Power Bag Training To Develop Your Vertical Jump

 

The Power Bag is a training device that has been used by athletes for many years now. It was originally created to help with vertical jump, but you can also use it to train your balance and core. The Power Bag is the perfect way to take your workout home so you don't have to be in a gym all day!

Ever wonder why your vertical is so low?

Could it be that you are not eating enough protein?  

Maybe you're not getting enough sleep, or maybe your shoes need to be broken in a little more. You could also have some sort of genetic abnormality. I'm sorry to break the news, but if any of these are true then unfortunately there's nothing we can do about it.

That being said, before we get into how power bags will help improve your vertical jump let's talk about what this blog post isn't: It is not an advertisement for power bag training as a whole; rather just one small part of the power bag workout routine.

Do you want to jump higher? Do you struggle with the power dribble? Is your shot too flat for a guard and not enough arc for the big man? I am going to show you how Power Bag training can help.

Simply place a weighted power bag between your legs (1-2kg) or on top of your thighs (5-10kg). Next, squat down then explode up as high as possible. Repeat this process 10 times. As an added challenge, try jumping over the bag after each rep! This will give you a great workout while also improving explosiveness and verticality in all athletic endeavors.

  Do you want to be the best wrestler you can possibly be? If so, then it's time to start training with a power bag! Wrestling is one of the most grueling sports there are, and in order to stay on top of your game, you need to train hard. That means lots of lifting, pulling and pushing. A power bag is a great way for wrestlers (or anyone else) to get their strength up without having to go into a gym or use weights. The only thing required for this type of workout are some basic exercises like lunges and squats- just enough that will activate all those muscle groups we need when wrestling. Power Bag training is a form of conditioning that has been around for decades but it's only recently become popular. The idea is to use the Power Bag as a tool for developing your strength and power in an explosive manner, without relying on weights. It also helps you develop new motor patterns which will make you more athletic and improve your reflexes. Beginners can start with lighter bags
