And, in another article:
| Quote: | | Six elite male high jumpers were subject to tests that enabled the researchers to determine the power and speed of the jumper’s joint motions at take-off. It was discovered that the arms had a greater influence on take-off performance than the free leg. This seemed to be as a result of the limited ability of the free leg to drive further ‘into’ the jump once the take-off foot was grounded and extending into the jump, and was in contrast with the ability of the arms to drive more forcibly ‘through’ into the jump. |
| Quote: | For example, while a flat-footed landing depth jump will develop some jumping power, it may not optimally transfer into the specific performance requirements of an athlete in a specific sport. To give some examples:
* A sprinter may benefit more from forefoot, single-leg-landing depth jumps, as the sprint action is performed from a similar foot-strike position;
* A basketball or volleyball player may derive greater vertical spring (a key requirement of their games) by using flat-footed, single- and double-leg-landing depth jumps.

Great article man, I guess this is what I am currently working on through heavy weight lifting and low impact plyometrics (ankle hops), making my tendons stronger and more elastic.
Also this agrees with something I read, possible in VJB, that when you land it should be with little ankle and knee flexation so that the energy is absorbed and can be transferred easily. |
