Hey Isaiah. I don’t normally leave comments but I wanted to say thanks for your work on this channel. It’s been a really great resource for me in reaching my jumping goals. Keep up the great work
Same thing here lol I'm 45 and haven't played any bball since I was 32. Started back in October and have gained back some abilities and iq of the game. I gained another 15 lbs of muscle back and lost 3"+ inches on my waist from 36/38 to 33/34. I'm grabbing a 9.5' room now but I'm still lacking on my overall jumping ability as well as strengthening my left knee that I injured many years ago. Cleaning out old scar tissue and waking up my body too. I wish this sort of education was around 30 years ago so we could have been better athletes! I salute u guys getting back at it again!
@@elancedin7204 nobody cares about some water in the corner lol. especially in the winter courts are super dry and need to extra moisture to stay grippy
Thank you so much for this quick guide! Definitely showed me that I've been crashing and going short with my block foot instead of jabbing the ground! I'm super stoked about my quick gains because of you!!
Brother i just love you man, From the bottom of my heart . What you have done providing everyone with the free training . The training you have designed is just pure perfection man
Big shoutout to Jonathan Clark aka JClarkTheJumper for helping me come up with the visual descriptions of being low and fast at takeoff that I showed at the beginning of the video. During all star weekend we taught jump technique to literally hundreds of kids and this video shows exactly how we taught it!
My goal in this comment is to say the same thing in a different way using my experience. Volleyball players call this an approach. An approach typically consists of 3 or 4 steps. The last two steps are called the step-close (penultimate-block as Isaiah puts it). If you are taking a 3-step approach, think about the speed of your steps in order as slow, faster, fastest. Anyways, thanks for the video, Isaiah - love your content as always. Hope this comment helps someone!
That actually really helped me out bro…as far as logic goes and how it helps with increase your vert just by small technical issues most of us never even paid attention to
Bro big respect to you for what you do, there is really not that much videos on youtube with such detailed technique breakdowns, you're helping players fr🔥
Vert Shock turned my basketball game upside down! Going from zero dunks to slam dunking in just 4 weeks. You can find it here while it's still available: ua-cam.com/video/vmqOgSmTCQQ/v-deo.html To anyone who wants to increase his vertical jump as well: - Maintain a balanced diet rich in protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats to fuel your workouts and support muscle growth and recovery. Stay hydrated to optimize performance and prevent fatigue. - Consistency is key to seeing progress. Stick to a regular workout routine and gradually increase the intensity and difficulty of your exercises over time. - Set specific, measurable goals for your vertical jump improvement to keep yourself motivated and track your progress. See you guys when you reached your vertical jump goals!
Great tips man! Lots of people just give tips to improve your leg strength, but a lot of jumping is technique. this is a quick and easy explanation of said technique!
No lie my man, I practiced this form and actually grabbed rim, and not a youngsta anymore.. Thank you for the info and quick breakdown… Now comes the practice…
Hey buddy, for real I know how to jump and I taught both sons of to dunk and they can do windmills all day. You are 100 percent correct! Perfect video. Congratulations!!
I did this in my living room and then I hit the living room fan. I can touch it without doing your strategy, but I didn’t even try. This works really good.
Hey Isaiah! I just dunked on 9 foot 11 today. Your videos have inspired me to continue training and one day (hopefully this summer) I'll get the ten foot dunk!
Hey isiah .. I've been watching your videos and I went from 18 ( without Training or ever jumping ) to 25 in about two to three months ! I wish you'd make more videos on knee pain tho !
Amazing how far penultimate tutorial vids have come. There are countless out there but this is the easiest to follow to date. I suspect they'll get even better as people continue to dedicate to the craft.
Im 14 too but im 5'6 and i want to dunk badly. I could only touch rim at the time but now i can't because i had back surgery and now i have to stop playing sports for a few weeks. Im going to lose all my hops
Wow thank you so much I immediately noticed the difference in my vertical with using this technique everything you do to help us is much appreciated getting close to dunking on 10🎉
