With pivot 2.2.5 you have to set resize to 2, not 50. Try again. I'll show you a jump I made a while back in a sec - I just have to find it.

Jump example:

((Very very old, but the principle is there. A jump like this lets you exhibit physics, easing, looseness, and a basic effect. It's great for about med beginners))

The push off is so forceful that it's made the ground shake. I think that answers your question.

The push off needs to be faster and you should have heavier spacing in the air. I think you're lacking easing in places too. It's an improvement though.

Bigger change per frame. To move something slowly you would move it a tiny bit each frame. To move something fast there would be a big difference between each frame. On a jump you want it to be fast, but don't forget the easing.
