Athletes all around have long debated which muscles help you jump higher. If you were to ask 4 different people I bet you’d get 4 totally different answers.
Proper Exercise
Muscles grow in response to the application of the right stress. Your exercise routine should be one that gives the most effective workout to your muscles. Learn the proper form of all exercises to get maximum benefit. Reps should be between 8 and 12 to trigger fast muscle growth.
When I was just getting started and jumping higher was my number one goal, I heard all the hype about building strong calves. I also heard about how if you strapped on some strength training shoes or frontal platform shoes, that you’d be jumping to the moon in no time.The reason why platform shoes were so popular and continue to be, is because of the idea that they built monstrous calves. And strong calves were supposed to make you jump higher. Well, I’m not here to put down anyone else’s theories. In fact, I think strength training shoes are great. But when it comes to jumping higher, I don’t think calves are the most important muscles.
I mean, don’t get me wrong. I did get some decent gains in my vertical when I built my calves. But if you looked at the rest of the muscles in my legs, you’d probably say they looked puny in comparison. Well, it wasn’t until I started really hitting my quadriceps hard, that I really started jumping to the moon.I can remember a light bulb going off when I realized that quadriceps were really the most important muscles for jumping. With that new found knowledge, I really started blasting them and I got even better results.visit website http://forum.download-driver.net/index.php?action=profile;u=87182
Diet
The saying ‘you are what you eat’ is applicable here. Fast muscle building is a combination of weight lifting, rest and a good diet. Fast bodybuilding diet should be high in protein with a good mix of complex carbohydrates. Stay away from fatty foods. Protein helps muscles to grow whilst a sufficient intake of carbohydrate is needed to supply the enough calories to give you energy for workouts. Your diet should therefore include a good mix of lean red meat, white meat, fish, low-fat dairy food, whole meal, fruits, vegetables etc.Go to site http://keyshot.com/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=17930
