Platform Shoes

[se 34]

i was reading vjb and he dosent reccomend platform shoes.
Then i was reading through tvp and he highly recomends platform shoes.
since the program i have created involves both of these ebooks. Should i use the Jumpsoles or not??

No dude do it with out less chance for injury. Plus luke lowery gets paid to endorse them.

Fact: They DO work for building your calfs
Fact: They DO give you ankle fractures.

yeah i've been training with strength and jumpsoles for over 2 yrs. and my ankles "crack" everytime i step...my calves are bigger my quickness icreased just like my shin splints but i found something to fix that and my vert probably increased 5'' from them. Pros and Cons just like anything else

TVP uses Jumpsoles for an exercise called Superhops, if you read carefully, Luke Lowrey says and warns you that you must be strong enough to do it and you should only use it as a SUPPLEMENTARY exercise, meaning you should not be doing it by itself. It has bennefits once you plateaued your VJ or you can squat and deadlift more than 1.5x your body weight.

yo i also use jumpsoles religiously and i do get shin splints and pretty much only my left ankle cracks sometimes but it doesnt even really hurt. The gains that i get from jumpsoles are simply ridciculous but i do occasionally get shin splints and you said you found something to fix it and you gained like 5 inches from it, could you tell me what you did for this, 5 inches would be crazy for me was it stretching or something?
