I keep coming back to this video. It's gold. I've been doing these exercises about twice a week for about 4 weeks now. I've been getting bouncier. They've taken on a much cooler feel. I just played some ultimate and was running pretty fast and had a few nice jumps and just felt good. I'm on the downhill slide (and it's steep). I'm 46. At 26 I could jump like a mother fucker. Now, it's a good day if everything is working and I feel fast. If I'd done this stuff then and known what I know now I'd'a been a great ultimate player. Now I'm happy to be still playing and (re)getting some pep in my step.
I do like 10 for each set. And maybe do 3 circuits of all the exercises at the most. I'm starting over again and I'm just doing 1 circuit and I'm skipping the single leg hopping and the dual leg going forward, because those are the hardest. Oh, I just spent the past 3 months or so doing single leg dead lifts and single leg squats before starting these.
Thanks for the video man. Its about time I change up my routine and do something different.I got tired of body building and realized I'm much better at moving a full range of motion.
I call these my secret workout because everytime I get slow I use these and then I just chop up the field thanks man great stuff you got here Will recommend you to any upcoming sprinters :) I do these 3 times a day till I got sick and had to went to the hospital I train hard
Im into sport biomechanics and I can say this dude teaches the stuff well. I rip on alot of vids that dont come upto scratch but I must say Destorm welldone bro. You will definitely make a good coach. Keep up the good work!
Great stuff...keep doing it man, people make a lot of money doing exactly what you're doing right now, which is sharing something your passion about! Cheers Mate!
@@akalajones3719 I never got the message from your post. I would estimate that it added like 4 inches along with other work. It seems to build a good overall strength base.
Last summer in Football we did all these workouts, I was quite sketchy to their efficiency but it turns out these are great workouts for explosiveness, speed, and vert! Great video Destorm and nice hops man lol/
thanks man, once the stretched ligament in my foot gets better im going to get back to running and basketball and when im ready im gonna take advantage of this video. thanks
This is a nice video with very good information, plyometrics will enhance your speed part in the power=strength+speed ecuation. This deserves a thumbs up. By the way whats that beat in the video, its catchy
Thanks for showing this man, I am 6', 15 years old and can rim swing on a steel rim, and dunk on a plastic/ ally rim I hope these give me that extra boost !
DeStorm, you showed a very good review of Plyos for everyone. I think he definitely did these correctly, and warned not to do them as fast, and explosive as he did, Notice he is In shape already. Do these two times a week, or incorporate them in your workout 3-4x a week, just do less. Im a distance runner, so I do these, but only a little, I work in a little more skipping, and high knees to keep my body in forward momentum. DeStorm is showing you explosives technique.
For all these where he's doing the jumps rhythmatically, if you do the jumps/reps with a small break in between and go for max surge, you're working more of a strength training drill. If you're doing rhythmatic jumps you're working dynamic training, which is training your tendons for the reversal of motion from eccentric to concentric
Rahad Jackson Yea it would. You can also take the concept of max surge or strength training for your jumps to the next level and do squats deadlifts. Then, train the rapid fire plyo seperately. Some people mix them into a superset. There's lots of ways to train.
Thank you very much for all of your instuction videos. My grandson is in love with baseball but I have been concerned with his average speed (40yd in BB Cleats 7.75) vs his otherwise awesome athletic abilities. There is no doubt that together (using your videos) we will boost his speed to bring him to the "front of the pack". Thanks Again!!!
thanks man! im in volleyball so the height would help a lot, and after doing this i feel really good! especially the beginning, those worked me a lot. i appreciate it man!
thank you for making this video i seen many plyo movies and you make them look like panzies like they only put out 60-70% of what they could.... i weirdly appreciate, if i wouldn't have found this video i would be half-assing everything... thanks again.
Great videos and great explanation as well, because even a fifteen-year-old, german boy like me can understand them... im inquisitive to see if the whole videos will help me jumping higher
ATP-CP = Adenosine Triphospate - Creatine Phospate aka the Creatine system, this system is used for short explosive bouts of exercise e.g. Jumping or Olympic Weight Lifting
im a 400m runner and one thing my coach told me was the harder you rip through (driving the knee up and back into the ground) the more propulsion you'll get
@MissEStarh yes you can! Get a parachute or if you cant get that get a jump rope and jump about 40 minutes a day,do sprint's in the park and lunges either with weights or none at a good distance will help trust me,I used to do the 40 in 6.2 seconds now I do it in 4.58 and all this training in one month,just train everyday,drink water everyday and for every meal avoid bread and fatty foods and you'll be good
You're the man! excellent video, explained more of the technique we used to run in soccer drills. BTW if ya got the time could ya toss some editing tips at some of my videos
i tried creatine and it made me a lot bigger, gave me more energy, i felt like i could and wanted to really push the weights. Weight comes off when you stop the creatine, a lot of it is probably water but it did leave me noticably stronger. It would be cool to see some trustworthy nutritional suppliment videos, there's so much crap out there.
