sup man!
what have you done, as far as training?
basically, you want to:
- get stronger (squats/lunges/pullups/pushups, of course you can throw in some other lifts if you want, but these are the basics)
- stay in great shape (if you're not in great shape, you need to get there; jump rope, sprints, reactive drills etc)
- keep jumping/playing basketball
- make sure you're getting enough rest/eating right
the reason why squat/lunges are so important, is that the more force you can put into the ground, the higher you'll jump.. so squatting/lunging will help develop that ability to produce force by increasing muscle mass and or improving your nervous system's ability to produce it... pullups/pushups are important because strong shoulders/lats etc are very much apart of jumping - the more powerful your arm swing, the higher you'll get.
the best thing is to start a journal and keep track of every workout.. PROGRESS is the #1 indicator of success.. you can do lots of different programs and get nowhere if you don't constantly try and progress..
as far as plyos go, i doubt you need them just yet.. and even when you do need them, they are not as fancy as everyone makes them seem.. people overcomplicate the hell out of them, they are very easy to implement..
peace man
