| Why plant a corn stalk? A fast growing tree might be a better idea as they live longer. After several years of doing this you should be able to jump 7 or 8 feet in the air. (Or if you want to take it to the anime extreme, an old master can leap over 50 year old trees in a single bound.)
Personally I am only a fan of the wieghts if you are jumping out of a ditch, otherwise the impact coming down might be a bit much. Remember, the force you push up with will be the same force you hit the ground with (no matter how much weight you have on) however wearing weights will make that force less forgiving on your knees and ankles. Jumping out of the ditch and you hit the ground with less energy, which is a good thing. |
