What is the Power ↑ Program?

The Power ↑ Program is a scientifically designed, high-performance training system developed by Ryan Ford and Apex School of Movement. This program helps athletes and parkour enthusiasts develop explosive power, speed, and agility while maintaining sustainable strength and mobility.

Whether you want higher jumps, faster sprints, or stronger climb-ups, this program combines weightlifting, plyometrics, jump training, and bodyweight movements into a comprehensive system designed for maximum performance gains.

Why Explosive Power Matters

Parkour is a power sport. Your ability to generate force quickly impacts everything from jumps and landings to flips and vaults. Power alone isn’t enough—without proper mobility, strength, and skill, you risk injury. The Power ↑ Program ensures that your gains are both effective and sustainable, allowing you to perform at your peak safely.

Program Features & Benefits

This is version 4.0 of the program, refined from over 8 years of athlete development at Apex Boulder. Key features include:

• Customizable training templates based on initial assessments

• Multiple program levels to match your fitness and experience

• Integration of scientific principles like SAID, progressive overload, complex training, and plyometric action

• Focused improvements in jumping, sprinting, and climb-up performance

• Short-term peaking cycles (6–12 weeks) for competition or performance goals

By following the program, you’ll gain measurable results in:

• Jump height and distance – broad jump, box jump, vertical jump

• Sprint speed – acceleration and deceleration improvements

• Climb-up efficiency – faster, more technically sound ascents

• Overall athletic performance – combining strength, mobility, and skill
