4-Week Jump Higher Program!

This is a 4-week program designed to take your performance to the next level. If you are following the program you will:

Jump Higher Play Stronger Be More Explosive Become Less Injury Prone

This program is a 3-day training plan week but you will also have access to a speed program that you can implement on the other days. Although this program stresses increasing your vertical, you will also develop strength and improve your change of direction and lateral quickness.

Each session will be 60 minutes long and will involve athletic focused movements and also resistance training exercises. You will need access to equipment such as barbells, Trap bars, Plyometric Boxes or something to jump on, DB's or KBs, a Foam Roller, and Resistance Bands. This is not a bodyweight program therefore if you do not have access to the above equipment this program is not for you.

If you are an athlete that wants to jump higher, play faster, and elevate your game then this program is for you.

Coach Bruce has seen results such as 2-4 inches on his athletes vertical after only 4-weeks of training with him at his gym.

You to can see the same results.

FAQs
What if I do not have access to the equipement you listed?
This program is not for you then
What I am going to play pick up or do skills on the same day ?
We recommend giving yourself 4-6 hours inbetween your skills session and training session to ensure you are not overdoing it.
What if I have knee pain?
First consult with a doctor or physical therapists. If they clear you, watch the videos on afte the 3rd workout that discusses what you can do if you have knee pain. You may want to liten the load, add a resistance abdn around your knees, spend more time foam rolling, or take a day off.
What should I do about nutrition?
If you have not been doing anything strength training I suggest you eat more food when implementing these workouts. You will need more calories to help fuel you through these sessions and recover.
What if a video does not work?
If a video does not work please email mark@fit-strength.com or type in the nam eof the exercise in YouTube.
How do I test my vertical if I do not have any fancy tools?
You could put tape on your finger and touch the backboard and see where you get; You can measure by trying to dunk a small ball and gradually see if you can dunk a larger ball; there are some apps that you can use to test your vertical as well.
Is this just a one time purchase program?
Yes! You are buying this program with no virtual communication with me about the program. If you have questions feel free to DM me via IG
