Best Vertical Program – Watch Out For These 3 Scams

It is a frustrating experience searching for the best vertical program primarily because they all claim to be the best.

Take a look at the websites of The Jump Manual, Vertical Mastery, the Vertical Bible, and the Vertical Project and I assure you they will claim to be the best vertical program.

If you are ready to buy one of these programs, how do you choose? Our research has shown that there are typically 3 scams to watch out for:

1. Monthly coaching – does the program have monthly coaching? Most of best vertical programs do have monthly coaching, and some of them are legitimate. But the legitimate ones should only be $10-$20 per month. However, be aware of the ones that 1) are expensive (there are some that are over $150 per month) and 2) are not upfront about their monthly fees.

It’s disgusting, but the fact is that some of the not so best vertical programs charge a monthly fee for coaching and only tell you this in very small print when you buy their product.

2. One size fits all – the one size fits all approach is not necessarily a scam, but you still have to be aware of your options in choosing the best vertical program. I mean, does it make sense that the program would be exactly the same for someone who is 5’3″ tall vs. someone who is 6’6″ tall?

Most of the vertical jumping programs are designed for mass distribution, so it only makes sense that they would take a one size fits all approach. While convenient for them, it is not an ideal situation for you.

Some vertical jumping programs on the market are software based that design training regimens based on your current skill level, body type, etc. The price of these is the same, if not less than, the programs that are one size fits all. So, wouldn’t it make sense to get a program custom designed to you and only you vs. a cookie cutter plan?

3. Bogus claims – the best vertical programs will not make bogus claims. How do you tell if a program is making a bogus claim? Usually you can tell if they make claims like:

- achieve a vertical leap of 50 inches in 1 week (I’m exaggerating, but you get the point)

- you won’t have to workout your legs – this is a lie. Any program that says you will not have to squats, calf raises, etc., is just trying to get you to buy their product. A solid vertical jump programs will have you workout your legs.

- Eat anything you want – yes, I have actually seen this. Bottom line is this is false. You have to follow a good diet to get an awesome vertical leap.

Follow these guidelines and be wary of the seductive sales pages online trying to sell you the best vertical program. There are some fantastic choices out there that will help you learn how to dunk pretty quickly, you just have to sort through the junk.
