The capability of exerting such a rapid force, or the ability of gathering all of your strength and supporting one jump in the most rapid time possible that a man can accomplish this.
With these things in mind, for you to increase vertical jump, you will have to work on your harnessing and explosive strength gathering and put it all in one jump. You have built strength fast so far and an additional exercise which is supposed to help you is called power clean.

The exercise will allow yourself to train your body in becoming more proficient at working with heavier weights at a more rapid pace. The routine will give your body the much needed power for vertical jumps.This special move is based on heavy lifting, and it represents you raising heavier weight above ground and to your shoulders, and holding it there. This action is done in three separate moves. Firstly, the phase is the same as doing a dead lift. You raise your barbell from the ground and keep it firmly to a level corresponding to your thighs by making sure the weight is resting upon the back, the thighs and the arms.
The second stepinvolves the explosion which consists of jumping up in the air while holding the weight. The last and final step is structured around holding your barbell in a rack position while having bent elbows and pointing out while the barbell rests on your deltoid muscles.
You should shift the movement of your weight from the thighs and swing instead of lifting, on top of your shoulders while making sure you distribute the weight in a firm and even manner.
Doing this exercise multiple times and in a correct way is extremely important, before considering adding additional weights to the mix.The moment you have become skilled at properly executing an exercise of this type you will begin to observe a definite change in your vertical jumps.
