The Importance of the Hop Step
LeBron James performing a hop step in the 2013 NBA Finals.
The hop step was the euro step of 2004, meaning how popular the euro step has become, the hop step trended the same way. Kids were practicing it at every park and every gym trying to be the first to use it amongst their friends. A move that has been around for awhile, some also call it a pro hop or a jump stop, made its wave throughout the world in a more creative way.
The move became really popular when NBA Live 2004 added it to their realm of moves along with the new control layout that included freestyle dribbling. A big improvement towards trying to make the game more realistic, gamers enjoyed the new additions. Although personally, I remember the hop step giving the offensive player way too much of an advantage because it made it way too easy to score in that game.
The hop step is a lethal move if used correctly. It’s mainly used when trying to split two defenders on the way to the basket or in other instances just to gain a base for liftoff when driving. What makes it a great move is the options you have once the move is performed. You can either hop step and go straight up or when you feel that defender on your hip, you can hop step, pump fake and get the defender in the air and step through to go up to the basket.
The move has gained some controversy in past years because many players started doing it wrong. When executing the move, it’s a must that you land on two feet simultaneously or else it is deemed a travel. Due to so much confusion when it’s considered a travel and when it’s not, NBA Head of Referees Joe Borgia gave his insight on when this movie is a violation.
Many guys in the league have adopted this move today and we see it from players like LeBron James and Derrick Rose. However, Jamaal Crawford may be one of the craftiest at the move as he puts the ball behind his back making his defender look silly. We all know he’s a wizard with the ball but when he’s coming at you full speed and hits you with his “shake and bake”, there is nothing you can do. The hop step really puts the offensive player in a great position to score and it’s a move that all players looking to be a top scorer should master.

We asked our coach Sergey Nagorny to give 5 tips to help improve your jump.
"The more power you have and the more you can apply power to the ground, the higher you can potentially jump. To increase your strength, you can choose any exercise: pulls, squats, lunges. Do what you like best and gradually increase the weight of the weights. "
Sergey Nagorny
Physical trainer training
Strength increase
Speed increase
"In addition to strength, the jump depends on speed, so this component also needs to be worked on. The easiest way is to sprint for short distances from 10 to 40-60 meters, and also work with sleds. "
Sergey Nagorny
Physical trainer training
"This advice applies to both the workout itself and resting between sets, as well as recovery between sessions. People often start turning speed and jump workouts into endurance work. If you don't recover enough between sets and between workouts, then you you will never develop your jump to the maximum."
Sergey Nagorny
Physical trainer training
Proper rest
"Same skill as throw, snatch, etc. You have to be able to move efficiently. Jump more often - move more efficiently, but don't forget about recovery."
Sergey Nagorny
Physical trainer training
Jumping is a skill
Sleep more and eat right
"We are all looking for ways to recover better and use different modern gadgets to do this, but it all starts with simple things. Good sleep and proper nutrition are must-have items for a better recovery that everyone has at hand. "

How to learn to jump high? - Sport Collection
Higher! Farther! Faster! - the motto of any athlete. Not a single victory is possible without this attitude, but today we will talk about “ABOVE!” About the dream of many athletes to have good jumping ability, because not everyone has this talent, but many people are interested in whether hard training can achieve high jumps. This goal can be faced by both amateur athletes and professional athletes who must master the high jump in order to achieve long-awaited victories.
The ability to jump high, while controlling its body, it is required in such sports as:
Basketball
Ski sports
Snowboarding
Jump -ups 9010
parkour
acrobatics
choreography
extreme sports
figure skating
volleyball
gymnastics
dancing
And this is not the whole list of sports where jumping ability is needed as an additional skill.
How to learn to jump high?
High jump is a great physical activity, so the development of such a skill should be approached seriously and under the guidance of a person who understands how it is done. Proper strength training, systematic exercises and rational load distribution will help everyone master the technique, but it is important to understand that this will take time, which means perseverance and patience. The main thing is to know that the goal is achievable and competently move towards it.
