Genes + training. Some people just naturally jump higher than others (genes) and if you keep trying, by especially doing things like jumping squats, you can help improve on your natural ability too.

The maximum height reached during a vertical jump is primarily determined by the amount of force generated by the leg muscles, as well as the speed and technique of the jump. Factors such as body composition, strength, power, and coordination also play a role in determining how high someone can jump.
