Dunk Week 49

Oh, what a quest this has become. After over a month off, I'm back, and still catching up, now with some consultation with Kelly Baggett.

I'm 35, 6'2", and working hard. Thank you for not hating.

Again, one inch a month is 40 inches in 40 months...it doesn't work like that. Regardless, good luck in your own endeavors, don't be a hater.

hell nah that shouldnt be taking a whole year... if you can touch the rim you should be dunking in 3 months... run bleachers at the local high school, and hit the leg press that should be suficiant

[jdlava]

So what you're saying is if i can get rim, I should be able to get another 6" in 3 months? I disagree. By that logic, i should get a whole foot in 1 year.

[maradona87]

Man i really admire your persistence, but i'm a bit disenchanted with Kelly Baggetts Vertical Jump Bible (which i also own) after seeing this. I mean shit, it should NOT take a whole year, and you seem to be doing everything right.

[jdlava]

I hear ya. But there's so many different workouts, depending on your strength and body type. Also, I'm not doing ideal workouts for 2 reasons - 1. i'm 20 years older than most, 2. I don't play basketball, so i'm never in great jumping shape

[maradona87]

I see what you're saying, but the program is marketed as a standalone system, it doesn't say anywhere in the publication that you must play basketball concurrently (though i agree, it probably would be beneficial). Regardless of hops, do you feel it has improved your overall strength and fitness much?

[jdlava]

well, at the end of the day, i'm not dunking, so it's not working. That said, age & lack of intensive exercise aren't helping.

white guys are genetically jealous of black guys...we jump higher so what you guys got more money and smarter

@XxEchoSniperxX I think not cause he don't have much frames. But I think the focus should be muscle gains. Everything else is separable weak bullshit.

[MariasPussyLicker19]

Where you at? Do you work hard on perfect nutrition regime aka 6 times a week balance feedings? That will do great impact plus creatine

[XxEchoSniperxX]

your horrible at workin on your vertcial. im 14 and worked for 2 and a half months was dunkin easy.

[JPMartin5]

OK. Thank you.

[sackmaster91]

Nah you don't even have monkey arms man. I'm 5'11 too and my reach is 7'7 so you are maybe a lil above average. A lot of dudes are our height and have reaches of around 8' or so... They are mostly black tho cus black people just have longer arms in general just the way they are built. I need to have about a 36" inch vert or so to dunk I'm 5 inches taller than this dude... so yea for the argument there is no way he can dunk with so called short or average arms.

[BillyBobTS]

wow your weighted squat form is totally f'ed.

[JPMartin5]

Hey, I'm 5'11" and have monkey arms and touch 7'9", so if he's 5'6" he probably touches 7'2". 36" would only get him to 10'2" and that's not enough to dunk.

[dtothediesel]

No. I am 5'8-5'9 with short arms and would be able to dunk easily with a 36 inch vert. I can grab rim and I come no where close to 36 inch.
