Coach Mark Ottobre breaks down how to fix a jumper's technique with specific cues: progressive loading, keeping the torso upright, and extending power through the ankles, knees, and hips. He demonstrates each correction in real time.
Oh, not as good. Set up, load, load, load, load, and then pow, as high as you can. Jump here. See what you just did then? Don't do that. Think about headbutting the roof. Ah yeah, that's what you meant by headbutting the roof, just literally. So if you do, if you do this, you're going to be leaning back too much, right? What we want is you want to be here. Extend from your ankles, extend from your knees, and extend from your hips. Right, you don't need to overextend like that because now you're using too much lower back. You want to boom, straight up. Yeah, gotcha. Spread your butt cheeks. Good.
