Vertical Jump Power Calculator

0Peak Power (watts)

Estimate the peak leg power you generate during a vertical jump using the Sayers equation, a widely cited formula from exercise science. Vertical jump height alone tells you how high you leaped, but power in watts captures how explosively your legs produced that jump, which matters for athletes in nearly every sport. The Sayers peak power formula is sixty point seven times jump height in centimeters, plus forty five point three times body mass in kilograms, minus two thousand and fifty five. Enter your jump height and body weight, choosing metric or imperial units, and the tool converts to centimeters and kilograms, applies the equation and returns your estimated peak power in watts. This is an estimate from a population regression, not a lab measurement, but it is a useful and repeatable benchmark. Everything runs in your browser.
