[@DeepSouthBlackMan]

Hey bro guess what? I am gonna work out at the my schools gym which is free and do these exercises. Man I am gonna have MJ hops!! Thanks so much for makin this vid. God Bless You!!!

[@MaxPFitness]

Way to stay positive bro!

[@droptopsixfo]

Good exercises man! Make sure when you do squats that your knees aren't coming forward. Check yourself in the mirror from the side to help your form

[@MaxPFitness]

Thanks bro and you can do it!

[@gregtdmorrison]

Thanks!

[@MaxPFitness]

Yes that would help. Just go as heavy as you can while keeping a perfect form. Make sure taht you do them as fast as possible too. Keep it in the 6-8 rep range brother.

[@captainamin97]

Thx for replying dude your videos are great! ;)

[@DeepSouthBlackMan]

Hey great vid bro I wish my momma would buy one of those 45 pound bars with some plates I would have a 40 inch vertical but atleast I have God given strength and I currently have a natural 28 1/2 inch vertical

[@huntergeer43]

i can get net about three quarters of the way up and I'm 5'5 in 6 grade this will definitely win me the competition thanks

[@MaxPFitness]

Yes this is safe as long as you have the correct form.

[@MaxPFitness]

That actually pretty good. just make sure you do them fast with a proper form so you hit your fast muscle fibers.

[@TSchultz971]

I seen something about doing weighted step ups kind of like a squat onto and back off of a bench, and I was wondering if it would be a good idea to do those if I was doing the Barbell Lunges, or if that would be a leg killer. Definentaly doing the squats and deadlifts; great video.

[@MaxPFitness]

Yes but while going really fast still have the perfect form. If you do them slow you will still increase your vertical jump. However, you will not increase it as fast as you would if you did squats fast. The reason for that is the vertical jump is a very fast movement and you need to do it fast in order to convert your plyometrics training into your jump and help the strength of your legs make you jump higher.

[@MaxPFitness]

@Bhamhops Practice jumping with the ball so that way you would get used to having the ball in your hands.

[@MaxPFitness]

@hanconx For sure bro. You should see results!!!

[@MaxPFitness]

Good luck bro! When you rest is when your vertical will increase :)

[@kackvogel187]

Nice Work Bro ! How much weight do you use for the squats ?

[@MaxPFitness]

@AgedES335 Thanks brotha. Yea I usually go way lower on squats but in this video I had to talk so I wasnt fully concentrating on it. Thanks for the tip and Rippetoe is nice too.

[@MaxPFitness]

@outlawshooter750 I trained three times a week.

[@MaxPFitness]

Yea it could be a good workout. However,, I would suggest using dumbells because that way you will be able to balance yourself better on the bench.

[@MaxPFitness]

Time frame will be hard to determine since everyone is different. But if you hit the weights and mix it with plyometrics than you should see real results soon.

[@MaxPFitness]

Well you have test out the weight to see what you feel comfortable working out with brother. Dont go so heavy that you mess up your form, but at the same time dont go so light that you can be throwing up the weight like its nothing. Feel out the weight you can get a good workout with while maintaining the correct form.

[@MaxPFitness]

@Bhamhops 6'1 without shoes 6'2 with.

[@hanconx]

i'm also 6'1 w/o shoes and can only touch rim on a 10ft rim but i never did any weight exercises so i hope i would see gains from doing these (and hopefully dunk :D)

[@MaxPFitness]

Try box squats.

[@MaxPFitness]

@danielnaumoski2 There is no timeline because everyone is different. However, if you workout for 4 weeks and take a week off then you should see noticeable gains.

[@MaxPFitness]

Yes bro and try my program called The Vertical Jump Truth and they will do wonders to your hops. The link to it is in the description of this video.

[@MaxPFitness]

I got it from a friend. But Im pretty sure you can find it almost anywhere.

[@MaxPFitness]

5-8 reps

[@MaxPFitness]

Gotta do them bro for your glutes and hamstrings. Just make sure you keep a clean form.

[@MaxPFitness]

When you were doing those exercises did you eat clean and did you get the proper rest? Doing squats has a great impact on your vertical so it is when you rest that your vertical jump actually goes up. that is why football players weigh so much and jump way higher than nba players when it comes to measuring their vertical jump. When you workout your legs its also important to do low reps and do them fast because the vertical jump movements is a very fast movement.

[@MaxPFitness]

Yea no problem bro. That is too many repetitions. Try doing maybe 3x6 or 5x5. You want to work on your fast twitch muscle fibers and not on your slow twitch muscle fibers. That is why sprinters usually are way more explosive than long distance runners.

[@Jamrockballen]

im 5'11 and can grab rim. Do this and I will jump higher I cant wait!!!!

[@MaxPFitness]

Bro yes you will. You will have to increase your strength and speed first. Check out my program called The Vertical Jump Truth. the link to it is in the description of this video.

[@yfz450911]

also toe raises help very much, and you need to be getting alittle lower yo

[@MaxPFitness]

First I would definitively get it checked out by the doctor to make sure everything is safe. Than make sure your form is correct and use lighter weight until you have a perfect form.

[@WALKAA___]

im 3 weeks into the program and i know my legs have gotten alot stronger but i havent tested my vert yet...i was going to wait after my 4th week

[@captainamin97]

Hi thx for giving out the info but I can't even touch the rim how long should it take to get to the rim if I train properly with weights plus plyometrics and of course proper nutrition (I'm pretty lean)

[@TheSpaztic0ne]

I'm 5'9 and can grab the a 10 foot ring and I've never had to do this stuff :P. Only thing i ever did was run and jump. But hopefully this helps me :P

[@MaxPFitness]

@dobyziilo Thanks bro!

[@MATT111MARTIN]

ok

[@MaxPFitness]

Enough so that you can do a full squat with correct form at least 8 times.

[@vickebin]

hey wassup man. ive been watching your videos and was trying to see if you could help me out. I'm 197lbs about 5'6 or 5'7 and i can nip the rim and have some what grabbed the rim before on good days. I'm not too sure how much i can squat. You think you got a program for me?

[@MaxPFitness]

About 6'1" but i first dunked at 5'11"

[@MaxPFitness]

Yea bro you should check out my program called The Vertical Jump Truth. The link to it is in the description of this video and I guarantee that you will dunk after using it.

[@MaxPFitness]

Squat 1.5x your body weight and start plyometrics. You will dunk soon bro!

[@marcuswiley23]

I am 15 how many can I do a day that will help my vertical I can get the ball in every once in a while

[@realiQc]

How can i train my jump if I cant reache a gym , you know any exercises can i do it at home ?

[@ThomasKellar]

Would you recommend these workouts to a high jumper? My high jump PR is 5'10 and I'm hoping to get AT LEAST 6'0 once the season starts. Been looking for a workout to get my height up. Also one more question, how long until you think I will begin noticing results?

[@EricLesher]

Weird. Since I was 15 I have been doing plyometrics for vertical (im 21 now). I got close to 40 vertical at one point. When I was 20 I had this phase where I was tired of being a skinny dude and wanted to bulk up and lifted weights (which I never had in my life before) every other day. This included squats, leg press, exc. I went from 150 lbs to 185 and was still pretty lean. But my vertical decreased about a half a foot. For the last 4 months I stopped lifting and its back to where it was.

[@MaxPFitness]

Hey check out my specific vertical jump training channel. It is called TheVerticalJumpTruth.

[@MaxPFitness]

Deadlifts and squats are very important bro. Check out my dunk training program called The Vertical Jump Truth and you will dunk guaranteed. The link is in the description bro.
