Here's an idea:
Two explosive workouts per week:
Workout A:
Depth jump 3x5 from medium box
Jump squat with reset after each rep: 3x5 with 30% of your 1RM
ALTERNATED with
1/4 rhythmic jump squat: 3x10 with an empty barbell
Squat 6x1 with 90%
Workout B:
DJ 3x5 from high box
1-2 jump squats 3x5 with 30% 1RM
Explosive squat 6x2 with 60% 1RM
There ya go. Try that for a month or so and see what happens.
EDIT: Oh, and one more thing: when you go to jump and jump a few times and think "this sucks, I'm giving up - don't. Continue to GO GET IT". There's been a handful of times I saw you write that and DO that which makes me think you're missing a ton of possible jump practice because you just don't like how you move and just quit and go strength train again and get worse and worse plyometrically.
You have to ask yourself "what's wrong with my jump as far as movement goes". It could be that you're so quad dominant or something, but honestly you don't look bad (in fact you look much better than me) off two feet. Very quick and snappy. It could actually help if you would "load" more in the plant and benefit from your strenght more instead of bouncing so quick off the ground like you do now. I don't know.
