DROP JUMPS Drop Jumps are an effective movement in the Shock Method within the Plyometric Continuum to build elastic power and resiliency. When performed correctly, the drop jumps helps to improve vertical power output by incorporating an increased eccentric stress on the body, and so improving the potential for concentric output. Here we have WSSC Athlete Crystal showing us how to correctly demonstrate a drop jump. In the first clip, we see there is prolonged ground contact time (decreased reac

1. Drop Jumps Drop jumps train your nervous system to react instantly when landing, teaching your body to absorb force and then explode upward with maximum speed. They improve rate of force development, making you more reactive and explosive in sprints and jumps. 2. Reflexive Split Squat Jumps These build unilateral power and coordination by forcing each leg to produce explosive force independently. They enhance balance, hip extension, and rapid ground contact for faster directional changes and
