The capacity to execute an action in an effective manner is so important; this will enable an individual to fully utilize the purpose of such action. This will also apply in learning how to increase vertical jump. Jumping high is dependent on effectiveness of the jump. People think that jumping is all about bending your legs and pushing your self up to the air. When you look at it with great amount of focus you will notice that there is more than that. Studying how your body does this action will give our over view on what things to consider when jumping.
If we take a closer look at how our legs move when we are jumping, we would notice that it work like a spring, our legs can be compared to it. Legs are like springs when it is compressed there will be a resistance it tends to expand to its original form. Potential energy is generated, potential energy is and energy witch is at rest, it might be resting but when the spring is released this energy will be converted to kinetic energy. Now this energy is what we want, this gives the momentum to the movement. What is in the spring that gives power to it? Springs have different spring constants depending on the material that is made from, the higher the spring constant the greater force it generates.
Although we don’t have spring constants like a springs, our legs also has this traits we have powerful muscles in our legs whi9ch can be developed.
But developing our muscles it not enough at all, how you deliver your jump is important as well in jumping, it is best to get some momentum and this can be achieve by running and when you’re ready to jump bend your knees in a proper manner and then push yourself up by bending it back accompanied by the force from your ankles, then your on the air bend your legs so that you will stay in the air for a longer time, and when you land absorb the force by also bending your ankles and legs this ill insure safety. If you practice this with proper execution it will improve your jump.
