Want to add 2-8 inches on your vertical jump? Freaky Explosive Athlete is designed to make you a stronger, more athletic, injury resistant athlete.

The first 4 weeks focus on building a solid athletic foundation to prepare your body for the weeks to follow. The next 4 weeks focus on building specific strength. Throughout the entire 8 weeks we will work on getting explosive by jumping and throwing medicine balls in various ways!

This is a great program for any athlete that wants to get consistent in the weight room. If you're newer to weights this is perfect for you. If you've taken some time off from lifting, this program is also perfect for you.

Phase 2 can be repeated for as long as you can milk gains out of it! Which could easily be for a full year! You're getting a full years worth of gains!

If you're serious about your sport and getting that college scholarship, it's time to jump in head first! Don't wait any longer.

Jump Higher
I've used these same strategies on hundreds of athletes over the years. If you put in the effort, you WILL gain inches on your vertical. I've had numerous athletes gain over 7 inches on their vertical on this program. It works if you do!

Get Strong
Are you sick of getting pushed around on the court? Your opponent easily bumps you out of the lane? Those days are over. This program will have you feeling strong and confident.

Reach Your Goals
Who doesn't have the goal of playing college basketball? That's the dream for any hooper. I've had the privilege of playing Division 1 and professional basketball. I know what it takes to get there. If you're not on a progressively challenging weight lifting program, you WILL NOT be able to match up against high level competition. Everyone is good. Everyone is strong. Everyone is fast.

FAQs
How many workouts do I get?
A whole years worth! It breaks down to 4 workouts a week: Two days of explosive medicine ball throws and jumping plus two days of strength work. The program is 8 weeks in length, but can be repeated as many times as you want for a year.
Weeks 1-4: Building an athletic foundation
During the first four weeks we will be accumulating volume and developing athletic capacity. This phase is imperative to future success in the weight room.
Weeks 5-8: Building Hooper Strength
During the next four weeks we will be getting strong! This is where you transform yourself.
Week 9 and Beyond
You can continue to do the last 4 weeks again and again as long as you can milk gains out of it! If there's a period of time that you stop lifting, it would be wise to run it back from the start again!
