Why the Key to Flying High Resides in Force Absorption
World renowned sports scientist and Soviet jumps coach Yuri Verkhoshansky was one of the first to utilize the concept and that was back in the 60’s in the training of his elite-level athletes. Verkhoshansky examined the jumping mechanics of his highest performing athletes and realized that they all held one thing in common: they spent significantly less time on the ground than athletes of lower levels of jump mastery. Knowing that jumping athletes are required to tolerate extremely high amounts of force when planting for/landing from a jump (anywhere from about 3-8 times their bodyweight) and that if the body doesn’t possess these capabilities, it would never be able to fully optimize the effects from the stretch-shortening cycle, he realized he must devise training exercises which go beyond the traditional concentric-oriented exercises like are often used. Thus, he developed a number of exercise variations (many that are used in the BoingVERT Jump System) that fit under the category of ‘Shock Method’, or commonly known to some as Plyometrics.
SUMMARY IF YOU DON'T FEEL LIKE READING!
The ability to jump higher often comes down to how much FORCE you can absorb upon landing! Your body won't let you jump higher than your body is able to absorb. If you can absorb more force, then you can eventually jump higher. BoingVERT increases your ability to absorb force upon landing! This will increase your vertical!
4 Quick Steps to Increasing Force Absorption
Of course, for a more comprehensive plan with ZERO guesswork, the obvious choice would be to pick up the BoingVERT Jump System. One of the main things that truly makes the BoingVERT philosophy different from many other programs out on the market is its emphasis on force absorption in jumping and it’s one of the many reasons why it is THE best program on the market!
