Do about 20 jumps, 3 times or until you can’t do more.

2. Stairs! This is easy and effective. Start by simply running down the stairs and back down. Then go up the stairs by jumping a ladder with each step. Then jump up the stairs with both feet. Ten Jump 1 foot down the stairs. All of these exercises work your calves tremendously, which is an important part of jumping height. Do these workouts every day.
