| Summary |
"Jumpmetrics is the complete program that will give you an edge in any sport involving quick first steps, cuts, and especially jumps." "Jumpmetrics contains a series of functional tests that will measure your ability to move and react and help you determine the best starting point for your training in the programs presented. The detailed programs are broken into three levels. At each level, you'll find 12- to 16-week programs to boost you to new heights of performance." "By combining traditional strength and plyometric exercises with postural, balance, and stabilization training, Jumpmetrics conditions not only the prime movers but also the stabilizing muscles and antagonists - helping you move more efficiently while reducing your risk of knee injury. You'll also learn about the proper joint position during high-speed loaded movements so that you develop better body control."--BOOK JACKET |
