1. What's the difference between Standard and Premium training programs?
Standard Program includes 3, 6, and 9-month periodized training cycles with monthly 1-on-1 video calls, one edited technique video breakdown per month, team builder access, text message support, and nutrition guide with recovery protocols.
Premium Program includes everything in Standard plus customizable periodized training cycles, weekly 1-on-1 video calls (4x more frequent), and athlete mindset with advanced recovery resources.
2. How does the online training process work?
First, you upload your jump technique video for analysis. CJ Champion then analyzes your jump approach and identifies improvement areas. Next, we schedule a Google Meet consultation to discuss your training goals and training age. Finally, you receive a personalized training program designed specifically for your needs and goals.
3. How much can I expect to improve my vertical jump?
Results vary based on individual factors like current fitness level, training age, consistency, and genetic potential. Most athletes see measurable improvements within 4-6 weeks with proper program adherence. The key is following your personalized periodized training plan consistently.
4. What's included in the in-person coaching sessions in Southern Los Angeles?
In-person sessions include professional vertical jump measurement, RSI (Reactive Strength Index) testing, real-time jump technique corrections, guidance on achieving your first dunk or learning new dunks, plus a consultation and personalized workout plan with professional assessment and feedback.
5. Can beginners join these programs, or do I need experience?
Absolutely! We work with athletes of all levels, from complete beginners to advanced athletes. Our comprehensive assessment process helps us create appropriate programs regardless of your starting point. Your “training age” helps us determine the right intensity and approach for you.
6. What should I include in my jump technique video for analysis?
Upload a clear video showing your full jump approach from multiple angles if possible. Include your typical jumping motion, whether it’s for dunking, spiking, or general vertical jump performance. The clearer the video, the better CJ Champion can analyze and improve your technique.
7. How often will I train and communicate with my coach?
Training frequency typically involves 3-4 sessions per week based on your personalized plan. Standard program members have monthly video calls, while Premium members have weekly calls. Both programs include text message access to your trainer for support between scheduled sessions.
8. What sports and athletes do you work with?
We work with athletes from all sports requiring jumping ability, including basketball, volleyball, track and field, football, soccer, and any sport where vertical jump performance is crucial. Our training methods apply to anyone looking to improve explosive power and athletic performance.
9. What is periodized training and why is it important?
Periodized training is a systematic approach that varies training intensity, volume, and focus over specific time periods to optimize performance gains while preventing overtraining and plateaus. This scientific method ensures continuous improvement throughout your 3, 6, or 9-month program.
