I feel like all these explanation videos are super informative, but I just hope maybe you could relate these type of information to jumps in track and field too

the best awnser to this is literally calculate your max box jump and put it a quarter of a foot higher u want to geg off of it with drop jump form and use your hands for support when landing

If anyone I think Isiah is the one who should try and get up to 60. (if these contemporary generations of athletes already in their 20's can reasonably and realistically aim there at all) What makes me say it is his foremost his age, I'm 28 and if I remember correctly he's a bit younger. This'll make him able to just tap now into the potential of his heavy lifting, as he's getting his fully developed male body. Making all he's done so far just his actual base! Secondarily, but a necessary codition, Isiah is now 10 years ahead of himself with his understanding of jump posturality and efficiency. Meaning in his mind I'm sure he can visualize (his) perfect movement efficiency but he must know he's still far from that. And nothing stays the same. Which is exciting!! #AirBendIt260

[@emanuel6839]

I’m loving this kind of content 🔥

[@nomiwang10]

Isiah I have a question for you. Do you recommend conjugate training method for the flexibility it provides? I’m a full-time engineering student and at the same time working full time in a restaurant to pay off my tuition. I still love training but I really need to program it well to make sure I won’t burn out. So I did a lot bit research on training programming and I’m really buy into conjugate method now.

Yo what are you're opinions on wall-sits as a isometric for vertical jump training?​@@IsaiahRivera1

[@NoPlanNoProb]

@@IsaiahRivera1Yo Isiah have you seen that recent study about increasing rate of force development with supplemental hydrolyzed collagen and vitamin C? I think I tried to tell you about a similar study that implied this should work years ago but now it’s recently been proven. The study is “Collagen and Vitamin C Supplementation Increases Lower Limb Rate of Force Development.”

[@mackuram]

What do you think about Ja Morant's workout,his dad made him jump on the tractor tire and said that made him really athlethic.

[@Qerti100]

He just means that he did a lot of plyometrics from a young age, of course that's gonna get you jumping out the gym

[@Muttal9348]

if you are really young doing a ton of plyos will definitely give you a very high ceiling

[@800Jbangz]

All i need is an extra inch of vert to dunk😭 the ball js dont wanna hit inside the net,

Do you got any advice for dunking with your non dominant hand because for some reason I jump my highest off my right foot despite me being right handed

[@danielegetemeyer5769]

What is your opinion on vert training / plyometrics in a pool or just in general water as resistance?

[@dalastnoble]

are shin splints during jumps a result of weaker tendons or weaker muscles?

[@alvikorlov]

Both

[@mcshuffles4032]

I’ve seen a lot of people say it’s a problem with load management of plyometric contacts. Obviously get stronger and more stiff+elastic tendons but I would lower how many plyometric contacts you are doing and monitor pain and slowly increase contacts/intensity while keeping pain low.

[@sipaz73]

Neglect of tibialis. Do toe raises

How much do you think achilles lenght affects vertical jump? Do people with a longer achilles have a higher potential than people with short achilles?

[@noahhannon2305]

Stiffness is much more important than length

[@carsforpeople3351]

@@noahhannon2305It depends. If the athlete isn’t strong enough to fully extend his stiff tendons, it’s much worse than having less stiff tendons.

If you can do 300 pounds for a 1 rep max you can probably move 305 pounds but maybe not lock it out. You have to do more for a weight you can't lift sometimes.

[@josephk.4200]

Sounds like a great way to get injured. Add more volume, would be my advice there.

[@Qerti100]

Would hamstring flexibility help increase your vertical?

[@LL-rc2ol]

yes if it impedes how much u can hinge ur hips to a certain point.you only need to be able to touch your toes maximum this is to avoid any back pain. affected my 2 foot bounce not sure about 1 foot tho

[@JohnEvans]

Lol no

[@IsaiahRivera1]

Fun story, I signed up for ATG back in 2018. Did extreme levels of stretching every day and became the most flexible I ever have. Jumped lower lol. I like having just enough hamstring flexibility to be able to pull from the floor, anything past that and I’ve seen a negative effect on my vertical.

[@Qerti100]

@@IsaiahRivera1 Oh because when it's tighter it has more elasticity right?

[@timo_2236]

I think y’all need to dumb it down a lil bit so we can understand it better

[@timothydavis2568]

I dont think this information should be dumbed down, but it might be easier to understand graphs and drawings

[@mcshuffles4032]

I won’t lie this stuff can be complex if this is the first time hearing it but anything you don’t understand you could Google it and come back. I doubt they will put graphs as it’s a lot more work and they have other stuff to focus of higher performance.

[@IsaiahRivera1]

We’re gonna buy a whiteboard for the vids, it should help understand the concepts wayyyy more. I know for me personally I didn’t understand a lot of this until I saw it represented visually

[@JohnEvans]

I am buying the white board rn thanks for the reminder

[@Leonidas-eu9bb]

The SSC is indeed not magic. Good athletes can stretch their tendon without any momentum just from a explosive concentric contraction. Longer tendons help a lot.
