He said vertical, I'm taking it as a claimed 40" vertical.
If it's box however, lol.


What's the highest you've heard of Tom? You've been around some pretty explosive guys.

The NFL tends to top out around 45" (47" is the record I believe) and I know a 50" has been claimed by a Cuban Volleyball player whose name currently escapes me.

Box Jump is a jump onto a box of a given height - a vertical is the difference between the highest point you can touch with your heels on the floor (for some reason) and the highest point you can jump up and touch.

On box jumps you can jump up and then draw your legs up, so theoretically the numbers could be 20" or more apart.

I could but only search the same google enquiry as you to find out.

My best was 1.05m but not since climbing to the wrong side of 80kg.

When i did it it was done with a machine, didnt touch anything. Think was done on bodyweight and air time or something, not really sure how the machine worked.

41.3 inch. Im assuming all sprinters are good at it? I was actually beaten by the two sprinters in my class at the time, they were county level, trained with dwain chambers. They got 41 and 42 so i didnt realise 40 was even good at the time.

Yeah you jump on a force plate and then a machine does some magic and gives you a number

Is anything over 35 not classed as a very good vertical??

I bet Ronaldo has a fantastic vertical.
