The numbers behind the name
Reported personal bests from decades of multisport competition — basketball, football, soccer, track and field, and five dunk-contest wins. Facts Over Feelings means numbers get labeled honestly: these are Flash’s training-era marks, not certified meet results. The programs below are built from how they were earned.
/ Digital Training Systems
Programs built from lived explosiveness
Jump Higher System
Eight weeks. Two pillars: Jump Output and Air Skill. Most programs chase inches and ignore what you do in the air — timing, body control, finishing. This trains both, with controlled plyometric volume, tendon prep, and retesting built in.
Program details
- Duration: 8 weeks
- Primary focus: vertical jump output + in-air skill/body control
- Training elements: controlled plyometric volume, tendon preparation, and retesting
Density 14
A 14-day bodyweight density challenge. Push, squat, pull, and core work stacked through the day — volume you can scale, standards you can measure, no gym required.
Program details
- Duration: 14 days
- Format: bodyweight density challenge
- Equipment: no gym required
- Movement focus: push, squat, pull, and core with scalable volume

/ The Method
Old-school explosion,
modernized
Flash built his bounce in the 90s — Air Alert, Jumpsoles, thousands of reps, and multisport competition. The work ethic of that era was real. The programming wasn’t. FitFlash systems keep the discipline and the repetition, then fix what old-school training got wrong: controlled ground contacts, tendon and ankle preparation, landing mechanics, real recovery, and stop rules. More jumps don’t make you more explosive. Better jumps do.
