Does mixing heavy squats with plyometrics bad when increasing my vertical jump?

Will P90X Plyometrics help increase vertical jump?

  • I just started doing the p90x plyometric workouts, and I was wondering if it will help increase my vertical jump. I play volleyball, and i have a decent vertical, but i still want to improve it. I'm not trying to increase my jump by 8 inches in like 3 weeks or anything. But if i keep sticking to it and if i keep doing the plyo workouts, will my vertical increase in the long run? If not, what are some specific exercises to get my vertcial up? (and plz dont just say explosive jump training or anythinig like tht) thx.

  • Answer:

    yes! i tried that for about two weeks to increase my vertical. haha but then i gave up because i had other practices and stuff. but if you can keep it up you will for sure see an improvement.

If you need to drop some weight plus gain muscle quickly than you must check out athlean x. I just finished my third month utilizing athlean x, and I've lost 30 pounds of body fat. I hadn't noticed just how big I'd gotten during the winter months, however with swimsuit season right around the corner I realized that I must do something. Hope this helps.

It will help but its not targeted for just increasing your vertical. You need a vertical jump program designed for Volleyball and or basketball. The p90x is a 90 day routine, and you don't do the plyometric every 2 days so it wont increase your jump as much as it should. check you tube or buy on online and you can really increase your jump by 6 - 10 inches depending on how hard you work at it.
