Answer 1

Try going into weight training once a week.  Squats work really well to raise your virtical.  Don't forget to bring your arms far back when going up for an approach.  You'd be suprised at the difference.

Answer 2

I don't know.  Do they make shoes with springs in them?  How about a trampoline?

Answer 3

tie your shoes tighter. i dont know if that actually works- but thats what my coach told me to do!

Answer 4

You need plyrometric training to build explosiveness. Just do a google search for exercises. Here are a few.

Answer 5

How high you jump is all based on your approach normally 3 steps.If your approach is weak so will your jump.Strengthen your approach by working on it a lot or ask a coach to help.Good luck!

Answer 6

tie ankle weights (or whatever) to your legs

plyrometric training

oooor

my personaly invented way.....

take a pair of either cheap or old shoes

hollow the heel(aka cut it open and pull out evreything) down to the rubber soles.  then fill the hollow with lead or some other heavy material, take hot glue and cover up the material so it won't go into the shoe.

then wear the shoes, they are as uncomfy as can be, but they do build up a little extra muscle

Answer 7

try jump roping 4 times a day.

Answer 8

you should use ankle weights, calf raises, squats, lunges, and still work on your core and arm strenght.....they will help you force your body upwards!
