Strength Training to Increase Vertical Jump | Basketball | Volleyball | Phase 1 Elite

The video from Phase 1 Elite showcases a strength training session specifically designed to help athletes in sports like basketball and volleyball improve their vertical jump by building foundational lower-body power, explosiveness, and athletic capacity. Led by trainer Mike Waters, the video takes you through a series of targeted strength exercises that focus on developing the muscle groups most responsible for jumping ability, such as the glutes, hamstrings, quads, and core, and explains how proper strength work prepares the body for more explosive movements and plyometric drills used later in vertical jump programs. Throughout the session the instructor emphasizes correct form, controlled progression, and training principles that help maximize functional force production and translate strength gains into higher, more powerful jumps during sport performance.
