How To Jump Higher? The Jump Manual Review

How Can The Jump Manual Help You?

 Who is Jacob Hiller? Jacob Hiller has been involved in vertical jump training for over 10 years.  Jacob developed The Jump Manual, a concise guide to comprehensive vertical jump training.  He has trained and consulted athletes and coaches  from high school, college, NBA to international Olympic athletes.    After achieving a 44 inch vertical for himself, Hiller developed methods to systematically exceed 40 inches in vertical jump abilty by implementing his multi-faceted explosion training.


Where is Jacob Hiller now? Jacob is currently on tour coaching and speaking about his training methods and has already visited 22 countries, and trained in 4 different languages.
How did Jump Manual get started? Jacob began using The Jump Manual in 2004 to personally train athletes.  Many students were producing gains quickly, and some students gained more than 20 inches on their running vertical leap.  Jacob was encouraged publishing the manual as local buzz increased about the training and local athletes witnessed the results.  The Jump Manual has been available online since February 08 and is attracting a significant user base.  Testimonials and thank you emails are received almost daily.


What’s next? It is Jacob’s mission to change the face of vertical jump training so that every dedicated athlete can have access to effective, and safe vertical jump training to the extent that any athlete can reach their maximum explosion potential (MEP).  Jacob supports further research for safer and more effective training methods, and has been recognized by many athletes and coaches internationally as an authority on vertical jump training.
Hiller is currently making investments into explosive exercise research using state of the art equipment.  He is now able to get more data on the human movement and the effects of exercises than ever before and use it to perfect his methods.

Vertical Jump Training

Jumping Skills (Mind and Body)

Did you know that you can improve your jumping skills just like any other skill you wan to develop? this my sound obvious but many people never think about this! Maybe for that reason many people may even think that jump higher is really much more hard than it really is!
So, just like running faster or getting stronger though exercise, you can jump higher if you make some exercises, and if you are interesting in the parkour world, jumping higher is a skill you want to develop!remember that parkpur is about finding the most efficient way  from point A to pint B and some times this means jumping.Jumping is something most of the people don't really do that often, so if you are new to the parkour world you may find your jumping skills not developed at all! Jumping it's about strength but also about "faith" (not the religious kind of faith! but most of all faith in your self!) So you need to work in this two things to develop your jumping skills the right way. In other words: its worthless to have the strength in the legs but non confidence enough to make a jump (been afraid to fall!); also its useless to have to confidence and a leak of technique ( and also much more painful xD





How to jump Higher



I would like to share here, content from other web site that's cached my attention with a very nice jump training, but before the quote I'd like to make something clear: This is exercise you can do right now if you want, but like every other exercise you need to warm up before if you don't want to hurt your self; also to reach your goal you need something to measure your jumps before starting, so you can see how you improve! you can use a rope hanging from the roof or a little mark on the wall!
