Strength and Vertical Power is an advanced 4-day training program engineered to develop elite lower-body strength and explosive athleticism. Built around the Front Squat, Hang Power Clean, Romanian Deadlift, and Bench Press, this program combines foundational barbell strength work with vertical and lateral plyometrics and single-leg power and strength exercises to produce a well-rounded, high-performance athlete. Each session is designed to maximize force production, improve rate of force development, and translate directly to sport — making it ideal for advanced athletes looking to elevate their power output and on-field explosiveness to the next level.