İ did plyometrics for 3 month my vj improved like crazy i was jumping 31" now 39" its just awesome oh and the best thing about this is you dont need a gym membership
@bossofalltime not necessarily force=/ stride length flexibility and the mental decision to lengthen your strides is the only thing that's going to make them longer.
@alextoob1 I think you should really check with your doctor. It is important to eat a good balanced food. I had problems with knees before because of too much running and working like waitress. Salmon is very good for your joints.
Wow...I deff need to try this this summer...hope I'll be the best triple jumper like ever...lol...thanxxx dude...n y'all it's probably a beat he made or something to those that are asking what song is playing...seein as nobody knws what it is
Im a distance runner and started using plyo workouts for my kick. My teammates thought I was insane. I came back in the last race freshman yr and broke 20 minutes in the 5k. When I finished my coach asked "Where did that come from." I said "That came from what YOU and my team considered insane."
@rodsredrose Wow, you're the second person I've come across on youtube who actually knows what plyometrics are. Thanks for your comment, because most people (including some really fit dudes) seem to think that plyos are just jumping or even agility (think speed ladders and pylons). To be plyo, you need an explosive rebound on the stretch/shortening cycle.
This looks good as i will use the summer holidays to improve my sprint and jumping ability. But how often do i have to do this exercise and how many sets and reps ? Thanks
@icedog141 Actually the knee is unstable when the heel is off the ground. The most stability is when your whole foot is on the ground, with the center of mass a bit towards the toes.
Hey man, sorry to bother you, but could you please post the whole program somewhere. I would really appreciate it if you could provide to me what days you do what exercises, how many reps each workout has, and how long you should rest between each set.
@RiceNao thats good, if you keep working at it and doing what Destorm is, you can def dunk a vball or something that size in a few months along with you growing a few inches
once in sprinting tutorial it was mentioned to do this twice a week-it refered to 100% training, so I guess plyometrics count. Also it depends (so it was told) on how we feel with our bodies- so (here starts my interpretation ;) ) ...I guess its no problem to raise this number to 3 if we recover really fast and feel like doing explosive and plyometrics like 3 times a week.
@NinjaLinebacker I did football in highschool. and I know ppl who did Football and track in college. It's about the same, depending on how you're being trained. Track athletes also lift decently heavy weight. A track athlete also has to be lean as possible, but as you know thats not the case with a FB player depending on the position. Track athletes also need to be at 100% at their meets, while a Football player can be injured or slightly fatigued and still play.
@icedog141 A little but don't try and absorb all the impact in the toes. As you land do so on your toes-ball of the foot then let the impact roll your foot back slightly. Not too much otherwise you'll loose momentum and balance.
@pledys It's probably a matter of technique or how you land and rebound out of your landing. You're good in the 1st and 3rd because you switch the legs in those two phases. In the 2nd phase you jump and land off and on the same leg. Your coach should be aware of that.
@jarellbigballer97 do what feels right, i was at work my ankles were killing me, and to get to my work station i have to go up 4 flights of stairs. so i would with every stair step i would push off as hard and slow as i could into a toe raise and by time i hit the top no pain.... what I'm getting at is, you want everything well rounded no slacking muscles, do these work outs they really help on stride strength, height, length the whole shebang.
@Ekkiken Protein is vital to improve. I never used to think about diet but lots of top athletes were saying they consume lots of canned tuna, even Olympians use it. I started doing it and had huge improvements in speed and resistance to injury. EAT THE PROTEIN BIG TIME. There are other forms of protein, do the research. As long as you loosen up properly you should be ok, don't forget or cheat with loosening up, you only hurt yourself if you don't do it properly.
Hey man, I really like your plyometrics videos and I was wonderin if its okay to do plyometrics 4-5 times a week unless thats to much, like how many times do you do plyometrics a week? Anyways thanks, I think your plyometrics video is the most useful video for jumping on youtube. Thanks :)
@mesa134 In any workout, whether it is stretching, weight lifting, whatever, you need to work until you feel fatigued/the burn. For weight lifting, body weight training, etc. this is when you start to feel the burn/fatigued. For stretching you want to slowly go into the stretch until you reach the full extent of the pain zone then back off until you still feel the stretch but it isn't painful. Also don't "bounce" because that will actually tighten/shorten your muscles.
@123Steaky yeah experience will tell you how much you can do..for example in order to be flexible it takes time till you can touch your toes ..same with any other workout it takes time do what you thinnk your capable off and increase intensity on a good day and reduce intensity if your not feeling so up for in contrary to popular belief working out has to be fun along with challenging
Plyometrics is for explosive power, when your body is tired you can't do an explosive movement with maximum effort, so you will rest 2-5min between sets so you can do the set with maximum effort.
Perhaps the first major youtuber that I have seen who actually knows what a plyometric is
I keep coming back to this video. It's gold. I've been doing these exercises about twice a week for about 4 weeks now. I've been getting bouncier. They've taken on a much cooler feel.

