What is and how to improve vertical long jump take-off velocity
This is a follow up video from the previous one on long jump horizontal velocity
(LONG JUMP ESSENTIALS #1 TAKE-OFF SPEED. HORIZONTAL VELOCITY & WHY YOU ALWAYS SLOW DOWN
   • LONG JUMP ESSENTIALS  #1 TAKE-OFF SPE...  )
0.36sec Stats used are from World Athletics and the 2017 World outdoor champs LJ final won by Luvo Manyonga with Jarrion Lawson in second (8.48m/8.44m).
I go through the jumpers' vertical and horizontal take-off velocities. Manyonga achieves greater vertical velocity and this could be the reason for his winning leap. Lawson is faster horizontally - again see horizontal velocity video.
1.42min Jump distance is a product of horizontal and vertical take-off velocity
1.57min Other factors which influence vertical velocity from a biomechanics point of view
The degree and speed of knee flexion at take-off
Take-off angle is another factor (more in another video)
3.00min What can you do to improve your take-off hight?
Eccentric overload drills
Mat placed on pen step will overload the take-off and the forces which need to be braked and returned. This is known as the “coupling” time between the eccentric and the concentric phases.
Plyo eccentric emphasis jump drills
3.30min Eccentric overload drill
I include this drill across the whole of the training year
3.59m Eccentric emphasis plyos - such as drop and block jumps (with or without added weight) and downhill step jumps.
I provide an example of research which shows how downhill step jumps can improve vertical jumping ability and the torque in the knee extensors
4.32min More on drop and block jumps
Note the eccentric take-off work is much more specific
