of weight lifting because as the sports get more and more competitive, every athlete is looking for that edge to be the best.

I remember Dwayne Wade, Dwight Howard, and LeBron James, are incredibly strong guys.

You can tell just by looking at them.

Sure, conditioning, drills, and isometric training have their places in your training regimen, but to really become a stronger athlete, nothing beats good old fashion weight lifting.

So, according to my buddy
Dan (who runs this site!), the response has been pretty good to the recent content I’ve contributed to the site…which besides making me *smile*, it also means I’m going to continue to churn out some really good articles for you, full of tips and tricks you can use to start running faster and moving quicker TODAY.

Now, it goes without saying that there are a TON of exercises you can choose from when figuring out your workouts… [...]

I thought I had seen it all when it comes to MJ’s dunks, but I clearly missed one of his best.

I just found this dunk on YouTube and thought I’d share it with you.

The dunk happened during a 1986 Nike sponsored exhibition game in Italy.

Some people say this clip is fake, and that this is not the real Jordan, but I believe it’s legit.

What do you think?

I hope you’re enjoying the holiday with your family.

I have some great news that will make your holiday even better!

As you know, Jacob Hiller is one of the top vertical jump experts in the world.

He is also the creator of the Jump Manual, widely considered to be the best vertical jump program in the world.

Since it’s the holiday season, I wanted to do something really special for you, as a way of saying  THANK YOU for always visiting my site and subscribing to my newsletter.

So… [...]

Let’s get real for a second.

I’m assuming…

• You want results from your training.
• You want the best results in the quickest possible time.

Just because your workout is ‘neat’, and just because it is difficult does not mean it is creating the desired training effect.

This sounds silly, as well as obvious.

I get lots of questions in my inbox all about getting faster, quicker and more explosive.

Some are good, some are bad, some are….whatever

And as of late, I’ve been getting a lot of questions about something called “isometric” strength training and how it relates to speed training and YOU getting faster (these are “good” questions).

Let’s talk about it…

[...]

Wsup everyone.

Hope you’re having a great day.

Speed training experts Kelly Baggett and Alex Maroko are currently doing a special holiday promo for their Truth About Quickness program.

Running faster is fairly easy.
I’ll explain…

If you came to this article to learn exactly how to run faster, then you’ve come to the right place.

That’s because I am about to simplify speed for you, and tell you exactly how to run faster.

Here we go…

Running faster is about two things:

It’s been said by many people that the six pack is the holy grail of working out and getting in shape, and you certainly need a strong core to jump higher.

For many, this can be a frustrating challenge, if you’re carrying around a pot belly, or an overhang.

All you want to do is get rid of it!

Well, there’s a lot more to abs training than exercises such as nutrition and cardio, but this article will focus on the abs training exercises that build muscle the fastest.

So… I was sitting outside today wearing my favorite tennis shorts and randomly checking Facebook, when I came across something really exciting.

My friend Shirley had a really cool status update that revealed a sneaky Facebook trick.

If you’re into video games, especially the classic ones, this trick will bring back some memories.

Aahh, the memories…

Anyway, here’s the Facebook trick:

Press up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, Enter key, then left click.

It’s the classic Konami Code.

If you do this correctly, magic circles will appear every time you click the mouse!

To get rid of them, you have to refresh the page or log-out.

Totally random, but fun.

What’cha think?

This abs training video was made by my boy Mitch.

We went to the same college, and I frequently ran into him at the gym.

In fact, this video was shot in the very same gym I used to train in…

I remember Mitch being the go-to-guy at the gym, always helping others train and blast through their plateaus.

He is pretty knowledgeable when it comes to weight training, and I always turn to him for advice.

If you are tired of your current ab training workout and aren’t seeing good results with it, try his advanced ab exercises.

They will work to strengthen your core, give you six pack abs, and help you jump higher.

To learn more about him, check out his website: www.FitWithMitch.com

vertical jump supplements

One common question that I keep getting from readers is whether supplements really help us jump higher.

I can’t blame you – there’s thousands of supplements in the market today claiming to work wonders, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to separate the great products from the crappy ones.

The sad truth is that most supplements are total crap, merely marketing gimmicks by large supplement companies to steal your hard-earned money.

However, there are a few supplements that really aid in vertical jump training.

The first thing to remember is that supplements are just that – SUPPLEMENTS.

They are meant to support your current diet.

Taking supplements by themselves will not help you increase your vertical jump.

You need to have a good diet already in place for supplements to have maximum effect.

So, which vertical jump supplements help you jump higher?

Cool video showing the Top 10 dunks from the 2009 NBA Sprite Slam Dunk Showdown.

Guy Dupuy is one of my favorite dunkers in the world.

Hope to see him in next years NBA Slam Dunk Contest during All Star Weekend.

He will give all the NBA dunkers a run for their money!

The Air Up There a.k.a Mr. 720 (for his famous 720 dunk) is world-class when it comes to dunking.