how many reps per exercise?
I do like 10 for each set. And maybe do 3 circuits of all the exercises at the most.

Oh, I just spent the past 3 months or so doing single leg dead lifts and single leg squats before starting these.
Solomon Feinberg whats ur 100m time?
ur 100m time
still working out after 8 years?

The squat thrusts are awesome. Cut them out of my workout and my vert went down like 2 inches. Added them back in, going back up.
How much did your vert increase in total from doing this?
@@akalajones3719 I never got the message from your post. I would estimate that it added like 4 inches along with other work. It seems to build a good overall strength base.

He is an intellectual in sprinting.. he diserves a noble prize for coaching sprinters!
you got great videos and tips on your channel, man!
keep it up!
respect from Bulgaria
This is a nice video with very good information, plyometrics will enhance your speed part in the power=strength+speed ecuation. This deserves a thumbs up. By the way whats that beat in the video, its catchy
Thanks for showing this man, I am 6', 15 years old and can rim swing on a steel rim, and dunk on a plastic/ ally rim I hope these give me that extra boost !
Awesome workout. Can't wait to stir up my routine with some of these variations.

so would it be wise to do both?
Rahad Jackson Yea it would. You can also take the concept of max surge or strength training for your jumps to the next level and do squats deadlifts. Then, train the rapid fire plyo seperately. Some people mix them into a superset. There's lots of ways to train.
Don L interesting thanks. ive been doing it twice a week, 100% explosive plyos followed by sprints, with squats or deadlift ends.
Thank you very much for all of your instuction videos. My grandson is in love with baseball but I have been concerned with his average speed (40yd in BB Cleats 7.75) vs his otherwise awesome athletic abilities. There is no doubt that together (using your videos) we will boost his speed to bring him to the "front of the pack". Thanks Again!!!
I just finished Sprinting 1 & 2, and this one. You are bad a--. thanks for the tips I'll be incorporating so much of this!
thanks man! im in volleyball so the height would help a lot, and after doing this i feel really good! especially the beginning, those worked me a lot. i appreciate it man!
Absolutely. I'd say start with single leg jumps and the double leg bounds.
long rest periods are better because it works the Creatine Phosphagen energy system. Which is primarily used in jumping exercises
I've done these and they help tremendously.
thank you for making this video i seen many plyo movies and you make them look like panzies like they only put out 60-70% of what they could.... i weirdly appreciate, if i wouldn't have found this video i would be half-assing everything... thanks again.

How old are you?
rvind92g 15
jordan4541 that's great man keep it up

how. many days u do this?
Great video - This stuff is gonna get me over 50' for Triple (finally)...help me get back that spring I had as kid
One of his best videos. Watched it like two years ago.
Yes, I'm a triple and long jumper, and I have really powerful knee strikes and kicks even though I've never practiced martial arts a day in my life
This video is fantastic! Very useful, inspiring even!
Whoa. That was great. Thanks for the vid. I`ll be trying some of these out tonight.
thanks man it really help me i did this excersice 15 days and i can run faster than i thought
BIG FAN
Good stuff...Using some of the same concepts I use on my vertical jump channel.
Wish I had learned this 10 years ago in my 20's...
As a 38 year old man, I'm still gonna try them all though!
You are still young ✌️
How is it going now, three years later?
For beginners , it's always Difficult. It helped me a lot Mann , Thanx
Thanks 4 all the great video, you're very knowledgeable and helpful.
im a 400m runner and one thing my coach told me was the harder you rip through (driving the knee up and back into the ground) the more propulsion you'll get
Wonder if he can do a video for jumping walls, for Trump wall.
@MissEStarh yes you can! Get a parachute or if you cant get that get a jump rope and jump about 40 minutes a day,do sprint's in the park and lunges either with weights or none at a good distance will help trust me,I used to do the 40 in 6.2 seconds now I do it in 4.58 and all this training in one month,just train everyday,drink water everyday and for every meal avoid bread and fatty foods and you'll be good
damn storm you got jumps that was some crazy shit,and thanks for the pointers love the fitness vids just as much as the others
This guy is good and solid< i like what you had to say and what you showed, thanks
I'm getting into boxing, wouldnt have learned this back in the gym, thanks!
Thanks so much for sharing these workouts.
thanks man, haven't tried these yet, but they certainly look like they'll work.
You're the man! excellent video, explained more of the technique we used to run in soccer drills. BTW if ya got the time could ya toss some editing tips at some of my videos
This workout is crazy! Great tips Destorm! : )
Very good exercises. I'm putting them to work today!
DeStorm, thanks 4 all of your vids...word to muva...priceless!
thanks man, this is atcualy really helpful. i hear a lot about creatine but dont know what it does. does it also put water in your muscles?
@Namewasinuse You are right, but insanity is the most reps in a short amount of time aka 30 seconds. So that would also be explosiveness.
great vids man. im using your workouts and their helping a lot!
i tried creatine and it made me a lot bigger, gave me more energy, i felt like i could and wanted to really push the weights. Weight comes off when you stop the creatine, a lot of it is probably water but it did leave me noticably stronger.

