  • In today's video, I will be teaching you guys the program that I followed that helped me to increase my vertical jump 4-5+ inches in just 12 weeks. As highly requested, I share my advice, highlighting different elements of jump theory, technique, and strength. Hopefully, this video encourages you to go out and try and see if this works for you!
    Also, a HUGE shout out to Colin Murray. If it wasn't for his video, mine wouldn't exist. The inspiration and program came from his page. Please check it out: • How I Increased My Ver...
    I want to thank all 500 of my subscribers for joining me on my journey. I hope I can continue to inspire and entertain you all. Enjoy this one :)

    Solid video homie! I used to be a rim grazer and may have technically dunked a basketball once. But I salute you, doing so off one foot I feel is definitely harder than off two. But I'm trying to actually have a legitimate dunk and appreciate you sharing this insight from your own experiences! Keep on at it!

  • @hoemey
    @hoemey Před 3 měsíci +1

    Appreciate the no-nonsense video. May I ask during phase 1, the strength phase, what are the strength standards to achieve relative to bodyweight? So for your 5x5 squats:
    • what weight were you repping?
    • depth?
    • tempo?
    • exploding up or fully strength focused grind up?
    Nordic curls:
    • supported or already repping bodyweight?
    Trying to understand what level of strength I should achieve before moving on to develop power.
    For reference, I'm 5'9.5" and I'm grabbing rim as a 2-feet jumper.

      For lower body, I would stick to this workout for the two days each week. It’ll be a lot on your lower half and you don’t wanna overdo it, so two days a week for lower half in terms of lifting I think this is a good medium. Besides that, feel free to do other workouts for upper body etc!

    what does this number after "-" mean(right next to reps and sets of a given exercise)?

    • @johnnyperkins_
      @johnnyperkins_  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Depending on the exercise, it's a recommendation for reps! So for example, maybe one week you do lunges with a certain weight and can only do 8, maybe the next week you're able to get 10-12, but once you hit that rep range and get comfortable with it, maybe you move up in weight again so that you're around that 8 reps again. Basically, it's just so that when you do an exercise you find a weight that is comfortable enough to make you stronger but not push yourself too hard and to progressively add weight as you get stronger 💪
