Your training makes sense. I can see why you’re progressing. Some small pieces of advice that few to no HJers are doing that will give you more advantages 1. You should weight train full knee bend (cheeks to sneaks on squats or ATG split squats). Lots of your weights are all in the partial hip hinge and knee bend range, you need to at some point stimulate your knee tendons by closing the knee completely. Also you should be tracking the weights you’re doing on tibs and calves with the same intent and care as your power cleans, and not just having them as a finisher for reps. 2. Practice an even amount of HJ reps from the opposite side. Like become the same height flopped on both sides. It takes less time than you think, since you already know how to jump off one side. Including circle runs and drills. You should be chasing no “weak” side. Ben Patrick showcases a study where long jumpers and also Christian Taylor (2nd best triple jumper ever) increased their PRs by training both sides. I talked to a 7’6” HJer and he said he got his opposite flop up to 7’ and then PRed that year. 3. Always time your sprints. Keep consistent records. Have someone film you using Onform or another slo mo app. You need to become measurably faster. You’re on your way bro! God bless.
I already do a couple of these things thank God haha. I time my 30 meter sprint monthly and I track my calve raise weight(just not these last couple of weeks). The weak side stuff is an interesting one. I've thought about it and I train my other side in regards to every other movement equally except the high jump(and circle drills now you mention it!). It's definitely something I'll consider and will do next session for fun hahha. But I'm a firm believer in shortened range of motion for maximizing strength. I will deep squat occasionally, and trap bar deadlift, for joint health. But it's just kind of my philosophy for maximizing performance. I really appreciate comments like. I love thinking and questioning training. Hope I didn't miss anything :)
I understand that full knee bend squats can be beneficial to strengthening the tendons and ligaments in the knee but there are more specific exercises like single leg drop and holds with 20kg and lunge hold isos. In hj your experiencing forces of up to 10tines your body weight in a gct of around .2sec a full depth squat does not replicate that at all
I haven't had pain in my knees for a good couple years. I got a couple of questions to help identify an issue though. How often do you train, plyos/jumps a week, how often do you weight train week and do you take deload weeks?
@@khi8620 I currently do plyos, sprints and jumps once a week each. With an easy lift on a 'rest' day and a hard lift after one of the track sessions. So still 3 hard sessions a week two ez sessions and I get a two day break during the week somewhere. Hope this helps :) But I guess u could do plyos max 3-4 times a week if u didn't' do anything else hahah
@matehj I have been over training, but the niggles don't seem to be going away since adjusting my training. My patella only hurts on some jumps, not all which it odd. I think it's due to my knee's stability being weakened. I had the opinion that every jumper had patella tendonitis lol.
@matehj I've also been having an issue carrying speed into my jump, I basically cut my speed around 3 steps out. I've been told I'm jumping off a three step run-up. Do you know any good drills to practice carrying speed into the take-off.
Haven't changed, I just have really wide feet. I jumped better in adidas and it's made objectively better, but after a while, I really just can't fit anything but the Nikes haha.

I really like your content. I hope you post more on how to strengthen your back and abs during the high jump
Loving that you showed some full routines with weights. I will definitely be taking inspiration from this
Keep on posting brother. I like your content. Keep going and keep growing.

Do you ever get pain in your mcl or patella tendon? My knee feels sore every workout now.
I haven't had pain in my knees for a good couple years. I got a couple of questions to help identify an issue though. How often do you train, plyos/jumps a week, how often do you weight train week and do you take deload weeks?
@@matehj how many times should plyos and jumps be done in a week?

I see that you’re wearing Nike spikes in most of the video have your opinions changed on the adidas/Nike spikes?
Haven't changed, I just have really wide feet. I jumped better in adidas and it's made objectively better, but after a while, I really just can't fit anything but the Nikes haha.
@@matehj so In competition which one would you wear
@@BobBob-kc3ye nikes. only because they fit me better. if you dont got fat ass feet id recommend the Adidas still!
You need more rotation over the bar
I can agree with this. Do you have suggestions?
i need them aswell😭
Do you have a twitter or instagram
Both, but not rlly related to this haha. Insta is matepoduje
