How can i "jump higher"?

Question

how can i increase my vertical leap?

Answer 1

Lift weights, a total body routine, and do plyometric exercises.

It takes strength to jump and run.

Run stadium bleachers or stairs, and work on your jump technique.  

Answer 2

I'd have a look at buying some Springbak Springsoles.

They can INSTANTLY increase your hops 2"+

Thats where I got mine from myself and I must say I'm more than happy with them! I'm dunking now when I could only just get my hand above the rim before.

Answer 3

Jump roping, you're exercising the exact muscles and endurance it takes to jump, mainly because that's what you're doing.
