Proper Exercise Technique



This exercise is very crucial for creating a higher vertical jump, quickness and explosion for athletes. Begin by starting in a similar squatting position with your knees slightly bent and your back straight. Jump up with both feet while tucking your knees into your chest. You should be using the motion of arms to really help that jump get higher and higher. Return to starting position and repeat.
