Best Use For Improving Vertical Jump

Ankle Jumps are primarly used for developing reactive strength with particular emphasis on the achilles and calves. This exercise will help you get off the ground quicker with minimum knee bend. The addition of the power jumper is highly beneficial as it provides accommodating resistance without adding any extra weight and without impacting jumping technique.

Technique Tips

Whilst keeping your knees flexed bounce up and down as quickly and as high as possible using primarily your lower legs and ankles.
