- Warnings and Cautions -

WARNING!! As with any intense training regimen, there is potential for injury. The principles and practices of this system are extreme and should be undertaken with extreme caution. A spotter is advised when performing heavy resistance exercises. The author takes no responsibility for any injury that the user may incur. In reading this book you hereby release the author of any legal liability in regards to these training techniques.

Any injuries that you may incur are the sole responsiblity of the participant.

Ankles:
Your explosion capacity will be incredibly strengthened. This means that there will be more pressure and risk on certain joints. Ankles are particularly susceptible to this problem. I will later recommend certain exercises to stabilize the ankle joint. However, I would recommend getting ankle braces. Contrary to athletic myth, they do not hinder your ability to jump or cut. Choose an ankle brace that has wrappable Velcro straps. The simple pull-on-braces are practically worthless.

Stress:
Your legs and joints will be under a lot of pressure. Although this stress can increase your skeletal strength, there are also risks of injury. To minimize the risks I would suggest getting a pair of well-padded shoes, insoles, or both. When possible perform the exercises with a pad underneath you.

Recovery:
One of the most common problems is that enthusiastic athletes do not give themselves a proper recovery. Working out and playing at full speed every day will not allow your muscles the essential growing period. NEVER work out the same muscle if it has not received 24-48 hours recovery. The recovery is necessary to strengthen your muscles, and to avoid injuries. Not respecting recovery periods will retard muscle gains and vertical jump improvements. It is never a bad idea to take an additional recovery day.

Common Sense:
You are a driven athlete, and you desire results. You will get them, but sometimes it is better to be patient. If something is uncomfortable, or you feel that you may be risking an injury, see a licensed medical professional. Ice your knees after every workout. I recommend buying wrap-around ice packs, which when not in use are stored in the freezer, that you can put on both knees so you don’t have to spend 30 minutes manually icing them after each workout.

Icing:
Icing your knees, ankles, or any other part of your body that may be having problems is essential to maintaining a healthy jumping condition.  I have found these wraps to be the most convenient icing method.  They have allowed me to keep healthy knees.
