Box Jump Technique Tips To Develop Explosive Jumping

There is many exercises to help people jump higher and develop explosive power and Box Jumps would be one of the most popular and easy to do. As opposed to Olympic Lifting box jumps are much easier to learn and come with little risk, yet yield almost identical returns in terms of acceleration from the ground. There are many types of Box Jumps you can use but I always like to start with the easiest ones first and then work my way up to the harder more difficult versions. You want to eventually progress to several single leg landing versions as these are the exercises that will prepare you to build immense stability & strength in the ankle, hip and knee! If you injured your knee playing sports it is absolutely essential you reach this stage before commencing sport again. If you cannot complete these exercises with complete confidence you are not ready to play. You will not only play below your ability but you risk injuring your knee again and going back to the beginning.
