You ever have that old friend that – whether it’s been 5 months or 5 years – whenever you talk it just feels easy and natural?
Well I definitely have a few of them, and one of those guys is Jay DeMayo.
And if you’re interested in jump training and how to help your athletes jump higher, you’re going to love this week’s episode!
Jay is in his 22nd year as a strength and conditioning coach at the University of Richmond, and his 20th year working with the men’s basketball team in 2024-25.
And while I know he’s passionate about everything strength and conditioning, one of the things old Graybeard talks about the most is how to better program and coach jump training…\
…so that’s exactly what we’re going to talk about today!
Extensive short coupling jumps are vital for building a foundation in jump training.
– Jay DeMayo
If you want to give your athletes real-world strength that will carry over to the court…
…help them build the power and explosiveness to blow by defenders or finish at the rim…
…or give them the brakes they need to stop on a dime and stay healthy, you need to join IFAST Basketball Insiders!
Each and every month, you’re going to get access to high-end content from myself and trusted experts that will help you write better programs, coach more effectively, and get the absolute most out of your workouts.
With everything from sample programs you can swipe and deploy, to case studies showing real-world results, and even exercise breakdowns and tutorials, my goal is to make sure that every program you write and exercise you coach is more effective for your basketball players.
But the content is really just the starting point, as every month we’ll have a Q&A call where you can ask me anything about your basketball players.
And last but not least, when you join IBI you’re going to be surrounded by a community of basketball strength and conditioning coaches – people who are not only doing this at a high-level themselves, but who also want to help you succeed as well.
If you’re serious about taking your basketball strength and conditioning skills to the next level, just head over to IFASTBasketballInsiders.com to get signed up.
I can’t wait to see you in there!
