Louie Simmons' guide to building explosive strength for jumping, sprinting, and any sport that demands vertical and horizontal power. Westside Barbell trained athletes who hit 60", 63", and 63.5" box jumps. This 275-page book lays out the methodology that produced those results, drawn from Soviet sport science and four decades of Westside experimentation. This is not a generic plyometrics manual. It is a complete jumping-power system built on the same Conjugate principles that produced over 100 all-time world records in powerlifting at Westside, applied here to the explosive demands of running, jumping, and field sport.

It uses special exercises to perfect technique while cutting down sprint times and increasing jumping ability. This training can and is performed without the epidemic of injuries that comes with Linear or Block Periodization." Dedicated to Tadeusz Starzyński, Henryk Sozanski, and Y.V.
