Vertical Jump-34 inches
QUOTE]

Thats impossible, or you are better than most NBA players and olympic high/long jumpers. Same with the Dad who thinks his son jumps 36 inches. Thats Michael Jordan's jump. The definition of a vertical jump is: the jump reach minus the standing reach. The "standing reach" is how high you can extend one arm above your head while keeping both feet together and flat on the floor. The jump reach, for a true vertical jump test, is to jump straight up without taking a step and touch the highest point possible.

Coach Rowland
12-21-2005, 03:09 PM
I could video tape him standing under a Basketball rim and have him jump straight up and you can see him hit his wrist on the rim... He has incredibly strong legs... How else do you think his little butt can out throw most kids way bigger than him in the Shot-Put??? That is a 12lb shot that he throws that far...

Did you happen to see his squat? His 40 time? He's only 155lbs...and that's after lunch... He is just strong in the legs... I only hope his upper body catches up here pretty soon... He still looks kind of scrawny..

I did a quick look up and found that Jordan's vertical was 48"... and since he is 6'6", I'm sure he looks way more impressive than my son...

tabortiger
12-21-2005, 07:41 PM
yeah man i know my vertical is in the 34-35 range and I know coach rowlands sons is 36 cause if a kids got strong, exsplosive legs and doesn't weigh all that much, he can get up there pretty easy. Plus I can dunk a basketball jumping flatfooted so...I mean you gotta have a fairly decent vertical to touch the rim at 6'0 at all. It's all in the olympic lifts. A lot of those olympic lifters out there have over 40 inch verticals because their lower body is so exsplosive and strong from the snatches and cleans and all that. oh yeah just to throw this out here I'm pretty sure Adam Nelson's vertical is about or around 39. pretty good for a guy thats 6'0 250 somethin. (or whatever he weighs.)
P.S. Coach Rowland: I think you said you were at Indy for the USATF JO's this summer? Did you happen to catch the intermediate boys discus?

Coach Rowland
12-21-2005, 08:07 PM
I did catch some of it... I caught the tail end of it before I had to watch my youngest do the Bantam Boys Javelin... I had to keep reminding my oldest son that was what he would have to do this upcomning year to be competetive... Discus is not his strongest throwing event for whatever reason... He is long, but for some reason does way better with the shot-put... He also seems to do real well with the Javelin (143')

I can't quite remember you off the top of my head... But I do remember the big throws that age group had... Very impressive all the way around...

Did you see the Youth Boys Shot-Put Finals? If you watched my son win it, you will know how small I'm talking about...lol... He had to be the littlest guy in the finals...

When he was younger he had quick arms, but his legs were lacking... Now, his legs are amazingly strong and quick....but his arm speed has gone down... So, now I'm trying to do some research on how to bring that back up...Using the heavier implements isn't working as well as I had hoped... But, he still throws the Shot pretty well without great arm speed...

He also seems to pop his hips better with the shot than the disc...really strange...

Coach Rowland
12-22-2005, 08:40 AM
Why would someone as a 14yr old...After winning his Age Group National Championship & Age Group Junior Olympic National Championship want to now switch to another set of events???

Last year he did mess around a bit with some other events in the local meets... 100m/12.05...400m/57.2...Long Jump/17'3"...High Jump/5'5"... So, he's not too bad, but doesn't train for those events either... He really loves the throws!! I don't think any of those other events were really competetive enough to take them to the J.O. qualifiers like his throws...

I'm 32 years old...5'9", 220lbs and have a 31" vertical myself... I don't find that hard to believe at all... I can still grab the rim from a stand-still... But on the other hand, when I was in High School, I did do the sprints and jumps... Being a Marine, I don't have the sprint speed I used to, but can still run about a 4.9 40... We normally run about 3-5 miles 3X a week for training, and not at a impressive pace either, I might add...

He is still growing, so I'm sure his maxes for the lifts will increase as time goes on and especially when he's done growing... I was lifting more weight at his age in the Bench(about 210lbs), never did Olympic Lifts, and only weighed about 140lbs... but, I was only 5'6"... Everybody's build is different... But I also wrestled 6 straight years and I truly believe to this day that screwed my body up big time... That's why I won't allow any of my boys to wrestle... No cutting weight for any of them...

