Default Vertical Jump Training without weights

Hi, I was wondering if anyone had an suggestion for vj training without weights? I only have 2.5 lb ankle weights but I heard they were pretty bad for your ankles. I am naturally a high jumper, never done any training and im just getting back into bball and I can almost touch the rim ( few inches off ) I'm about 5'10

Thanks in advance

like aj said vjb bodyweight leg strength is an exceelent program (actually make tat the best) way 2 go 4 ppl who dont hav access to weights

u can also do plyos

depth jumps,skipping rope,burpees,jump squats,alternating lunges,burnouts the list is endless

gud plyo programs:
-vjb(number of pros 4 different methods)
-gmv
-athletic advantage
