Jump!

When I was in college, I had a 28-inch vertical jump. The last time I measured my jump, it was a mere 20.5, and I'd like to get back to where I used to be. A big part of it, I know, is to lose the belly, but I also need to build power in my legs. One problem I have is that the Gold's Gym they opened near me said that they were going to be buying bumper plates when they opened, but they never did, so I can't do Power Cleans at 100% effort because I can't drop weights. Other than squats, are there any good exercises for increasing my vertical jump?

    Hi!

    Jump Squats
    Glute ham raises
    Glute hip bridge (if you dont have a GHR bench)
    Hill Sprints
    Box jumps (obviously)
    And of course, more vertical jumps.