The development of jumping from a vertical position develops coordination, strengthens muscles, which makes the athlete better control his body, his endurance grows. Any jumper knows how to land correctly from different heights, which is always useful not only in sports.
The jump mechanism consists of the following phases:
takeoff run
preparation for the push from the ground
repulsion
flight
landing
What muscles work when jumping?
Physical fitness in general is the key to successful training, you can not work only with the muscles of the legs, for example, while having a flaccid shoulder girdle.
Calves
The calf muscles should be developed for a strong push from the surface, as well as to prevent various injuries.
Ankles, feet and ankles
They have a very serious load during the run-up and especially landing, so these fragile areas of the legs should be strengthened by gymnastics and be sure to warm them up before training. This will help avoid injury.
Knees
Considered to be one of the most fragile places during jumps, therefore it is worth not only learning how to land correctly and safely, but also strengthening the knees by doing special exercises.
Muscles of the thighs and buttocks
The development of these muscles will help you make a good run-up and a powerful push. The anterior thigh muscle helps to throw the body up, which means that a lot of attention is paid to strengthening it.
Experts advise starting such classes, preferably with an experienced trainer, but if you decide to do it yourself, then listen to our advice.
1) Safety
Do not start training on a concrete floor or grass without elbow and knee shock absorbers. For jumping at the initial stage, mats or tatami are well suited to prevent injury during falls.
2) Complete warm-up
Muscles and joints must be thoroughly warmed up and stretched to be ready for a big load.
3) Regularity of training
Classes should be with a gradual load.
The best exercises for developing jumping ability
There are many developed techniques for developing jumping ability, but many consider one of the most effective exercises to be jumping on a box or platform. This helps to jump high without a run-up and strengthens the muscles of the legs. I must say that the first time not everyone succeeds in jumping onto the box from a place, especially if it is high. The main thing is not to despair, but try to take a lower platform, master the jump, and then gradually increase the height. For those who are unable to push off from a place, you can start with a small take-off, which we gradually begin to reduce. After such a workout, be sure to give the muscles a rest and do not forget about stretching to relax the muscles.
Landing is an important part of the jump, because it is at this stage that you can get injured if you do not follow the technique.
And it consists in landing on soft, bent at the knees legs, as if springing them, when jumping from a great height, you can squat down. Straight, tense legs, and the same body are unacceptable during landing. The torso is tilted at a 45° angle, the legs are bent at the knees, the toes are pulled down because the landing starts on the toes, then the heel drops. Hands should be put forward a little.
Training program
Stage one - jumping rope.
250-300 jumps, non-stop and fast. Such jumps develop breathing, strengthen all the necessary muscles and joints. To increase the load over time, you can perform jumps with weight and with a lot of jumps.
Stage two - squats
These exercises are best done with weight, it can be a backpack with a load or a barbell on the shoulders. You need to perform 10-15 squats, 5-7 approaches with breaks of several minutes. This exercise perfectly develops all the leg muscles necessary for high jumps.
Step three - calf raises
Raise your toes as high as you can and gently lower your entire foot. You need to repeat from 20 to 50 times, until burning in the calves.
Fourth stage - jumping
You can perform this exercise in different ways - jumping on a box or platform, or high jumping to any goal (basketball basket or a ball suspended from a tree) You can jump from different takeoffs - from 10 to 5 steps, pushing off with one and two feet.
How often do you practice?
The optimal frequency of training is two or three times a week, the duration of the session is 1. 5-2 hours.
It is not necessary to exercise every day, so that there is no great burden on the body. To begin with, all exercises should be performed at an average pace, within your own physical capabilities.
From session to session, the number of approaches and repetitions will increase, the observance of gradualness in any training leads to the expected result.
Training equipment
knee pads, elbow pads
weights - special belts and sandbags for legs and arms, or a backpack with something heavy
rope
dumbbells for jumping exercises or exercises for weights
stable box
Psychological aspect
Sports psychologists explain to athletes how important the mental attitude is before any training in order to achieve their goals. It is important to clearly visualize in your imagination all the stages of the jump in detail: run, muscle tension, upward impulse, landing.
