Problems/Solutions
Problem
We take it for granted that an athlete will know how to jump or land.
Solution
Teach the landing first. Step off a 12 box, landing in a quarter squat stance with back flat, knees over toes, body weight distributed evenly on the power pads of the feet with the heels slightly elevated. Landing should be soft. Teach the jump second. Slight knee bend, powerful upward extension of arms with forceful hip extension. Literature states that you should be able to hold the landing for at least 20 seconds.

Literature states that you should be 14 years of age and have a squat strength 1.5 to 2.5 times your body weight.
Problems/Solutions
Problem
Training intensities are too high.
Solution
Master double leg jumps first Bounds Hops Then depth jumps
Depth Jumps
Box Height:6 to 24 No longer than .15 second ground contact time. Land on the balls of the feet without heels contacting the ground.

Miscellaneous
Variety- change exercise every two weeks. Cycle- 2-3 weeks only, one week off through the cycle with no plyometric work done the week before you test. In most cases, all exercises and drills are safe if introduced at the proper time, in the proper sequence, after adequate preparation, and with consideration to the progression as it relates to the individual.
