Jump-centric Plyometric Training

Monday, April 28, 2008

Too little emphasis is placed on plyometric conditioning and the effect it has on jump development. A strong vertical/horizontal/plyo jump is an innate survival skill. And something we should practice frequently. This weeks trio of bodyweight workouts will assist in the development of the groups of muscle responsible for explosive jumping movements.

The power for this jump was generated from plyometric contraction and release from the first bench step.


Today's Workout

5 rounds for time.

75 toe jumps (Think of jump-roping with no rope) or single jump ropes
15 Tuck Jumps (Jump and pull your knees to your chest mid-jump)
