I see guys with no calves jump the highest and run the fastest
I don't know I see guys with no calves jump the highest
So body builders with calves can jump they can't tho

My knee hurts when I bend. I tried your free 1 week program (day 1) my knee felt good 👍. I can bend my knee without pain. Thanks man.
Dope man!! You’re gonna feel amazing by the end of the week
Same how u get rid of it tho
@@Kiilaahcam isometrics daily and proper warm ups before jump / lifting
love this video format
This is actually really good. I am definitely not doing as many calf raises now. Thanks Isaiah!
Great vid! Informative and hilarious at the same time 😂
This is such a good video
Thanks Isaiah, awesome video
No problem!
we need more vids like this to learn more about jumping higher workout myths! (also cool vid lol)
Thanks brother. I am going to get my first dunk in May, I can feel it.
Update?
@@fateFPS I can only touch the. Ring with base of my fingers.. One more month left. Let's see
Dude being able to say your the highest jumper in the world is such a legendary flex.
He ain't getting paid for it tho.
Kadour Ziani is the highest jumper in the world, 63" verticle
Kadour did lot stretching and plymetrics no weights and made a video about it
Mutaz Barshim is probably the highest jumper in the world at the moment.
yes it does, jumping everyday will improve drastically and other polymetrics exercise needed as soon the exercise you know it works than stick to it
Awesome video, especially for begginers
Glad it was helpful!
Bro I'm 19y but my first dunk was when I was 15, nowadays I felt like when I was nearly 18y I was in my maximum vertical jump almost hitting my head in the basket, actually I have been missing a lot of easy dunks
It helped me lol 17yrs ago when I was able to dunk at 14 plus genetics but I do understand there is way more involved now. Way more information available! Way more lol
Yep you can do it again and then some, a responsible mature adult who understands responsibility,, discipline, planning and following a schedule.
WhT heigjt
Another good question is, does targeting your core help with vertical. I periodize my core. I do general abb exercises in strength phase and go to iso holds which is more specific in my power phase and iso holds with arm movements which is most specific to dunking and moving in the air on my peaking phases
It wont help at all since the core is wotked heavily with any standing exercise
@@scarred10itll help 😂😂 you need a good core to balance out the vert
@@rennnniinnnnnnnnn it wont help at all,you get plenty of core strength from regular strength training the rest of the body anyway.
@@scarred10 yeuh but your not specifically targeting the core.
@@scarred10respectfully after doing core exercises for a week the following week I’ve been able to consistently grab at 5’9 1/2 I also do legs but every time I jump I feel my core muscles slightly burning so it definitely does do something not sure if it helps a lot but I’d say it helps lol
Thanks
Gracias por cada consejo Isaiah de entrenamiento siempre aprendiendo nuevas técnicas saludos de Argentina
De nada! 🙏🏻
I have a 9ft rim I play on
If I train with that rim while doing your calf raises would it be effective when playing a 10ft rim
Obviously 1000 calf raises a day doesn’t work… needs to be at least 2500 to begin seeing results
That’s cap I was doing 500 a day and saw results and started dunking
For the smith raises...is it flat ground? I assume so but whenever i see ppl do it its on an elevated surface
Can do flat or on elevated. I like flat ground personally because it’s less set up lol
Yes
listen, i am 55, i do calf raise because it helps me deal with pain in my calf. reason to do calf raises is to help not have injuries turn to sever pain as muscles atrophy when you grow older.
King dac the highest jumper
🔥🔥🔥
Should you pause at the bottom or do calf raises like presented in the video?
That’s just another way to add variety
I did a study on plyometrics and I dont like that you dont imply how differently plyometric exercises train muscles. Its not the same if you do calf raises or if you do pogo jumps for example. I think thats very important to add
We gotta get Austin into more acting gigs
Just wait til our next video 👀
I don’t got a gym how could I get bouncy
3x BW on calf-raises, but how many sets / reps?
serious question did yo ever often get cramps from doing that many calf raises
Will jumping in general help?
Like playing bbeveryday?
how many sets and repetitions of calve raises should I do?
Holy shit 😮😮 that was 700lbs calf raises?? Unbelievable!!
does the machine makes it easier??
fr wtf was 3:19?
@@2Kaleb I've seen Isaiah doing calf raises 450~ lbs with regular barbell and that was like his max then , but I think the same weight with the machine is easier than the same weight on the barbell
what matters is working hard like over 90%max with any of them that's reachable
Yea I listened to lots of videos and most of them said haveing a good plyometric and isometric routine is critical but if u have no muscle to do them stuff, GYM.
here for the tib raise slander
😂😂😂
bro if you do 1000 calf raises a day you wil def be dunking soon
Guess you did not watch the video lol
@@RealParadox85 I did
You need to do way more than just calf raises though. Sure if you do a 1000 every day it’ll help, but you can’t ignore quads, hamstrings, hips, glutes, and core. Calves aren’t the main source of energy when you take off
@@coop4 well that's a given but yea putting that with other workouts you are good to go
More rep more focusing in fatigued rep and not the explosive first 1-6 rep
Very off topic from the vid but you mind telling me how long it takes to transitions from 1 foot jumping to 2 foot jumping?
