brb sprinting bilaterally.
That's why for me - jumping off two has never been natural. When you walk/run you don't bounce on two feet. Jumping is just an exaggerated, longer "step" on one leg to me. And we're built to move unilaterally.

(I actually jump off 1 foot as well, but jumping off 2 never felt natural to you because you are uncoordinated, not because it's a weird movement).
I jump off both 1 and 2 feet pretty darn good. Both feel completely natural. Maybe I'm just uber-coordinated.
that isn't natural blu, we are unilateral creatures blu.
After my 3rd knee surgery on my left knee I had to reduce the amount I jumped off one footed. It was only natural for me to adapt and become a better 2 footed jumper. So the first 16 years of my life, off 1 foot, the next 5 or so off two foot. The last 3 or so I've done both pretty darn well. They both feel completely natural in different situations that they are required for. Just sayin'.
ya i was kidding mang.. hah
Gah, there's no telling anymore. Someone really needs to create a sarcasm font.

Hey
FInally glad to be back onto a vertical jump forum. Just Finished UNI also finished my Posterior Activation Training and will test how much i have gained.
My Goal is to Run 100m in 10s i.e. 10.1-10.6 mark before next year and to have a standing jump of 32 and running jump of 36+.
I can Squat 1.15 x BW as the final 8 week workout i did was the first time i did any heavy lifting.
I hope to contribute as well as get some helpful tips for my training.
Thanks
lots of people on here are better qualified than i am to offer advice, so all i'll say is, why are you taking all your layups with the same leg/arm combination? shouldn't the ones from the left be off the right leg and with the left hand? even i can make layups off both feet and with both hands and i suck at basketball.
^^ learn to use your left hand/ right leg on the left side, right hand/left leg on the left side. Also, being that youre a two leg jumper, practice jumping off both as well.
the right/left layup he did on the left/right side seems to work for me so i can skoop under guys arms and get a foul. sorry off topic
Its fine to do reverses and all sorts of variations to the basics. If you cant ACTUALLY DO THE BASICS though, its a good idea to learn them. Jumping off the right leg and using the left hand and jumping off the left leg and using the right hand are basic skills, that keep the defense further away from the ball. There is a reason that every basketball coach in the world teaches these skills to players at a very young age.
this.
How do you not see bolt on all fours that whole race, EXACTLY like the cheetah and horse in those clips? its plain as day blu.
+1 lol.
You don't have to get on all fours though.
Humans have the ability to decompress there spines too.
Obviously your not looking out for the same amount of spinal decompression as the cheetah.
It's far less in humans.
A good example of spinal decompression, Asafa at 1:22.<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tu2GejA49AY" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tu2GejA49AY</a>
Bolt's is even more evident as his spine is more flexible, but you need to slow down the video's to the right speed & get the right angle.
