Ok, so maybe I can't get you to jump like Blake Griffin, but I can GUARANTEE you that I can help you increase your vertical jump.

When it comes down to it, if you want to improve your vertical you MUST increase your POWER and Explosion. So how do we do this? In short, you need to combine heavy lifting with plyometric exercises. Most of your training should be focused on increasing the strength of your quads, hamstrings, and calves.

However, strength is not the only factor in increasing your vertical. Simply, targeting improvements on your form alone and mastering proper techniques can increase your vertical from 2 - 4 inches!

Also, there are a few commonly neglected aspects of a correct diet which allow your muscle recovery to improve dramatically, and this results in faster gains and greater injury prevention. All of these things can be seen at www.40inchvertical.net
