Ways to Jump Higher Fast

I'm going to show you ways to jump higher fast. This is one of the best things you can invest time in if you're a basketball player. When you're able to improve on your jumping, you increase your importance greatly. Most people assume that dunking the ball is the big benefit, but in reality there is so much more than that. You are able to become a better defender. You're able to get to rebounds before other people and lastly, you can shoot the ball far better. There are a ton of benefits for basketball on this and if you stick basketball it, you can have great results. That's why I'm going to show you ways to jump higher.

My first exercise will help you remain springy, like an elastic. Too many people focus on power, which is important, but without springiness you're going to get no where. Try to walk around on the tips of your toes for 30 minutes. It sounds easy when you read it, but after about 10 minutes, you should be in pain. If you happen to be one of those gifted people that find this easy, try doing it while walking around backwards.

Of course this springiness exercise needs to be balanced with strength. This is one of the best ways to jump higher and it's the squat. Most people neglect it because they assume it focuses on the upper legs, rather than the important muscles that make the jump. Look closely and you'll see that a squat is a slow motion jump.
