its for overall athleticism, something Veeky Forums knows nothing about

It trains explosive leg movement which is useful for any sport involving running.

It's for those dank internet likes/shares. While they can jump, it's not as high as it looks because they're doing some random-ass shit with no frame of reference or sense of scale.

They always seem to jump above their body height which is pretty impressive as a frame of reference.

oriental

Some of them are weightlifters

I did it for volleyball and another one of my friends did it for basketball

Box jumps and leap frogs =/= vertical leap.
You can only train vertical to a certain extent; genetics.

Athle..what?

Jumping over their height?

That seems impossible.

oly weigthlifters do lot of high jumps

He's 6ft

He's also dyel

I think he meant atherosclerosis. I mean, as a power lifter it's the only word beginning with ath I know.

Athleticism...Sounds paintful. How do you catch it? Or are you born with it?

>be white 6'1
>basketball player
>can dunk two handed.

thanks based genetics

not the way most of them are doing it:

for explosiveness to be useful you want to practice triple extension, not your ability to pull your legs up to climb the box.

Most of them are a test of hip flexibility as opposed to veritcal jump ability

Here is my favorite video of jumping manlets. Look at that likte guys jump its fucking insane. It's like gravity stops for a second m.youtube.com/watch?v=6n73sH29IG0
