Jump Higher Off Two Feet! Two Foot Jumping Instant Increase!

[@teddy67ruxpin]

Kiripiti Bowden _It was good to hear that you're using it also. It was my 2days training now and I kinda like it and see good results. I like its training video cause it shows me exactly how to do proper exercise and stretch._

[@03timbalandmvp]

Hey Adam- nice video! I was learning the other day in a volleyball class that in the second last step to bound in landing "heel-toe". I was wondering when paralleling this idea here (i.e. to the second last step of the approach) do you recommend this idea of landing "heel-toe" as you 'bound in' to gather yourself?

[@AndreyPLukashuk]

Which is better? Jumping off one leg or two legs? I used to be a one legged jumper and had knee issues with my jumping (left) knee. I started jumping both legs instead and don't nearly have as bad knee pains, which is better? Was I just jumping wrong?

[@21kahl21]

what would u recommend for a workout i can do at home to increase my vertical?

[@bsjmako]

I love all the info you give out, it's really helped me a lot so far. My schools tryouts are this Monday and Tuesday coming up, I can't wait to show off how much better i've gotten from your videos. If you could post a stellar core strengthening workout video it'd be very much appreciated! Thanks again for everything.

[@homerun55555555]

How far are your knees supposed to bend when you jump? Like are they supposed to go over your toes?

[@CODFamer]

So do I...Do you have any videos of you dunking and how tall are you?

[@wongkit2006]

I feel awkward jumping off two feet... are we supposed to jump higher off two feet (compared to one-foot jump)? Thank you for all your lessons and advice on KZbin!

[@championz4Life]

Adam, Do you think its pretty good to grab rim at age 13? And im only 5'6. And is it true you jump higher off of one foot?

[@dylanservis8838]

I have trouble jumping with a ball. Can you make a video on the technique for that

[@jimmyeatworldorelse]

on your last steps (take off), are you on your forefoot?

[@stretchexpert]

2 hands 2 feet can't be beat! great work!

[@ShootTheShot]

This is something you can definitely overcome!

[@kph97]

Hey do you have a video on how to stretch before jumping

[@FinesseMagic]

I want to be a nba player when i grow up and i was wondering if u had any jumping drills that involve no equipment. Reply to this comment if u have a drill i could try. Thanks

[@kobewinkler304]

Also I jump a lot better off two then I do with one. Which one should I focus on for higher vertical

[@WizdredKhalifa]

do the APL's actually make a difference? Im just wondering because im considering getting them.

[@SomeGuyOnlineCJ97]

do the shoes you have on really work?

[@Powertothenation]

Thanks man. My main problem was my core. I was always leaned forward and going forward instead of upwards. Thanks you.

[@jakekin21]

are you still giving advice on videos of jumping? because i would like your help, im 14 and can touch rim but i know im not jumping correctly.

[@ShootTheShot]

@ezoen I'd reconsider what I talked about... though it sounds easy and "vague" these things take months to learn and years (if ever) to master... There are no secrets, just proper technique, and proper strength and explosiveness... I apologize if you were expecting something different!

[@ShootTheShot]

you should do it... I'll watch and see if you can show me something I can teach my D-1 and professional athletes :)

[@itzAcostaLBC]

How tall are you just wondering great video by the way

[@madballerz2000]

hey Adam, I would like to ask. how much can you squat?

[@musax3797]

If I upload a video of me jumping can you critique and tell me where and what I need to work on?

[@jft2nd]

Where was this filmed

[@datalaforge]

So I'm 29, 5'10", and haven't dunked in about 5 years. I'm getting back into basketball and want to work on my vertical. I've only ever been able to dunk of of one leg (I was a long/high jumper in HS so maybe that's why.) Any suggestions? Great vid.

[@VicMackey909]

how do you feel about the apl shoes?

[@markcbusta]

hey so when i try jumping off two feet off a run, it really doesnt feel comfortable. I think its cuz ive always been a one foot jumper. Any advice on that besides jumping more? Oh and i always chop my feet before i go up for a jump. Any techniques to stop that?