Late reply, sorry. I used to be able to only jump off of my left leg. My two foot jumps were like 4 inches lower than my left and my right leg was even worse. I hurt my right arm so I decided to start taking two foot approaches. It only took about two weeks of no jumping off of my left leg to be a good two foot jumper.
Ive not once heard about plyometrics
Some say calf raises don’t help some do idk who to believe 😢
What about without equipment
I learned that dude at the start and the end of the vid has an interesting spikey at only the front hairdo. Looks like he got stuck in a windtunnel.
how many times per week?
I like 2-3 times per week
Can you explain me how i am 16teen years old train my vert since 1year (and btw i am a volleyball player since then) and for one year from 20inch vertical . now i have 38icn and i can barely squad 130ibs deadlift 145ibs . I dont talk for clave raises i think you kno the answer XDDD🤣 and yes how i jump so high when i am so weak?
When talking vert, you gotta factor your weight and explosiveness into it. Even if you don't have a lot of muscle, explosiveness can make you jump with more force and speed.
Yeah, size doesn't matter when it comes to calves. I have big natural calves and I can barely take off the ground.
Having long Achilles’ tendons is key.
@@raezor82 I see. Well, unfortunately you can't buy those. Yet.
So it's good or not
So basically do calf raises with weights 😒
Why did he say calf raises was wrong in the beginning of the video then turn around and give you 10 variations of calf raises to do lol
heck yeah before I even attempt this I have to lose 30% BF :) thats 12 inches of vertical leap right there
Calf raises need to be done on a step for the stretch
Waste my time doing 1000 calf raises a day? I don't get to go the gym yet so it's better than wasting your time scrolling🤷♂️😂
He means there’s better uses of time
Calf raises work. Just got to incorporate some explosive squats....
Man the first 26 seconds is the cheesiest thing I've ever seen but we need more of it XD
Let’s go
Im 6’3 as a 10th grader ans I have a 34~ inch vert. I can rim graze off 1 1 hand and off 2 one hand. Do you think I could windmill by the end of the ball season if I grind hard enough? (it didn’t start yet)
If you haven't been thru a jumping system before you'll likely gain 6" in under 6 months.
Your math gotta be messed up. 6'3 plus your wingspan is alr at least 9 feet standing. Add that to your 34" vert and your looking at being able to touch 12. Dunking should be easy enough as long as you got proper form. I would reccomend maybe getting 2-3 inches on the vert and you could be able to windmill.
@@mrfrostwing yea i have a 8 ft standing reach and i can touch half my forearm over the rim which is like 13 inches (from the top of my fingers) but thats when i jump off 2 without a ball
@@mrfrostwing im gonna remesure my standing reach bc 8 dont sound right
@@lmanz2543 Your wingspan for 1 arm is abt half your height about 8 inches. Then you gotta minus the height from your shoulder to the top of your head. Since your 75" tall, your standing reach should be close to 8 feet, maybe a little shorter.
Instantly won my like with the Puerto-Rican flag 🇵🇷
You don't have to be super scientific, 300 x week + squatting + regular hoop you be super bouncy
I disagree strongly to everything you said except the squatting haha
If you want to be a better athlete, you need to train scientifically to train smarter
@@IsaiahRivera1 well I got proof so it's whatever. I know you got products to sell. Me too.
Hes the highest jumper in the world, plus he started off somehow average. Thats about the best proof you could have for his training
@@HustleHardBasketball400
@@HustleHardBasketball400this dude is a professional dunker 😂, no one knows u
"I‘m the highest jumper in the world"
Well, I‘m not much of a jumper. But I do appreciate his competitiveness, when it comes to being high…
It is on. 😶🌫️
Actually calf raises does help
according to a lot of research.
If I do 3000 tib raises a day I’ll touch 13 feet right?
Doing 1,000 calf raises every day can help your calf muscles, but it might not be the best way to boost your vertical jump. It's crucial to have a diverse workout plan, including exercises for different muscle groups, explosive movements, and the right technique to improve your jumping ability.
U chat gpt?
2:17
So 2,000 calf lifts a day???
I just do 100 squats a day
cramps?
Vthcf
fine for a 13 yrs old ?
To complicated
Poor aquiles tendon will break on the long run.
Not trying to knock this, but you’re basically saying don’t do high rep bodyweight calf raises. Do weighted calf raises. Also calf raises with 3x your bodyweight? Wtf man weigh 265 lol. I’m about to be that 45 lb weight hog at the gym.
Why would this guy tell you how to beat his record. Do 2k calf raises a day
You think YOUR the highest jumper in the world. I am 12 years old with a 68” vertical and I can dunk on 14 foot just like dexton
Your funny
No, would you mind giving yourself a Killie's tendonitis
Bro is not the highest jumper in the world
Jesus Christ is The only way to heaven ❤
Amen
Amen❤❤❤
So you're saying I can't jump there, darn!
Amen
Amen
Bullshit!
