Welcome to the Maintenance Program.
Maintain those gains.
The maintenance program consists of one workout a week. The main objective of this is to maintain the gains in your vertical jump made throughout the Vert Shock program. If you combine these maintenance workouts with regular activity like basketball practice or pick up games you should be fine.
Important Things to Remember.
-
1
Do your exercises on a moderately soft surface.
Try to avoid doing your jumping on concrete or any other hard surface. The ideal surface would be flat grass because it has some give to it. This will help absorb some of the impact when landing.
-
2
Do NOT train when you are hurt.
If you are injured from your sport, you should not do your workouts. You need to be healthy in order to give it your 100% maximum explosion. If you are injured and going only 60% this is not going to help you and will in the long run end up working against you.

Consult a physician before starting Vert Shock.
Make sure you are healthy and able to complete the exercises. The materials and content contained in this website, products, emails, messages, or consulting are for general health information only and are not intended to be a substitute for professional medical
advice, diagnosis or treatment. -
4
Always complete your Dynamic warm up.
This will recruit the muscles we are going to be targeting. Avoid static (stationary) stretching before the workout.
-
5
Take the prescribed rest.
Reducing your rest periods below what is outlined in the workout sheets is not going to help you. We are not doing this for cardio. We are doing it for explosion, and explosive movements require rest in between.
