Jumping Higher For Basketball - Here's How It's Possible!

Jumping higher for basketball is a goal that almost everyone that plays the game has. If you can increase your vertical you can drastically improve your game and become a better player. You will be able to play better defense, improve the range of your jump shot and maybe most exciting - you will be able to dunk the ball!

Unfortunately a lot of people simply think that there's no way to increase their vertical leap. They figure that jumping is just something that you're born with and that it isn't possible to increase it enough to make a difference in their game.

This couldn't be farther from the truth! It is possible to increase your vertical leap by as much as 20 inches if you take the right steps. I've seen many people who are under 6 feet work on their vertical to the point where they were able to dunk.

Obviously I can't promise that you'll add two full feet to your jump, but I can guarantee you that jumping higher for basketball is entirely possible. You will see a drastic difference in the height of your jump by following a vertical leap training program.

The key is to focus on the muscles used when jumping and then target them with various exercises to strengthen them. There are many different muscles involved, so if you can make them stronger and work on them in a specific way, you're going to see results.

You also will work on your "explosiveness" and technique used when jumping. This plays a huge role in how high you jump.

In fact, just a simple adjustment in the technique and form you use will often add a couple inches immediately. Many people don't realize that the way they "launch" into the air isn't the most effective way to jump. A simple change and you can see instant results.

Think about it as you would any type of training program. For example, if you wanted to strengthen your arms so that they could lift more, you would workout your biceps, triceps, forearms etc. and would be able to see results within a fairly short period of time.

The exact same thing applies to increasing your vertical leap. You target the muscles use in jumping, perfect your form and will see results as you go through the training program and you will be jumping higher for basketball.
