There is nothing worse than getting injured in sports.

I’ve had my fair share of
vertical jump training 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.

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.

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