Combining weight training with plyometric training.

Studies are showing that a plyometric program that runs along side a weight training program produces optimum results.

One final point... a training program to increase vertical jump performance should not focus purely on the development of your leg power. It has been shown that the arms contribute an average of 10% to takeoff velocity during a jump!

what is the best way to increase vertical jump performance?

- If you are new to strength training a basic weight training program will increase vertical jump power safely and effectively (see below for details).

- If you already do some strength training and are pushed for time, add some dynamic weight training exercises to your routine (see below).

- If you have the time and commitment, combine a weight training program with a plyometric training program for optimum results...
