its for overall athleticism, something /fit/ knows nothing about
>>38068439
It trains explosive leg movement which is useful for any sport involving running.
>>38068439
It's for those dank internet likes/shares. While they can jump, it's not as high as it looks because they're doing some random-ass shit with no frame of reference or sense of scale.
>>38068546
They always seem to jump above their body height which is pretty impressive as a frame of reference.

Some of them are weightlifters
I did it for volleyball and another one of my friends did it for basketball

Box jumps and leap frogs =/= vertical leap.
You can only train vertical to a certain extent; genetics.
>>38068487
Athle..what?
>>38068567
Jumping over their height?
That seems impossible.

I think he meant atherosclerosis. I mean, as a power lifter it's the only word beginning with ath I know.

not the way most of them are doing it:
for explosiveness to be useful you want to practice triple extension, not your ability to pull your legs up to climb the box.

>>38068567
Most of them are a test of hip flexibility as opposed to veritcal jump ability
Here is my favorite video of jumping manlets. Look at that likte guys jump its fucking insane. It's like gravity stops for a second https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6n73sH29IG0