I think the numbers are misleading. Jordan's official vertical was 36", while he was said to have a vertical of 48". To me, its just like the 40 times. If you are using a FAT system, on the track with blocks, all of a sudden you don't have everyone and there brother breaking 4.6 seconds. The system measuring should be consistent, so everyone knows exactly what a 36" jump means. I don't want to see a video of his wrist touching the rim- lots of 5'9'' athletic people can do that. I want to see his standing reach and his jump reach. He sounds very talented, and it looks like he will go far if his upper body catches up.

A 12.05 100 meter doesn't really match up with a 4.7 40 just as a 36" vertical doesn't match up with a 5'5" high jump.

In the end, it doesn't really matter, just a soap box. If you test all your team the same way, he is probably a cut above the rest anyway.

tabortiger
12-23-2005, 12:29 AM
no way. i mean people we are talking about MICHAEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
anyway I don't think anyone should be concerned too much with their maxes as a freshman considering he's still growing..........ok yall........today i measured my vertical.....right at 35. i stood flatfooted on astroturf with my hand reached all the way out on the those little things you slap.....i took my hand down, bent my knees.....and jumped straight up and slapped those little plastic dealies.......that is how i measure mine............i know theres several ways to do it but thats how most people do and bigtime combines and all........and thats all i have to say.

P.S. Coach Rowland again: A friend of mine on my team I practice with threw against your son i think.....hes a youth and took 6th in both shot and disc at Indy....his name is Ryan Minkley.

Coach Rowland
12-23-2005, 03:52 PM
Didn't use jump mats...don't even have any...

We actually tested outside off cement, against a brick wall using chalk marks and a measuring tape... But anyway... He is one of those kids who seems to jump better off both feet than one... He never really trained for the sprints or jumps. As we all know as throwers, many of the field events are way more technical than most running events... That being said, the high jump was more or less something he kind of screwed around with... It even took him about 20 minutes of warm-ups to stop jumping off both feet before the event even started at the meet he did it in...lol...

He is just explosive, not any real sustained speed... That's why his 40 is pretty good, but can't seem to hang on at the end of a competetive sprint.. But once again, doesn't train for them... Even at the start of his 100m, he looked really good to about the 50m mark... Then, the fast kids caught him and passed him up... He just concentrates on his throws... That's what he does best...

If you think about Vertical Jumps and all... Why didn't M.J., Kobe, or even Lebron ever consider doing the High Jump or Long Jump?? I mean have you seen these guys dunk on a basket from the Free Throw line!?!?! Thats 15' and their dunking on a 10' rim!!! They should all be high 26'-28' long jumpers or at least 7'6" high jumpers!!!! Why not go for the World Record in a couple of these events if it's that EASY!!!

Why don't all these 6'6" tight ends try to throw discus? Why don't all the 6'5" quarter backs try to throw the Javelin? Why don't all the explosive 6'5"/300lb lineman try to throw shot-put?? I guess we will never know the TRUE correlation of all these invetory strength tests and true desire, training, and practice to such technical events as the Throws. That is what makes our kind the true masters of speed, strength and desire to want to excel at such things...

Sorry for my little soap box... Still upsets me on why even the stinking Marathon gets more coverage than any of our throws on "Nationally" televised Track & Field Meets... I mean how exciting is it to watch someone run the same pace for 26 stinking miles??? I fall asleep on the first mile of the boring old race...LOL!!!!

Don't really know what picking the knees up would do to improve a vertical since you measure the difference of where the hand hits...

Tested by power output? Did you actually do the lifts or no? A clean&jerk of 350 is unreal, esp. when you powerclean less.


I did both by power output and by doing the lift itself then my Coach and I did the average between the two. and Yes the clean jerk is possible when you do it correctly.

This sounds an awful lot like people who claim they can bench 220 lbs 10 times on the machine at their gym. Power output whatever they may be, if it isnt a lift, it isn't legit. The rest of us are talkin about what we put on a free standing bar, nothing supporting it, nothing moving it but us.

Yes that is me. I am Justin White from McMinn County. Now I am in college. I go to East Tennessee State University. I am working with the best weight Coach in the Nation Dr. Mike Stone and I am also working with Meg Stone who holds the current collegiate records in the Shot Put and Discus in girls. I began lifting about 2 weeks after that state meet in which i threw 43.5 or something like that. Anyways now with the weights I am at 475lb on squat, 400lb on the bench, doing about 250 overhead squat, and 300 military press. With that i have practiced 4 times a week. I started at about 40 then slowly i have progressed to 55 right now in the shot and the discus throw is the same i started throwing about 100 and now with progression i am now at 185 190. I have just spent a lot of time in the weight room. And I am now a firm believer that the weights pay a big role. Sorry if i wasnt clear the first time.

