ABOUT Vertical Jumpers:
Using the Vertical Jumpers you can jump train with heavy resistance without shoulder or back pressure.
Resists vertical jumps, broad jumps, lateral jumps, bounding, squatting and more! This makes the Vertical Jumper a fantastic Track & Field training device.
The Vertical Jumper consists of the three stretch cords, padded adjustable waist belt, padded ankle cuffs with stirrups and instructional manual.
Adjustable resistance of 40, 80 or 120 lbs. To adjust the resistance, add or remove the stretch cords. Three stretch cords come with the Vertical Jumper and are 40 lbs. of resistance each, so use one, two, or three cords depending on the resistance you want.
DRILLS with the Vertical Jumper: Note: On all control jumps, hold the bottom (ready position) for a two-count before jumping again. Watch your alighment and posture. Using a mirror is helpful.
BEGINNER (all done with light of no resistance):
1) Bench or Chair Squats - Do 15 squats. Lightly touch your buttock to the bench, plyo box, or chair.
2) Box Step Ups - Raise your hands overhead and do 15 alternate leg step ups onto a plyo box.
INTERMEDIATE (all done with level of resistance you have built up to and feel comfortable using):
1) Control Vertical Jumps - Jump vertically as high as possible, reaching for a safe item, such as a basketball net. Land like a cat, controlled.
2) Control Lateral Jumps - Jump laterally (alternate your legs) as far as possible left to right. Your form should look similar to a speed skater.
More exercises and warm-ups are included in the pamphlet that you will receive with challenging training tool.