[@kighzerlankmann8113]

What are good exercises or work outs i should do daily that can benefit or improve my high jump? Does anyone know?

[@mihailangelospantouvakis2779]

Drupada 123 go search in google vertical exercises and im sure you will find something

[@kurtnorthcott]

LOL he talks about increasing your vertical but he is wearing APL shoes which have springs in them which are banned in the nba because they instantly increase vertical

[@RobertPolk11]

Hey I am 17 about 5'7 or 5'8 and have a friend that is dunking and he is shorter than. Is there any conditioning or workouts that i need to do, so i can dunk ? P.S. I am not even touching the rim i am like a centimeter away from touching it.

[@sloumanuel92]

@Vertfreak101dotcom Great video! Can I ask a question. I tend to jump higher with my left leg when jumping off of one leg. I noticed in all 2 feet dunking vids, they tend to take one huge step before they plant themselves and jump. Should my strong leg be the one i use when taking the big step? Will that give me a slightly higher vert, or it does not matter? Thanks:))

[@ShootTheShot]

@Luraj7 It's kinda like being left handed or right handed with writing... You typically get use to one or the other, but doesn't mean you can't learn both.

[@tyrucker389]

I'm 5'6 and I can grab the net at school but I can't grab rim what can I do to improve and how long would it take for me to grab the rim hope you can help I'd really appreciate it

[@ShootTheShot]

@TheKingSovereign Exactly with your last stride from your plant being typically longer than your approach steps... reason being is you have built such momentum that you need to cover a bit of ground to successfully take it vertical... They key isn't the distance of your 3rd stride, but the SPEED. You do not want to lose momentum, but at the same time you do not want your core to give way and have forward lean at take off.

[@ShootTheShot]

@Zeeploox be more observant. I have atleast 20 videos on here of my jumping,a s well as each part of the technique. I give you examples from an athlete that is learning here for many reasons. My technique is way to advanced for you to really get an understanding of it by watching because of the speed I use. I'm sorry my "FREE" videos don't suffice for you. You don't need to be spoon fed here. This video has helped a TON of people, use this info or don't but I think I do a pretty good job

[@ShootTheShot]

2009 Powerade Dunker of the year... and 7x ACC High Jump Champion...

[@TheKingSovereign]

so when I'm about to take of do I have to have my second to last two steps my longest too? or I just have to have quicker steps the rest of the way and my last to steps be just to long quick strides and explode upward?

[@HarrySandals]

I am a 15 year old 5' 6" jumper and am inches away from the rim jumping off 2 feet. When I jump I feel like I'm not maxing out my jump and I feel like I can jump higher. Any suggestions?

[@ShootTheShot]

@workhard9 Adam was a 7x Division 1 ACC High Jump Champion and Olympic Qualifier in the event. He concentrated on track in college, and didn't play bball

[@ShootTheShot]

@babyheat23 You don't sit back like in a chair, but you dont fall forward either. Typically around a 1/4 to 1/2 squat position. Pretty much going down applies power but decreases speed... the idea is to find how far down you can go, while keeping the explosive speed necessary to go vertical. It can vary based on the athletes make up.

[@magnusisyomomma]

YO ADAM!!! THANKS A LOT MAN, this jumping technique helped me out a lot man!!!!! usually when i would try to jump for a dunk, i would often hurt my knees but then when i learnt your technique it made dunking a damn lot easier and im extremely appreciative and I also noticed professional basketball players use this exact technique like derrick rose for example, thanks man!!!!!

[@waldercius8806]

Do u jump off your heels of flat feet?

[@MessiahWins]

If I posted a video of me jumping and touching rim could you comment and tell me what im doing wrong?

[@yungtrent93]

I'm 5'10 and I can dunk like no tomorrow. Went to state for high jump. What's a good exercise to help me my freshmen yr in college

[@PhotoReggie]

Hey guys.. I can get to the rim easy. But have mayor problems doing it with a ball. Because i use my arms to get in the air, but cant use them anymore when holding the ball... any tips for that?