***** Nah i see it now
@icedog141 Actually the knee is unstable when the heel is off the ground. The most stability is when your whole foot is on the ground, with the center of mass a bit towards the toes.
I train, but I don't look like that without a shirt yet. I'm 18. I'll be patient and continue to work. Great video. Thanks for the tips, man.
This is good stuff you should incorporate plyo into your workout every other day or 48 hours.
Great vid! I'm going to start trying these. Hopefully I will benefit from it and become #1 in my league!
nice Destorm, sweet vid, precise instructions, cheers!
This is the best video ever, thank you
Great vid, will imply this to my football (soccer) team.

I've been doing the exercises 3 times a week for a month and I was dunking by july 7 and I started around may 31
@freksho21 sure you will. don't worry. rehab takes time but you will be fine. just don't rush things - it may take 8 or 9 months.

48 inch vertical leap, very impressed, most nba athletes can not get that high,
very helpful video! and a beastly vertical! lol i get complements on 35 inches... destorm is a monster!
I just subscribed, best shit I ve seen on youtube for athletes!
good training tips, DeStorm. Thanx!
hey bro great video this is the best one i think for plyometrics. i waz just wondering how long u think it will take to c any results?
@DeStorm
cud u plz make another plyometrics video. like a "plyomtrics that work pt.2" for extra plyos workouts plz. thx DeStorm.
Who watching this in 2018/19
2020 set as hw lol
2020
2020
Bouta be 2021
2023!!
your videos are awesome, coolest guy on youtube
@icedog141 A little but don't try and absorb all the impact in the toes. As you land do so on your toes-ball of the foot then let the impact roll your foot back slightly. Not too much otherwise you'll loose momentum and balance.
That instrumental is pretty sweet man.
This workout is really tough but I felt like it could definately help me be a 5'6 white dunker
@pledys
It's probably a matter of technique or how you land and rebound out of your landing. You're good in the 1st and 3rd because you switch the legs in those two phases. In the 2nd phase you jump and land off and on the same leg. Your coach should be aware of that.
destorm is a mechanical monstrosity!! ur a beast.
hey love your videos i ran track.you go boy!!!!!! love yhe music it makes you move lol goood luck........
@jarellbigballer97 do what feels right, i was at work my ankles were killing me, and to get to my work station i have to go up 4 flights of stairs. so i would with every stair step i would push off as hard and slow as i could into a toe raise and by time i hit the top no pain.... what I'm getting at is, you want everything well rounded no slacking muscles, do these work outs they really help on stride strength, height, length the whole shebang.
awesome way to make your self fit
thanks for postin
your a great teacher keep um coming
@Ekkiken Protein is vital to improve. I never used to think about diet but lots of top athletes were saying they consume lots of canned tuna, even Olympians use it. I started doing it and had huge improvements in speed and resistance to injury. EAT THE PROTEIN BIG TIME. There are other forms of protein, do the research.
As long as you loosen up properly you should be ok, don't forget or cheat with loosening up, you only hurt yourself if you don't do it properly.
hey brother, good looking out. I appreciate it.
Hey man, I really like your plyometrics videos and I was wonderin if its okay to do plyometrics 4-5 times a week unless thats to much, like how many times do you do plyometrics a week? Anyways thanks, I think your plyometrics video is the most useful video for jumping on youtube. Thanks :)
Yea im on the vertical basics right now but ill be there in a couple months
@mesa134 In any workout, whether it is stretching, weight lifting, whatever, you need to work until you feel fatigued/the burn. For weight lifting, body weight training, etc. this is when you start to feel the burn/fatigued. For stretching you want to slowly go into the stretch until you reach the full extent of the pain zone then back off until you still feel the stretch but it isn't painful. Also don't "bounce" because that will actually tighten/shorten your muscles.
@123Steaky yeah experience will tell you how much you can do..for example in order to be flexible it takes time till you can touch your toes ..same with any other workout it takes time do what you thinnk your capable off and increase intensity on a good day and reduce intensity if your not feeling so up for in contrary to popular belief working out has to be fun along with challenging
i hated doing these at football practice but they damn well helped me get faster haha
Plyometrics is for explosive power, when your body is tired you can't do an explosive movement with maximum effort, so you will rest 2-5min between sets so you can do the set with maximum effort.
