Top 3 Lifts To JUMP HIGHER

[@isaacpage5949]

Dude we are with you when you finally get your first official dunk be sure to record it

[@Hobe23]

Thanks! Will do!

[@powerbounce3445]

I'm surprised i found this small channel. He is of: 1) Same ethnicity (Pressumably chinese) 2) Same height (5'9) 3) Similar lifting abilities (2x bw squats and deadlifts) 4) Similar vert (34 inch) 5) WE BOTH WANT TO DUNK AND HAVENT GOTTEN IT YET Just wow.

[@Hobe23]

That's awesome to hear! It's great to find someone whos in the same position as you. Still haven't got a legit dunk yet, but next year is coming.

[@abrahamseo2825]

He’s way higher than 34 inches bruh. My vert is 34 inches as well as I can only touch the rim

[@adamberg655]

Love your channel! Wish I found it sooner. You'll get that Dunk soon!

[@Hobe23]

Thanks man!

[@P0rQpine]

During the clean, try to get your triceps parallel to the ground. Cheers man. Love your vids

[@Hobe23]

Thanks for the tip! I noticed that too. This was when I was just getting into cleans, so my form wasn't any good.

[@P0rQpine]

@@Hobe23 I struggle just as bad dude 😂😂 its maybe the lats are tight. Gotta foam roll prior

[@Hobe23]

Haha, what's funny is I just got into foam rolling and it does wonders. It's amazing. We just gotta keep working at it 💪.

[@ninjapacquiao15]

Lots of good info! Trying to get my first dunk as well. Good luck man ✌️

Hey thanks! Good luck to you too!

@@mikeycoronel4192 Ask away :)

[@mikeycoronel4192]

@@Hobe23 do you need to have strong arms to perform the power cleans? For me when I perform them my arms hurt alot. I'm curious if there's a special technique to use less of your arm muscle.

[@Hobe23]

@@mikeycoronel4192 Well to a degree I think you need arms, but the whole posterior chain is the most important for the power cleans. I am currently doing cleans for the 3 rep ranges. I suggest you try lower weights if your arm is hurting. A lot of the times it's better to start at a lower weight and progressively overload so your body can adjust. It also may be your form. My form is still pretty garbage, but I'm a lot better since I started. From the information alone, I wouldn't know 100% what's causing the pain in your arms.

[@Tyrese-hm6bs]

I’m 15 and I’m 5’10, I use to be able to grab rim but I injured my knee and lost about 3 inches on my vert and Can only just barely touch rim now. I want to get back to my old self and dunk by my junior year

[@Hobe23]

Hey, just keep working at it. Make sure you rest well too! You can do it fam.

[@henryle3977]

aye no worries man just really focus on the rest component and getting back to the strength you used to be at. We all on a journey

[@Tyrese-hm6bs]

Henry Le Yesh I’ve been getting better and focusing on my knee health

[@kimbertumen4382]

Rest your knee first you still have time left and you will still grow. Have patience dont rush yourself

[@rickyeldiablo800]

Couple things with your clean: - don't jerk the bar up with your arms, keep the bar close to your body, drive it up in a straight line and once its at the apex drop underneath it - fix your wrist mobility so you catch the bar in your finger tips so there is less pressure on your wrists

[@Hobe23]

Hey, thanks for your input. I've also noticed that I used my arm way to much in my clean. If you look at my recent videos I've improved my form a lot. A lot of the clips of me cleaning is when I first started incorporating it to my routine. But, I still have much to improve.

[@rickyeldiablo800]

Hobé great stuff mate, keep going!!

[@Hobe23]

@@rickyeldiablo800 Thanks!

[@danielfeng8938]

Where did you learn the teachnique of the clean from?

[@Hobe23]

Pretty much youtube. My form is pretty bad in this video, but at the end it gets a lot better. I still need to improve my form.

[@BC-hw7wt]

I’m just saying when you’re squatting you use more of your right leg. That’s what I saw because your hip shifted towards the right so I just don’t want you to like slip a disc or something in your lower back. You’re right with how it helps your vertical just be careful with your form.

