If you are overweight/obese or don’t regularly exercise then this program is likely to do more harm than good. If you have a history of hip, knee or ankle injuries you should probably steer clear. That’s if they manage to complete the 8 weeks without getting injured! Who Shouldn’t Do This Program?
Most of the Vert Shock community see results around 2-4 inches. If you see the banner at, the program claims to provide a guaranteed 9-15 inches increase in your vertical jump. One of the main selling points of the program is that it doesn’t require access to a gym. It mainly consists of plyometrics, which are jumping exercises that can be done on a gym mat/grassy area. The program was created by a former basketball player (Adam) and an elite dunker (Justin). Vert Shock is an 8 week vertical jump training program.
