for events like high jump triple jump, can elastic/tendon strength be trained

[xxispawn01xx]

for instance doing push press does it 'strengthen' my tendon or ability to hold force on jumping events?

I'd recommend reading the entirety of Chris Beardsley's Strength is Specific, which is only $2.99 on Kindle, (You can download the app and read it on your phone if you are like me and don't own a kindle), but Beardsley wrote an article specific to the High Jump here

That article was EXCELLENT. And yes it can be trained. Including with barbells
