Can too much muscle be counterproductive in how high you can jump?

Too much muscle weigh you down, from being able to jump higher?|||Well, in an interview with Jamal Lewis, former NFL running back, he had to stop lifting, because the amount of muscle he was gaining, was reducing his flexibility and lateral movement. Not everyoe gains that kinda muscle, but if your genetics are prone to muscle growth like his, it may be a hinderance.|||yeah if you don't run and stuff.





I ran when i used to lift and i had an insane vertical despite being heavy with muscle.





had to eat a ton stay in shape though so i dropped the weight.|||There is probably a point in time where too much upper body muscle can weigh you down but if you're developing your lower body as well then you should have enough leg muscle to help propel you into the air.
