I am jumping and
de-loading my Cal this weeks
Finished Jumpsole and nearly made 2x body weight para squat.
I am practicing jump every second day now. I try to shoot like 10 jump shots, then attempt to jump 2-3 time in that cycle for 40 min daily.
Video cap from last session:http://vimeo.com/39051703I know the theory to jump high are:
- During recoil, go down fast (but not too much) and rebound up
- The last 2 steps must be fast (2 foot approach)
- Master the ability to carry horizontal force, stop it at a penny and redirect it upward.
After jumping for 3 sessions, I notice the following:
- it is hard to maintain control with high approach speed
- If I try to slow down, mid way, my approach is not smooth and it just useless, (try to be smooth instead of too fast)
- My best jump come from planting my first jump foot (left), and letting my 2nd jump foot land by gravity force and then explode up. Most of the jumping power is coming from the left foot.
Area for improvement / Target:
Reviewed a few adarq dunk video, who is also LR planted. I had set this as my short terms goal.
- Instead of letting the body/2nd leg drop by gravity in the last step, try to pull myself down with force and rebound.
- Limit the range of motion in the downward phase might be a good idea.
- Increase the arm swing power!

others feedback i hope to get from adarq.org....
