Advanced Vertical Training: 12 Week Program to Increase Your Vertical Jump Over 6 Inches

INTRODUCTIONThe contents of this book deliver advanced resistance training techniques and exercises for experienced athletes looking to gain an edge over their competition. Please be advised that the specific training techniques utilized in this book are for athletes with years of experience in the weight room and have already developed a foundational base prior to engaging in this program.The Advanced Vertical Training Program is divided into three phases, each emphasizing unique qualities that result in a well-rounded, explosive jumper. Each phase encompasses four weeks of intense training that is to be performed four days per week. It is suggested that the days should be divided with a rest day in the middle. It is imperative that the athlete is able to properly recover and regenerate from these intense workouts. We suggest executing workouts on a Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday schedule with rest occurring on Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday, or similar. In order to perform at peak performance, a proper balance of work and rest is pertinent.Phase 1: Foundational Strength creates the important strength-based qualities needed to increase force production at lower velocities. Exercises during this phase are performed with near-maximal weights at slower tempos.Phase 2: Bridging the Force – Velocity Curve initiates moderate to heavy weighted exercises performed at much higher velocities. This phase a hybrid -focused using the increased force producing capacities developed in Phase 1. The implementation of contrast training methods and increased plyometrics are introduced during this time.Phase 3: Peaking Performance focuses on the specificity of jumping with the highest velocities possible. Increased rate of force production and force absorbing capabilities are developed and showcased. It is at this point, your vertical leaping ability will change drastically.Each program is sequentially divided to showcase the description and detailed pictures of each and every exercise performed. We have also supplied the full program in order (and much larger) in the final 12 pages of the book.MEDICAL DISCLAIMER: PLEASE CONSULT A PHYSICIAN PRIOR TO ANY EXERCISE Read more
