nothing it doesn't work. you need to do real workouts with periodisation, 1 strength phase, fades into explosive phase. check vertfreak101.com

Hey buddy,

You just need a good old fashioned weightroom and solid lifting program. No vests, or any other Jump tool..... You and I are the same height and I weight about 170-175. When I was your age I weighed about 160. So we need to pump you up with some good muscle build up!
