JUMP TRAINING - emphasise different jump components to jump longer and higher

very informative video, thanks for posting this

The athlete in the green shirt at 4:42 does have good bouce, however from my perspective it seems that he will need to improve his form. If you notice, his knees cave inward, which from my experience is very bad for your knees, and will likely increase the chances of injury/constant knee pain. If you take a look at the girl from 4:52, her knees are in a much better position (that is bending straight and not caving in). If you can get the boy in green to have his form more similar to that, I believe it will benefit him greatly in both the short and long term of his career.

Headphonex good spot and this is something to work on in his case. He'd never done the exercise before and I was startled by his jump! The girl has a gymnastics background and with it better form, as it were. Thank you for you comment.

How many times should you work in these drills a month?

[@Johnshepherdtrackcoach]

Reborned V Just answered a similar question asking volume on a weekly basis ... approx once a week for the specific eccentric unit and then two to three times a week there would be other types of plyos such as those shown, plus take off drills and skips and drop jumps for example. This will be the case for most of the year - with plyos done all year and only the volume dropping. In-season probably two seasons a week (eccentric and plyo). Note though I tend to do small-ish doses of the exercises regularly. This way we adapt And recovery and build up resilience Thanks for the comment

How many times a week to train these

[@Johnshepherdtrackcoach]

Fliperzz we would in average include the specific eccentric work once a week and more ‘traditional’ plyos two to three times a week in small-ish doses. Hope that helps