He was born Taurian Fontenette, and hails from Hitchcock, Texas.

Just watch how high he gets up almost effortlessly…and the power he packs in each of his dunks.

If I were him, I might consider Scrapbooking my dunks, because they are all classic and memorable.

Easily one of my favorite dunkers of all time, I hope he makes it to the NBA Slam Dunk contest.

If he does, LeBron, Dwight Howard and the rest will be in BIG trouble.

Damien Walters from the United Kingdom is a professional stuntman and free runner.

He also coaches gymnastics.

I just came across this video today and his stuff is INCREDIBLE.

It takes some serious flexibility, creativity, jumping ability and PRACTICE to do the stuff he does.

I wonder what his vertical jump is.

What do you think it is?

There is nothing worse than getting injured in sports.

I’ve had my fair share of injuries, but the worst happened when I was in high school.

I injured my left knee badly, and I had to miss a whole season of basketball.

I couldn’t practice, and all I could do was sit on the bench and cheer my teammates on.

I didn’t mind cheering for my teammates, but I was itching to play.

I wanted to help the team by being on the court, not the bench.

During my sophomore year in college, I injured my left knee again.

I got a serious case of patellar tendonitis (jumper’s knee) that made it almost impossible to run or change speeds.

I’m sure you’ve had a similar experience too, so today I’m going to talk about the different ways to prevent injuries while training your vertical jump.

I’ve outlined the top 6 injury prevention methods in a simple yet fun to read article.

I’ve been receiving many questions on plyometrics, but I’ve noticed that nobody ever talks about

upper body plyometrics.

Most vertical jump programs always focus on lower body plyometric drills, and I’ve noticed that it’s extremely difficult to find good info about upper body plyos on the internet.

I personally think that upper body plyos are the missing ingredient in most athletes workouts.

Everyone has heard of depth jumps and done them many times, but how many athletes do you know who perform upper body depth jumps?

Alan Barch Jr. is a 5′9″ athletic trainer who recently recorded the world’s first OFFICIAL
50 inch vertical jump.

This has to be the highest vertical jump ever recorded.

Many athletes have been RUMORED to have a 50 inch vertical leap, but they have never bothered to get tested.

Alan is the first who has OFFICIALLY been tested and measured.

It’s amazing to see how high he gets off the ground.

Here are the official results of his test:

Height: 5′9″

Standing reach: 7 feet 5.5 inches

Standing vertical jump: 50 inches

Running vertical jump: 54.5 inches

If this doesn’t inspire you to train harder, nothing will!

So if you want to take your vertical to the next level, read my review of the
best vertical jump programs right now.

Pick the one that best suits you, and follow it to the T.

Challenge yourself to see how close you can get to Alan’s incredible feat.

Khadour Ziani is a 5′ 10″ French dunker (originally from Algeria) rumored to have a 56 inch vertical jump.

I don’t know if he can jump that high, but he is one of my favorite dunkers of all time (gotta rep for the short guys).

He has some pretty SICK dunks, especially when he jumps off one foot.

His signature dunk is a 360 off one foot, and he is also famous for his ability to KICK the rim.

Let me know what you think of his dunks by leaving a comment below.

Also, if you want to learn how to dunk like Khadour, check out our comprehensive review of the top 3 vertical jump programs in the market.

The Pareto Principle

Today, I want to tell you about the #1
vertical jump training rule that almost NOBODY knows about.

The cool thing is that this rule doesn’t just apply to vert training.

It applies to EVERYTHING in life.

The rule was accidentally discovered by an Italian economist called Vilfredo Pareto when he noticed that 80% of the land in Italy was owned by 20% of the population.

When he thought about this in more detail, he discovered that this applied to everything in life.

Okay…I have to admit it.

I’m not a big fan of Shaq when he’s beefin’ with Kobe, but when he’s not doing that, he has to be one of the coolest people on the planet.

From his backboard-shattering dunks, breakdancing and “not-so-killer” crossover attempts during NBA All-Star games, he is definitely fun to watch.

In this video, he takes on fellow 7-footer Big Show in a pro wrestling match.

I actually used to love watching the WWE back in the day.

I loved all the scripted drama, the “steel-cage” matches, Muzica Gratis, and how they bashed each others heads with Beer pong tables.

Brings back some cool memories…

What do you think about Shaq in this video?

Jumpers knee

Jumpers knee a.k.a patellar tendonitis, is one of the most frustrating injuries for athletes like you and me.

It makes it extremely painful and sometimes almost impossible to run and jump.

I’ve personally suffered from tendonitis on my left knee, and it began when I did a certain vertical jump program when I was 16 years old (if you follow this blog, you will know what program that is).

The injury caused me to lose several inches on my vertical jump, and took me out of action for a whole year.

Anyway, I’ve compiled a list of the different ways to prevent and treat this common injury.

You can read it here.

If you want to jump higher for your sport, it’s important to know how to prevent and cure this common injury.

Learn how to do this now before it’s too late.
