1-3 Done You may have noticed that this has alot of exercises that don't involve
legs and that is because this is not only a vert program but also a overall program perfect for centers and forwards
Overall Tips: It will take time for your body to adjust to these new exercises, and even more time to see results.
Go slowly and work your way up. It's the safest way to guarantee results. Some companies offer "strength shoes,"
which build up your calves, thereby increasing your jumping ability.
