Remember when 60 inch box jumps used to be huge and viral moment? Here’s a 14 yr old crushing it on the Ronin. Now that the Ronin plyometric machine has came about to keep athletes safe with its fully adjustable (12-80 inches in 1 inch increments) foam landing platform, IT’S GAVE OVER! Now that athletes have zero fear the sky is the limits!
Why Box jump? Leading Force plate researcher Dr. Hicks-Little discovered through a study on 9-time world Box jump record holder, Ryan Moody, a few interesting facts:
1. Box jumping isn’t a vertical or horizontal jump force, it’s diagonal.
2. Jumping to an easy 24 inches produced 2x times bodyweight in Force. A 60+ box Jump produced 4-5x bodyweight in Force. More force than Moody’s 44 inch vertical produced. Now that is explosive power!
3. THE LANDING HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH POWER PRODUCTION! Whether the knees are above the hips on landing or not had no effect on the power produced. The takeoff and intent to produce explosive power was the defining factor of explosive power produced.
4. The impact landing on the the platform is minimal and easy on the joints, no matter the height, your only falling 2-3 inches, so gravity never takes hold. It can trained Year because of this factor.
All 3 angles must be trained to the maximum effort and maximum height and distance-vertical, diagonal, and horizontal foot explosive power in the hips.
The king of vertical Jump training is and will always be the depth jumps and broad jump for horizontal, both can easily be done on the Ronin.
All max effort attempts can be trained on the Ronin plyometric machine the safest way possible and efficiently for all strength coaches.
