Air Alert

has anyone used it before? if so, whats it like?, does it work?

 

Here we go....This was a crazy topic on Slam3.I completed the first 2 weeks like a year ago and i noticed improvement, but i started getting a little pain in one of my knees. So I stopped.You just have to be smart with it, because it can cause an injury. If you do use it, do the drills on a soft surface and make sure you follow the rules. Dont over do.So for your question it just depends if you do it right.

 

what do you think went wrong

 

I'm guessing my legs weren't strong enough to start off with and I was still growing added on to that.ORI did one or some of the drills wrong and/or I didn't rest correctly.

 

Maybe this is a stupid question but what exactly is Air Alert?

 

its this jumping program to increase your vertical.

 

I never tried Air Alert before, but I tried JumpSoles and those things work. I gained like 8 inches on my vertical and I only did about 4 weeks of the program... I need to start it up again.

 

Where do you get Air Alert or JumpSoles?

 

I got air alert from mixmakers.

 

Yeah...I want some JumpSoles.

I've tried it for about 6-7 weeks and I can almost dunk. I believe if I went through with it I could. It is EXTREMELY hard though. It take a helluva heart to jump higher to do it. Also if your legs are weak you might find it too hard. 14 years old is probably the bare minimum to start, or you could injure your legs a lot.I'm continuing over the summer.Anyone know how Nate/Spud got their sick hops?

 

ELiiiTE, where did you get it?

 

I searched it on Google. There is a schedual on what to do on what days. It was on the Slam3 forums, might still be.I suggest use the latest version, the other ones have found to injure some users. I used version 3 i think.

There's so many fake ones out there. I'll get it up here in a little.Ok here it is: To find out how to do the exercises right just search AA3 and you should be able to find something that explains them

 

I currently do air alert, im in week 6. Its getting really hard to do though.

 

has there been any improvement or anything?

 

Lefty, I don't think the one you posted is right. I found a website and it gives you the chart and it tells you how to do each excercise. The chart you posted is basically right, but there are just some minor things that are different.
