The Chronicles of Jump Manual, Vlog #4

Hey Guys! Sorry, yet again, for the tardiness of this video. Exams and schoolwork have been really good at keeping me from training as regularly as I want. You have to remember that I'm a "student-athlete"..."STUDENT" first. HAHA. I also had to prepare and practice 24/7 for a fashion show that I was recently in that raised money for a Children's Hospital in Detroit. We had a great turn out and raised over $3000 for the kids!

Anyways, I'm currently in week 6 of the Jump Manual and the rate of gains on my vertical has slowed down quite a bit. I haven't seen too much change from the results that I received back in week 3 (grabbing rim with two hands as opposed to one). I've been trying to dunk off the alley-oop bounce because I just don't have enough strength to carry the ball up with me yet. No successful dunks yet, but I'm just going to keep at it and work as hard as I possibly can because "...With God all things are possible."

God Bless!

P.S.- The next Vlog will most likely be up in 2 weeks. So, look out for it!

ok im an average alyer sophmor ad i really need to know if this works my holl life is ahead of me i need to know do you really recomend this program

[MatthewNineteen26]

@jcmaldona1423 Yes. The program works. Don't expect to see gains just because you bought the program and did week one, though. You will really need to dedicate 100% of your time and effort into the program to see any sort of significant gains. Basically, you will get out what you put into the program. Good luck, bro.

ay tico bruh im 6'2 nd dunk but im tryin to windmill and ect.. im going to order the jump manual ,but i was wondering do i need a gym for the jump manual or can i train at home with jump manual .... and if i can do it at home do i need wieghts

[MatthewNineteen26]

@lodiballer24 You can do the jump manual any where. You don't need weights or a gym, but it is much more convenient to have the two, especially with how quickly you will progress. I would suggest getting a gym membership or at least purchasing some weights so that you can track your progress quantitatively. Good luck!

[ballerlh2314]

are you even gonna make more vids or are you done tryin to dunk?

[MatthewNineteen26]

@ballerlh2314 I am planning on making more vids soon. I have been working 70+ hours/week as a personal trainer, but I have still been keeping up with the jump manual and plan on finishing week 13 this week. I have seen some slight gains, but I plan on adding more weight to my squat to see faster gains. I'll keep you posted on the video status.

[amorgan2610]

You should practice trying to dunk without the oop, eventually you'll be able to jump as high with the ball as you can without. You can even use the weight of the ball in your hands to give yourself extra upward momentum. I'm at almost the same stage as you, I can so nearly dunk but I end up hanging on the rim while the ball doesn't go through the hoop. Good work though keep it up.

[fedec51]
