No you do not. Air Alert: The Complete Vertical Jump Program, version IV is a 2 phase program which includes Air Alert (15 weeks) and Air Alert Advanced (6 weeks).
You receive both programs with your order.
Air Alert Advanced is designed to help you move beyond your vertical peak that Air Alert, Phase I puts you at. You wait 1 month after the Air Alert 15 week phase and then you can choose to do the 6 week AA Advanced stage. Air Alert Advanced is strictly optional. But you will want to do it.
Make sure to wait the full 1 month before starting it.

Can I skip weeks? Can I go from week 1 to week 6 if it's too easy?
No, we strongly do not recommend this. Your legs must be prepared for each succeeding week and this can only be accomplished by doing each previous week's workout. Skipping weeks puts stress on your legs that they are not yet ready for and may possibly cause injuries.
Can I do Air Alert 2 times in 1 day? Will I gain more?
No. Adding additional days or additional workouts will only overwork your legs. We designed the program to maximize your jumping. If you alter it, you will reduce the chances of reaching our guarantee.
Can I wear ankle weights with Air Alert?
We do not recommend this. Ankle weights pull down on your ankle, hip and knee joints when you jump. This can possibly cause some problems in the future. If you are insistent on adding weight to your body, we recommend a weighted vest. The vest distributes weight evenly across your entire upper body and pushes down on your body as opposed to pulling against joints. However, we still recommend natural body weight training with Air Alert.
Does Air Alert cause muscle imbalances like these website say?
No, it does not if the athlete follows the program correctly and does everything that is stated in the DVD. Many athletes that use the program fail to work their hamstrings which is crucial to avoiding muscle imbalances. The program DVD and training booklet specifically states and stresses to work the hamstrings 2 days per week.
Many athletes try to get the program for free on the internet. What they do not realize is that they are not getting the full written and DVD version. They are not getting all of the information. In other words, athletes are doing it incorrectly and not even realizing it. If they do experience muscle imbalance, then it's because they've missed vital information that we send to all athletes in the complete program.

Does Air Alert cause knee problems?
No it does not. Air Alert is actually safe for athletes to use and actually supports the knee joints. The knee, itself cannot actually be strengthened; it can only be supported. It is a joint that allows for flexion and mobility. The knee is supported by ligaments, tendons and muscles that surround it. Typically, knee injury occurs as a result of traumatic injury or sudden movements that strain the knee beyond its normal range of movement. The knee is not generally designed to accept side stresses such as when cutting from left to right and sudden stresses of this nature can cause acute injuries.
The Air Alert exercises and the program are safe for a variety of reasons. One, each exercise follows the actual motion of the knee joint. The exercises all involve the normal bending of the knee and there are no side stressing or hyperextension jumps involved whatsoever.
Two, the Air Alert program is a very progressively planned program. The program starts off with low reps to get your legs and knees accustomed to the movements. Each week the repetitions increase and your lower body is better able to acclimate to the routine. There are no sudden movements by following the program as defined. We do not recommend skipping weeks for this reason. Jumping from week 1 to week 5 is too sudden and can overwork your legs.
Three, the Air Alert program is all natural body weight training. There are no weights required. Your legs and the ligaments and tendons simply undergo the normal stress of your body weight. Adding weight to your body will cause sudden stress and may cause injuries.
Four, the Air Alert program totally strengthens the thighs, buttocks, hamstrings and calves. These muscles become stronger each and every week and support the knee and provide additional tension on the ligaments and tendons thus supporting the knee and making it able to withstand more stress.
Since we revised Air Alert and developed Version IV, we have not received 1 complaint from one customer that has actually purchased and used Air Alert correctly. The criticisms you hear are simply from our competitors trying to overtake the program's effectiveness and popularity.

Does Air Alert have a guarantee?
Absolutely!! Air Alert is guaranteed to help any athlete 11 years and older jump 8 to 14 inches higher over a 15 period. If the program does not provide the results that we guarantee, the you can keep the program and we will still refund all of your money including shipping. All you have to do is use the program for the full 15 weeks, document the results on the workout chart. If you don't add at least 8 inches to your vertical, return the workout chart as proof and we will then give you a full refund.
What age is Air Alert recommended for?
I recommend Air Alert for athletles 11 and older. Because the program is all natural body weight, it will not affect growth or bone stability as weight training might do with younger athletes. For example, a person weighing 100 lbs will only push his body weight and not more. This natural way of training is the safest way to train for any athlete.
Air Alert - Introduction
Hello all,
Because I have received so many emails from users about Air Alert and so many requests to start a blog, I've decided to start one to answer any questions about the program that I published over 19 years ago. Of course there have been revisions since the original Air Alert. Currently I am offering Air Alert, version IV which is by far the best and most complete program to date.
Many of the questions I get are about defending Air Alert against my competitors claims. In the past, I felt that competition is competition if it is truthful; however, recently many of "so called vertical jump experts" are starting to annoy me only because they post false claims against Air Alert. So, I feel I must defend the program.
Websites like Vertical Jump Zone and Vert Jump make claims that Air Alert does "countless" number of sets and damages your knees. Well, countless implies infinite. Honestly, do you think I would have you jumping 24 hours per day. These people are simply pushing someone else's vertical jump program via an affiliate and they truly have no idea what they are talking about.
Air Alert does work and it works based on a principle of Habitual Jump Training. You can visit the site for more details at www.airalert.com.
In the 19 years that I have been selling Air Alert I have never, not once, received a complaint from an Air Alert user and buyer who has claimed that it hurt them. Hogwash!! The people pushing programs like Jump Manual and Vertical Jump Guide (which are identical by the way) have nothing better to do than to criticize Air Alert only to foster their gimmicky programs.
If you have any specific questions about the program, just let me know and I'll be sure to answer on the blog. You can email me at timur@airalert.com.
This blog is mainly to address any questions you may have before you buy and start Air Alert. It does works. Just look at YouTube and search Air Alert. Would people post videos of themselves if Air Alert didn't work?
Later.
