"my stored kentic energy" kinetic energy implies that it is stored and you store chemical energy, anyways ⊂=-҉Ξ҉-=⊃ Verb conjugator, plus herb inhalator ⊂=-҉Ξ҉-=⊃

Increase flexibility and try step-ups and you should get a higher jump.

yeah i recommend forearm strength and strength on your balance like while you jump like, your knees and hands have to have good coordination as you glide up in the air just start off relaxed then put the force into it and go as high as you can
