Question

What wiegth training to you suggest to make my jump higher?

Answer 1

Squats

Dead-lifts

Leg Presses

Calf Raises

Basically any leg workout.  Do very few reps just use as much weight as you can.  I prefer myself 3 sets of 10 with the max amount of weight you can lift.  By the time you reach 8 should be getting pretty difficult and they last few are always the money makers when weight lifting.

Answer 2

I have a problem with my jump highth too.  There's this website I found...

It has a lot of good excersises and drills to use.

Answer 3

Trampoline.

Answer 4

Squats

Answer 5

Squats are a good full body workout.  They keep stabilizer muscles working along with the quads and lower back.  Calf raises will also do it.

Answer 6

Put your toes on the edge of a step, and press up and down. Strengthens the calves. Don't forget to stretch them before and after to avoid cramps.

Answer 7

squats, leg presses, leg curls

Answer 8

Squats.

Answer 9

Squats and plyometrics.

Answer 10

Squats, no doubt.

Answer 11

Jumping as high as you can is  ballistic movement. You need to train using these explosive movements as well. Regular squats won't get you there. You need to do jump squats or burpees. And for motivation, measure your increased performance i.e. jump height. Try jump squats with light weights (ankle/wrist, or dumbells).
