    Use these advanced plyometrics and jump training exercises in your program to jump higher, run faster, and enhance sports performance. This video is brought to you by Cody Bidlow of ATHLETE.X. Please subscribe for more!
    In order to run faster and jump higher, athletes need to be able to develop explosive power. Depending on the needs of the athlete, the exercises used to develop these qualities should be done, in some part, in the force vector of the athlete's sport.
    Sprinters should focus on jumps for distance and jumps for height, since vertical and horizontal forces are crucial in sprinting. A volleyball player would need to focus more on vertical and lateral movement, while a football player would need to focus evenly on all of it.
    Incorporate jump training like this in your program in small doses, increasing the amounts used over time. Every few weeks, take a down week where the jump or plyometric training volume is heavily reduced, ensuring that your body has adequate recovery from this very intense method of training.

    Hey Cody! I notice you switch shoes. When you're jumping/sprinting in the Adipowers. How do they feel?

    • @ATHLETE.X

      Ian D Tran They aren't bad for the jumps, but overall I'd say I prefer to wear my Adizero Tempos (running shoes). If the gym is busy though I don't want to waste time or take up space swapping shoes during a lift - jump complex. For most jumps it works out fine to wear the lifting shoes, but if I want to work on the ball of the foot for a specific reason then I'll throw on running shoes.

    Is it ok to use weight lifting shoes to do plyos?

    • @ATHLETE.X
      @ATHLETE.X  Před 5 lety

      I prefer running shoes, but have done them many times in lifting shoes. The impact is a bit greater and it inhibits the Achilles’ tendon from stretching as much due to the hard heel on lifting shoes, so consider those factors. If that’s your only option, though, you can do it as long as it’s not causing injury 💪🏽

    At what point would you consider an athlete ready for single-leg plyos?

    • @streetgamer1000
      @streetgamer1000 Před 5 lety +1

      Not an expert or coach here but I read something from the Russian plyometrics books stating that (rephrasing)"an athlete must be able to squat at least twice his/her bodyweight then he/she can be introduced to shock/plyometrics training"
      Edit - pronoun

    • @ATHLETE.X

      I would go based both off their strength levels and their competency in landing during exercises like stiff leg hops, 2 leg depth drops (without the jump), and single leg stiff ankle hops.
      If they can manage to land well, and look springy during single leg stiff leg/ankle hops, you could attempt a small single leg depth jump such as a 6” drop.
      You can do single leg jumps without a drop any time, such as a normal single leg box jump. It’s when you have the drop/shock method that you need to be more careful.

      @@ATHLETE.X Agreed coach. I do think somehow the squat doesn't accentuate nor train ankle stiffness and that there's a way to prepare for plyometrics without achieving a relatively high squat numbers in the first place.

      Yeah this is true!

    Hey Cody Bidlow, when are you going to come back to competitions ?

    • @ATHLETE.X
      @ATHLETE.X  Před 7 lety +3

      Not sure at the moment. My goal is to achieve consistently good times in practice before I compete again. The last couple seasons I had, every race felt like I was about to get injured.
      I am starting to see progress in my split times in practice, so now I just need to stay healthy and keep at it!

      If you haven't done a nutrition video already, then it would be great if you could make a video about it! carbs for sprinters and reducing body fat and stuff

    • @ATHLETE.X
