Is it possible to use hydraulics to run faster or jump higher?

For example, lets say an exoskeleton was made, could hydraulics be used to run faster (by increasing stride length) and jump higher? And if so what would be the best way to absorb shock produced by impact from greater heights?
I’ve seen that on youtube but it looks like it only increases strength/endurance. It doesn’t show anything about it making the user run faster or jump higher than a person could without.