[@espinozapy]

Hey man! Love your video. I would suggest to train Front Squats aswell and get those elbows UP, let the bar rest on your upper chest, and shoulders. Get more mobility in your shoulders for that exercise. Also I would recommend trying plyometric exercises, or at least using standard exercises but making them more explosive... "stretch-shortening cycle" - train your muscles and nervous system to accelerate the contraction of muscles. Try it out and see if it fits you 😉🤙🏽, if don't continue with standard training, every one is diferent.

[@Hobe23]

Thanks for the input! I don't really do front squats as a standalone lift, but I will definitely start incorporating them once I get back to the gym because it helps my clean. I already have Plyometrics in my routine! I just made a quarantine plyometric workout, so we don't lose gains during these times. Thanks!

[@17jk65]

I have a few questions 1. How much do you weigh? 2. Isn't highbar squats or front squats more effective? 3. What do you think about snatches and jerks? Actually those 2 are quite difficult to perform in a regular gym so just asking lol..

[@Hobe23]

1. I currently weight (70 kg) 154lbs, but when I was jumping the highest I was (68.5 - 69 kg) 150lb. 2. More effective in targeting thighs, yes. I like back squats, because it targets the overall strength better (you can lift more) alongside the with the glutes. It also has bette hip extension. But, the front squat is definitely better for cleans. 3. I think snatch and jerks are great! I think they target overall power which is great for vertical, but the clean is enough for me because it focus more of the lower body power with the triple extension. And, yes you are right those are difficult movements. I've never tried snatching and jerks from cleans myself, but I would love to get into it. Thanks for the question!

[@kulhrada6900]

Are there any exercises to increase vertical without weights? Pls answer this I don’t know what to do, I don’t have weights

[@Von199X]

How do ytou measure your vetical?

How can I train for vertical jump without weights?

[@Hobe23]

Plyos, Speed Training and a lot of isometrics are great for vertical jump training.

[@luytluyt4529]

How tall are u man, just curious nice vid tho

[@Hobe23]

I'm 5'9 or 176 cm. Thanks!

[@hallburger5961]

How much weight should we use for the clean?

[@Hobe23]

The weight should be how much you can lift for 1-3 reps. There is no definitive answer cuz everyone has different levels of strength. The important part is progressively overloading. I started off with 25lb and moved up to a plate in 2 weeks? But, this might be because my compound lifts were already generally strong. Just make sure you are giving your max effort in each lift and really focus in lifting the weight efficiently.

[@espinozapy]

I would suggest to ask someone about proper tecnique or watch a video about it. Then trying it out and always train with weight you can handle with proper tecnique. If you're struggling with your tecnique lower the weight a little bit and get stronger... don't risk injurying yourself, ok?

[@sahilagrawal4255]

How did u build up your weight? currently, I can only do my body weight, not 2x it. Where did you start and how'd you get to 2x your body weight? Best of luck with dunking!

[@Hobe23]

progressive overload. Started around 25-35?

[@airskill2720]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@seofilipino]

We call it trap bar, but its tomato - tomatow lol they're the same. You need to fix your back while DL its arching, could injure you in the long run.

[@prashangurung91]

[@CoolColJ]

How much do you weigh?

[@Hobe23]

I currently vary around (146 lbs - 152 lbs). In metric system its around (66 kg - 69 kg). I'm usually at the low end when my water weight is low and a breakfast or a snack in.

[@mastermindpatrick5232]

I think tim grovers jump attack could actually help you.. Bruthaa

[@Hobe23]

On my shelf for sure.

[@rdabdao3535]

STOP SAYING TRIPLE EXTENSION. TRIPLE EXTENSION MEANS YOU EXTEND YOUR KNEES HIPS AND ANKLES. YOU DON’T EXTENS YOUR ANKLES IN A SQUAT OR A DEADLIFT

[@Hobe23]

Sure, you don't achieve full extension of the ankles, legs and hips, but they do extend together. Which is what we are trying to get more efficient at. If you don't extend your ankles slightly in a deadlift or a squat, not sure what your doing then.

[@kareemtraboulsi682]

Your deadlift for is so bad you are going to hurt yourself please change it

[@Hobe23]

Yep, you're absolutely right. My form was trash. Working on it atm.
