Habitual Jump Training
The first one is that it is teaching you the mechanics of jumping, and there’s a benefit there. The other thing is, although there’s a lot of volume, for many of you doing the program, for the first 10 or 20 reps, you’re probably jumping a lot higher in the beginning, so you’re doing more reps, and your intensity is going to lower. So most of your gains will be taking place at the very first portion of this workout, when the intensity’s high, with more maximum effort.
The problem is, when you habitually jump over and over, you’re training your endurance, not your explosion. This means that eventually your gains are going to stall out. Therefore, if you’re looking for max gains in your vert, jump at max explosion every time; don’t wait for gains to come with habitual jump training.
