Was playing hoops the other day and one guy said he needed to leave which would have left us with just 9 guys. So I told him if I dunked, he had to stay one more game.

The last time he played with me was about 6 months ago which was before I started my vertical jump training using the Jump Manual. So, I don't think he thought there was much chance of me dunking.

This vid shows what happened!

  • how often did you increase the weight for squat? I can do 275lbs 4-6x/set , so I'm thinking about raising it 295 next week, but I will be on vacation for two week, so I'm not sure if I should raise it 2 weeks later, I might get weaker in 2 weeks? and for the calf raises/lunges how much weight did you use? I lose flexibility when I do heavy on calfraises. I'm also not sure if that's better than lighter weight with more flexibility. btw, how's your progess?

  • @airbong23 increase the weight as often as you can! when your on vacation, do some single leg squats (pistol squats) to keep your strength up...unless you feel like your body just needs a break. then just take the time to rest. i've been battling some injuries the last few weeks so haven't been able to train (back and ankle). today is my first day back to training...so excited to get back on it.

  • I think 36-37" running vertical. I can usually hang on the rim on good days, but that's about it, and I think I jump lower when I try to dunk, but I think I will be able to throw it down once I reach 40" consistently. I have lower shoulder than other 5'11" probably close to 5'9" guy's shoulder height.

  • @airbong23 what is your reach?

  • I uploaded another short footage, the camera angle was bad, but you can see that I'm jumping little higher than the other day. Still it wasn't my best jump, it was after 2 intense games (3vs3 semifinals, and I shot pretty good and long 3s to win :) ) but I think I got 2 inches higher than last time.

  • @airbong23 those are better jumps for sure man! what is the highest you have ever jumped?

see all

  • @myjumpmanual 7'5" 

  • aboutt the core, I do about 2 min planks each sides 2-3sets, lower leg lifts (40-60times 3 sets sometimes with 20lbs ankle weights), and 30-40 crunches 3 sets, about twice a week.

  • thanks for watching. I do ATG squat with lower weights(<200lbs), and I try to go parallel with heavy weights. That squat video is from last year, and I think I already showed that squat video to Jacob, but he didn't comment much on it. I think I go lilttle lower now. I'm gonna play ball on Thursday, so I will try to take a footage after I'm warmed up. Not sure I will fully recover from yesterday's exercise tho.

  • @airbong23 yes, i think your technique is pretty good actually. would be interested in seeing your jumps when you are warmed up . i think on your running jump could be a bit more aggressive but could be due to not being warmed up. i didn't see any real obvious mistakes. are you doing much core work? on your squats, i would see about going lower...didn't look like you going to parallel and also try to explode up more quickly. i'd show those to jacob during next coaching session as well
