I have really good jumps, but i want hyper extended jumps! I know i need to roll my hips more any tips or dills that help you? :)
 
get two other people one to hold ur feeeet upp in a strattle position and ur on ur butt and the second to pull ur arms idk if that makes sense but i could post a pic if you want
 
Try sitting really hard in your jumps. Like as you snap your legs up into your jump, sit. Hope this helps. :D

P.S. you might fall on your butt the first few times, but that's kinda normal.
 
aim for kicking the wall.. that what im alwys tolld to go. this will get hip more flexablity and you will be able to hyperextend. also just go back to sitting in your strattle splitt but make sure that your toess are pointed as far back as they will goo.. good luck!
 
This is what I did and still do to keep my jumps hyperextended (specifically toe touch)
drills:
- sit in a straddle and do leg lifts/circles without stopping. Start with right leg and one hand on each side of your leg. Make sure you're not leaning back. Then left, then both legs. Make sure when you do both legs that your hands are in the middle and definitely NOT leaning back
- If you know about the ab workout called v-ups, then do that, but a toetouch at the top. When you lift your legs up and your arms at the same time, snap your legs out like a toetouch.
- do at least 15 toe touches everyday.
- Do splits every day before and after your toetouch work out
- Ab workouts in general help for stabilization while doing a toetouch
- and while standing (do it while watching tv) do leg lifts. So you'll stand (for example) on your right leg with your arms in a T. With your left leg, hold it up (Make sure you're rotating your hip with your left leg. As in, make sure you knee is facing behind you) and hold it. Your butt will cramp. But it'll get used to it after a while. Then switch legs.