[@ShootTheShot]

@Tommmaaah Your typical strength program (squats, Deadlifts, bench, Military press) and weighted core work, including weighted leg lifts, and weighted planks/stability movements should get you on the right track.

[@Tom-ul3rw]

It's 100% preference. Some people are way better at 1 foot jumping, others 2 foot jumping. Whichever one you're more comfortable doing is the one you should be practicing.

[@ShootTheShot]

80% approval?

[@davidmiller5332]

hey wierd thing iv been doing calf raises and squats for like 1 week now and i ested on my basketball hoop i can touch rim now and before i was atleast 3 inches underneath.rim. i am amazed by my results

[@basketballballer1976]

hey adam i have bad jumpers knee problems i rest a lot and put ice on it i started to touch rim instead of middle of the net when i saw one of your videos and i kept overdoing it and i started getting pain in my left knee does bad jumpers knee decrease your vertical and i think i still have the strength in me and i cant get it with bad jumpers knee pain but i can get rim without the pain

[@longethau9471]

touch the celling or reach for something high and land down in squating position it improved my vertical in by 3 inches in like 4 weeeks and walking lunges help too i do these jumping drills and im onlt 13 and 5'0

[@SparkiNgFLasH7]

What do you mean by not dropping your hips

[@janilee5063]

no matter how i jump but i cannot jump hifher any easy tips for jumping higher?

[@jjstephen600]

Hey man...I would really appreciate if you read this, and respect of being a greater high jump champ:) First off im 5,6 and i Jump from both feet, i swear when i take of one foot its like i jump a FOOT less, i barly touch the rim with one foot and two feet i can almost grab the rim. and any advice to how i can increase my vertical by 5 inches? Thank you..

[@king20192003]

is that apl shoes?

[@zJigSawPVR]

i jump higher off one leg than two. im 5'8'' and i can touch rim. is that an average or above average jumper?

[@rawbq]

Is it possible that you can read minds :p?Yesterday evening I thought of sending you a PM on how to jump off two feet, because I'm a one-foot jumper and want to be able to master both methods and today I opened up my mailbox and saw the newsletter with this video. Great man, thank you! One question, do two-foot-jumpers really have a benefit over one-foot jumpers? Because they can use twice the strength, but then again, they don't have the advantage of the leverage foot which happens in the 1ft..

[@markygotcarkey]

hey great vid!! Im gonna try this out even though i normally jump off with 1 foot for everything in bball. So is jumping off with both feet always going to be higher than jumping off with only 1 though?? cuz i wanna jump higher in the game but it just doesnt feel natural for me when i try jumping off with 2 feet. neeed hellppp plz. thx!!

[@AnaheimHockey08]

I've been working my thighs out with jump squats for a couple weeks now and before that I couldn't touch rim now I barely touched it once and when I have a ball I can barely tap and I just don't get what I am doing wrong any ideas?

[@RangoIcyCresent]

im 15 n im 5‘9 able to touch the rim now , i usually use two feet to jump. how can i increase my vertical ,any program?

[@mmmaarcus1067]

is there actually something in your legs that makes you a one foot jumper or two foot jumper, because my one foot is a lot higher than my two. Is this only because I am getting more momentum. 14 5'10 almost dunking

[@ShootTheShot]

@Georgekwok Good Luck to you. If you don't get value from this video, something is wrong. Thats why I work with serious athletes and not recreational ones like yourself.

[@Maor2Ronaldo]

Hey guys I'm 6'3" 205 pound do I have to lose weight to jump higher?

[@Ammo4055]

How do you personally train to get 50" virtical?

[@15MeloMVP]

What is better?! 1 Foot or 2 Feet?

[@xxkevin3861xx]

are you wearing APL's Adam

[@digge546]

You should make a video like this again except holding a ball

[@IQspn]

good vid bro. i can tell u a good teacher. keep it up.

[@sarthakbansal8315]

how do u build core strength??

