Brandon Roy's best dunks are spectacular. Do you remember his sick
tomahawk inbound-slam? What about his breathtaking dunk on Cheikh Samb
from the Clippers? There is no doubt the 24-year old Trail Blazer has
hops. In fact, the 6-foot-6 guard has a 40.5-inch vertical!
Now, if you want to improve your vertical, take a look at some
exercises from B-Roy's workout:
1) Split Squat Jumps. Starting position: split squat position (one
foot lowered a step in front of your upper body). Now jump straight up
for maximum height and switch the position of legs in the air, landing
in split squat position with opposite foot forward.
2) Dumbbell Squat Press.Starting position: Stand with your feet
shoulder-width apart; hold the dumbbells on top of your shoulders. Sit
back, then lower into squat. Now try to explode up out of the squat
position onto balls of feet while pressing dumbbells overhead.
3) Dumbbell Box Jumps. The goal here is to jump from both feet on a
high box (should be solid) - Brandon Roy can jump up on a 36 in box
holding 60 pound (!) dumbbells. Main tips here are: Start with no
weight, then try jumping with light dumbbells in your hands; always
start on the balls of your feet.
There are many other, effective exercises that you can do in order to
increase your vertical. There are basic jumping exercises, weight
exercises and plyometric exercises that will boost your vertical.
The crucial point here is the right execution of the exercises and the
right amount of repetitions. One of the common mistakes in vertical
jump training is doing too many repetitions (and at middle intensity).
To avoid such mistakes, I personally recommend the brand-new Jump
Manual, as inside, you will find videos, pictures and detailed
instructions of the exercises that were designed to improve your
vertical.
P.S. Did you know that before attending college, Brandon Roy worked on
the Seattle docks, cleaning shipping containers for $11/hour? This
year he earns more than $3.000.000 - working out pays off!
