Five Star Jumping Program |
The difference between this program and others is that this program works on jumps that you use in the game of basketball. It also works on one leg jumps enabling more powerful drives. Lastly, it increases endurance, making 4th quarter jumpshots feel the same as second quarter. This program should take no longer than 15 minutes and should be done 4-5 times per week.
