Great stuff plz do a video on how beginners can properly go from strength, then power, then joint specific exercise and ploys as they advance. Also include injury prevention tips.

How have i gone a year without knowing about you. You are literally the answer to my prayers

[Dirtroadjaeshow]

Great presentation! Would love a follow up video!

[altonexon]

I love your videos and how informative they are. I think most of us would love a vertical jump program coming from you

[boblhomme]

Loved video and am very interested in applying to high jump!

[CesarMartinez-nuif]

Also technique, physics helps, literally science and how the momentum of your body works, core stability while in the air also, if you jump high but your core is not stable while in the air and you wanna do crazy dunks, you’re gonna lose balance and even feel like your landing way earlier

[WallaceChen]

Very helpful. My training vertical jump sessions are pretty familiar you said in the video.And I would love to follow up your next videos like a whole training program 👍

Hey, could you make a video like periodisation for vertical jump? Would love to see it

[mastermindpatrick]

Love your content...Please... speak on vertical jump program using a kettlebell conventional and non conventional

[Oi-mjdv]

Okay so as i understand is the same as for strenght but extra steps.
You need muscle mass to have actual myofibrils and contractile tissue in good measure, then you move to a base strenght training with plenty submaximal work and some maximal effort, then instead of peaking for strenght as youd do in powerlifting, you double down on speed work and inteiduce plyos. Good. Noted

[jeffreybonner]

Was really glad to hear you say yes to Nordic curls. Going to incorporate these things into my vertical training.

[kingsskys]

what’s the difference between power and strength training?

[stephennovak]

can you make a video like this but for speed as well?

[icegunz]

Great stuff brother you’re gonna have 100k followers sooner or later also could you do some training for boxers 🔥