Coach Rowland
01-26-2006, 12:43 PM
It was a hand timed 40... Still pretty good for a 14 year old. By the sounds of it, you all don't know many people who can run sub 5 second 40's... Or have verticals over 30"... I am almost 33, I pretty much run for conditioning and lift for tone and can still run a sub-five 40, still got about a 30" vertical, can still bench about 380 and can still SLJ over 9'. And yes I play rec-ball about 2-3 times a week. I'm only 5'9" and weigh 230lbs. NO LIABILITY to those either...kind of depends on how I feel those days... So, to take a kid who trains 6 days a week all year round with less than 6% body fat... I can easily make that assumption... I haven't questioned anyone else's performances on here...because anything is possible based on the training you do... Since I am not there to witness such things, it wouldn't be my place to make a comment on them...

So, I may understand why the constant need is out there to bash a kid who can...

As far as basketball, he did use to play... but when you have been in a different school each of the last 3 years due to the Marine Corps Father (ME) moving to execute the needs of our government... Most coaches are hesitant to throw someone else into a returning line-up, as is the case for football. As you all know, the individual events in Track & Field don't really require a returning line-up, just show up and the one who can throw/jump farther or run faster kind of earns his spot all on his own. And this is his decision to stick to the sport which he is good at... And he really enjoys standing on the podium at the end of a meet and getting that gold medal placed around his neck... It may be different this year since he is now in High School and he moves up an age group for USATF, but I'm sure he will still make many finals and have outstanding performances...

Come the end of the season, we'll just have to see where he ends up amongst the rest of the nation in his respective events... And I'm sure he'll be even stronger, faster and probably jump higher too... And yes he can dunk...at 5'9"...

It was a hand timed 40... Still pretty good for a 14 year old. By the sounds of it, you all don't know many people who can run sub 5 second 40's... Or have verticals over 30"... I am almost 33, I pretty much run for conditioning and lift for tone and can still run a sub-five 40, still got about a 30" vertical, can still bench about 380 and can still SLJ over 9'. And yes I play rec-ball about 2-3 times a week. I'm only 5'9" and weigh 230lbs. NO LIABILITY to those either...kind of depends on how I feel those days... So, to take a kid who trains 6 days a week all year round with less than 6% body fat... I can easily make that assumption... I haven't questioned anyone else's performances on here...because anything is possible based on the training you do... Since I am not there to witness such things, it wouldn't be my place to make a comment on them...

So, I may understand why the constant need is out there to bash a kid who can...

As far as basketball, he did use to play... but when you have been in a different school each of the last 3 years due to the Marine Corps Father (ME) moving to execute the needs of our government... Most coaches are hesitant to throw someone else into a returning line-up, as is the case for football. As you all know, the individual events in Track & Field don't really require a returning line-up, just show up and the one who can throw/jump farther or run faster kind of earns his spot all on his own. And this is his decision to stick to the sport which he is good at... And he really enjoys standing on the podium at the end of a meet and getting that gold medal placed around his neck... It may be different this year since he is now in High School and he moves up an age group for USATF, but I'm sure he will still make many finals and have outstanding performances...

Come the end of the season, we'll just have to see where he ends up amongst the rest of the nation in his respective events... And I'm sure he'll be even stronger, faster and probably jump higher too... And yes he can dunk...at 5'9"...



Everyone has **** up their ass at some point.. but a middle schooler running 4.5 in the 40 dash is rediculus, unless the idiot doing the hand time is closing his eyes and just clicking the watch at different times just for fun.. You do realize that 4.5 is basically the speed that the NFL combine accepts as being fast enough for the fastest positions.. including running back and quarterback, and that Xavior Carter, one of the fastest prepsters in recent years ran a 4.3????? Annnd, theres no comparing sub 5 to 4.5... running 4.9 is a stock time, at least a handtimed 4.9 is, and whether its handtimed or FAT, sub 5 is a world away from running 4.5... (think about it... 10.0 is a world away from 10.5, so for running half the distance, a half second difference is even a ton farther difference in speed)... Also, as far as vertical jumps go, the fact that you tried to pass that MJ had a 48' vert was enough in my mind to totally discredit you from knowing anything... so basically, please try to keep the totally bs **** you type on this board to a minimum (and it would be nice if some others *cough, you know who you are, cough* would do the same :)