[@redberrey1]

@Vertfreak101dotcom Thanks for the reply, I actually had a question in your videos you say your last two steps should be your quickest and you should not get low at all and to keep straight legs right? Well do these techniques apply to 2 footed jumping or is that only for 1 footed I only ask because the Jump Manual guy said you should exxagerate and I cant tell which is better

[@mistertrapmoney978]

How tall would you say u r

[@shabalabadindong555]

do apls work?

[@aLakayCSS]

When i jump off two feet, i tend to jump more with my right leg and not getting my left leg power into the jump. how can i fix that?

[@AndreHarvin12]

is it possible to be explosive off one leg jumping ONLY?? Im 18, 6'1" i can get my head to the bottom lip of the rim , but only when i leap off one leg. I try take off on 2 feet but i just feel very un-athletic, its frustrating. any advice?

[@SincerelyPostlight]

Hey man what's your FB? I'm currently struggling with my volleyball approach. It's a two foot jump. Hopefully you can help me out.

[@LegendaryGSP]

[@1Vurgas1]

[@br619bb]

[@sarthakbansal8315]

[@SEVENFOOT]

im 15 and 6"8 and can dunk off two easily but when I go off one i dont seem to have any balance how do I get better balance off one

[@jizzlejay21]

Im 17 and 6'0" without the ball i easily grab rim off one foot and off two and straight off of standing still but with the ball cant seem to get the ball to go in the basket, any pointers?

[@kobewinkler304]

Hi I'm Kobe I'm 5'11" I have dunked before on my good days but I need/want to be more consistent but football and my job take most my time up is there anything fast workouts and how do I get high enough to start to add some moves into my dunk?

[@jherc3391]

Get some brown or black paint...either should work. Now paint your skin...presto more hops better dunks. ;) your welcome.

[@kobewinkler304]

+J Herc lol I'm half black and half white lol so how much paint do I use 😂😂

[@samboydalawis9401]

im 5'6 i can touch the rim but cant dunk but i think if i do training i can...some tips?

[@ShootTheShot]

@LilDaley23 Thanks man! Alot of people can dunk without using proper technique, but what they aren't doing is jumping their highest. Jumping higher can benefit us all!

[@flyingpeacockful]

adam im 5"10 180lbs i play basketball at least an hour a day and i use your tecnique i do toe raises but im just not seeing the results because i can only grab a 9"5 rim and dunk a 9"2 rim any advice for me man

[@hennas87]

Can Chan dunk? obviously I don't know but he doesn't look the type who can jump really high, am I wrong?

[@MollyJDuck]

Good Video! Thanks a ton.

[@deejay7530]

Please answer me this. I am about 6''2 and when i jump off one leg, i can get my head about half way up the net. when i jump off two i can only just reach the net with my head. is it possible that i can get my head to half way or even further when i come off two feet? I feel like it is my form when i jump off two... because I'muse to jumping off one. can you help me?

[@amos12345678910]

hey i am 13 this year and i have been training for almost 8 months, i have done many research on explosive trainings but i am still not improving as fast as i expected .Though i increase my vertical ,but i can feel that it is not at my max yet .Please help me as im confused whether it is my training problems or just my age .thanksXD

[@parker9946]

My problem is i can BARELY touch rim with a one-step jump but when i run or sprint towards the basket i get the same results, My goal is to dunk by next year. But what would help to get some fast results? Im 5'11 or 6 depending on shoes.

[@joebill5136]

Learn to jump. A full sprint is often inefficient and you definitely won't be strong enough to convert that full sprint too vertical power. Their isn't any super fast results, I mean you can learn to jump from this guy and get a couple inches, but hardcore results come from training. Get a gym membership and squat deep. Search stronglifts or starting strength and try that out and go from their. It will help out on strength a lot and without a good strength base, you can't hope to improve a lot.

[@101supermike]

Thank you for the vid just tried the techenic and i got up much higher thank you

[@laronjames100]

Is this Sac State

[@DirtyonXBL]

i do the same bbut with rebounding or blocking. i get up way higher than with the ball
