Hi, and thanks for your collection of blog sites!
I don’t think I heard of any of these so I have a lot to read now.
It’s actually for my son who wants to know more about vertical jumps and now we can both learn a lot 🙂
If we only should choose one of them, which one would you recommend?
Regards, Jan
Hey Jan, there is no best one I could recommend. It all depends on what you are focusing on. If your son is a basketball player, you might wanna check out the basketball blogs first. Have fun!
Great resources, thanks!
Nice resources!
This is amazing!
I’m only in the 8th grade but I’m 6’2″ so everyone expects me to be able to dunk. I wanna learn it and this will for sure help me!
Thanks, John. Keep on going!
Hi,this is a nice collection of blogs,I started to read some of them an I find them very interesting and helpful. Good job!
Thanks, Lavinia! We are happy that you find it helpful!
It’s actually good tips, it helped my brother to jump higher, every one should learn these tips!

Great! Keep up the awesome work!
Hey, I wonder what you think about the Vertshock program for increasing my vertical jump. I do think it looks really good but I’m just a bit hesitated whether I should buy it. There are really good reviews about it out there. Tell me what you think about it because I’m tempted to buy it but would like to have your verification. Thanks
Hey Joel,
we haven’t tried Vertshock so unfortunately we cannot give you any insights on the program.
They claim the program adds 9–15 inches to your vertical jump in less than 8 weeks…
Vertshock is not a bad program. I didn’t gain so much from it but I had done other vertical jump training for a long time before. Definately not the most theorerical program, focuses more on “how” and not so much on “why”, which is great for someone eager to start working out without having to spend hours for understanding everything first, but maybe less good for someone who has gotten some initial gains, reached a plateau and trying to find ways to break the plateau!
Thanks for your detailed and helpful comment, Alex!
The ‘Dirty Secret’ behind the World’s #1 Dunker…
Yes, with good jump training you can come a long way!
With a proven jump training program you can add 9 – 15+ inches to your vertical jump…
Totally. If you are consistent in your approach…!
Hi, this really helps, thanks!
I’ve read through many of these blogs/sites and I have to say there are some great pointers and tips. No one is trying to stretch the truth at all and that’s ideal. Using the tips on the various blogs and sites has allowed me to gain some on my vert. I supplement with the vertshock training program also and my results have been self-rewarding. I’m almost a dunker! Praise the heavens…
Thanks, that’s great to hear that you find the resources helpful and that you are making progress. Keep on going!
I love this, now I am trying to improve my vertical jump with these tips!
Sounds great, keep us posted!
Hi, thank you for creating this resource. I am looking at the Jump Manual as I coach high school level volleyball. Have you seen this and do you have any thoughts?
Thanks again!
Sorry, no experience with The Jump Manual, Scott.
In fact we believe that the Vert Shock vertical jump training system seriously over delivers. As you know, there are many digital products on the internet for people to choose from and many are very low quality and offer un-realistic results. Vert Shock is far from anything like those products. We have taken from some of the brightest minds and combined the training principles into this course.
The professional athlete endorsements are a testimonial to the effectiveness of the product. The development of the Vert Shock platform took over a year to complete so you know it is a very thorough and high quality product. There is not only a set of scientifically proven workouts inside the members area, there are also high quality videos, online coaching platform offering recurring payments, bonus materials, and a members only forum.
Thanks for the links, exactly what I’m looking for!
I was recommended the Jump Manual program which is getting great reviews, is it something you have any experience with?
No, we don’t have experience with the Jump Manual, Brian.

Hello, my name is Jordan, I am high school basketball player. I have been trying to improve my dunk using a vertical jump. I’ve already tried every bogus jump ‘tutorial’ I could find on YouTube. I have not seen any improvement until last month when I found this blog that really helped. Thanks a lot!
Sounds great, Jordan! All the best on your journey!
Let me tell you – my results are amazing. For a player who didn’t even average 1 minute of playing time in high school these programs helped me make a professional roster!
Wow that’s amazing! Keep on going!
Practice is essential .. Try and try again, higher and higher .. Beautiful !!! Really well done article .. Congratulations .. I found it really useful to integrate these exercises with an in-depth tutorial.
Thanks, Jack. We are happy you find the post useful!
