jumpsoles look good for strengthening the calves. i might try them one day. im gonna make my own. they also help stability if u use the proprioceptors. the super secret exercise is only to be done if u are at an advanced level of vertical training and jump and u need to make sure u warm up and cool down properly using the deep heat. they can be very useful if u are advanced and u can gain a few inches in a week using them. but dont become reliant on them. do them say one week every month incorporated in to a jump program. but remember its only if you are advanced

yeah its a 12 week schedule you rest in week 5. I dont follow any programs though i just throw together exercises I like from tvp and vjb and other places.

luke says dont become too reliant on them and that u can gain 3 inches in a week with them which is why i sed just do them lyk once a month coz he says they are very hard on the body. whats the program that u made up. could u send it to me? thanks

lol i didnt make my own vj e-book or anything sorry, but ill tell you guys if this exercise works good or not in a couple weeks maybe ill even do a journal.

cool. i just read through it in tvp and it says to just do it by itself. without any other program and only if ur advanced. have u written out what ur doing?

no i just do what i feel are the best exercises i do a lot of broad jumps, depth jumps, bounding, step ups ect. But I also like to put a focus on one legged stuff cuse im a unilateral jumper and my vertical leap is more important to me than the vj. But I think it says to do it in conjunction with a program.

ok then. well good luck with ur training