Isaiah is goated man. Appreciate all the help bro no bs. My standing vert is now at 27 inches at 7 feet 230 lbs and running vert is 33 after watching all your vids/proper jumping technique. I’m a big boy tho at 23 percent body fat so that’s why my vertical is trash 😂 once I get down to 205 lbs I’ll be jumping a lot higher hopefully 🙏 thanks for the motivation bro fr.
I am watching your Channel since I started playing Basketball. I am 173cm and can only touch the rim with every jump (one legged/ two legged). I took a video of my technique and can compare it to yours. Thanks for that m8.
maybe because you are lefty but if i change it to righty it is super helpful for a long time i was thinking why my approach to Penultimate step and the block step don't work properly but thanks to this detailed video tutorial i am able to do it
Awesome video, and all your content is great! I always loved to run & jump & could jump pretty high, but never had formal training for the kind of jumping for basketball/dunking. I was on track in high school & did the high jump, triple jump & long jump because my gym coach was the track coach & he had the entire class try to touch the basketball rim one day & I was able to grab it (barely) & was probably only like 5'5" at the time (a whopping 5'7" now). I guess he was impressed so he had me in all the jumping events (not the pole vault, though). I was also a sprinter and hurdler. Anyway, it was a trip at the track meets, the other high jumpers usually seemed like they didn't realize I was participating at first since I was so much shorter than everyone else. Everyone was over 6'0" tall, easily. I just realized, nobody probably cares about this story lol. But I loved to jump to see if I could touch any random thing, I mean, constantly. And all the time. Ductwork at my job, ceilings everywhere if high enough, if too easy to reach, I would see if I could hit with my head (I'd be careful of course but loved to hit the dropdown ceilings in offices or basements (usually too easy in basements) etc. I was out of control! LOL). That had to be super annoying lol - my ex-wife still talks about how high I could jump, saying my feet would be at her eye-level. Ain't no way I jumped that high, but I definitely got to a decent max height in my 20's. Anyway, I'm in my 50's now, but in my mid-20's I had to switch to exclusively jumping off two feet, which sucked because I could jump much higher off my left foot; I wish I knew this technique back then. (When I jumped off my left foot, I would get this shooting pain down the center of my kneecap, it felt like something was on the verge of tearing so I stopped and I never got it looked at because as long as I didn't push off hard I was fine & I wasn't playing basketball as much, etc.). Anyway, I'm going to make a comeback now using this technique lol! Thank you, sir. Great job, and I wish you continued success.
Really excellent instruction. All about horizontal / approach momentum energy transfer into vert. If you can master that you have built the launch pad!
Good to see you bro,could you also give some techniques for two foot jumpers on how to go up with the ball when dunking with one hand and two hands? CHEERS!
very good video, I just have to say that this technique is from volleyball. If anyone wants something more specific as exercises, they could look for videos on volleyball in vertical jump, jumping exercises are called "pylometry"
Yo, as you are probably better educated in the topic: do you have any knowledge about how much weight is affecting the vertical? of course I dont need super specific numbers but what vertical could I expect if as a 6"1 230lbs with about 22 inches of vert if I lost weight to about 190/195lbs and did not lose significant power from my legs?

That means a lot man thank you!
These vids are legit. I’m almost 45 and looking to get my vertical back. These techniques will get me dunking with ease again. Thanks
45 years old…not a 45 inch vertical. But who knows…maybe I’ll get there!

me too brotha, but I'm 47. Could only ever do 1 foot. 2 foot is like learning to walk again lol
Goodluck bro 🙏🏽
I’m jealous of that court, I just tried it on mine and slid like a whole foot.
😆😆
pouring water on the floor and sliding my shoes through it to clean them works really well for me. gets all the dirt off

Your videos have been a game changer, taking me from a 5-6" vertical jump to 21" in just one year, thank you for the incredible results!
5inch vert? Tf?
@@s32cashier69i think an injury
I use to have 16 inch now I have 23 in a half inch almost 24 inch
@RealZunnan how? Do u keep practising the two steps he showed in the vid or u also started doing calves training?
How did you have a 5 inch vert tho? I rarely play basketball and my running vert is 28 inches barefoot

Thank you Isaiah, You are my first Dunk teacher, hope you keep healthy.

You get it bro?
You’re an excellent teacher… a big reason for your success and continued following. Keep that teaching spirit and success will follow wherever you go
Have been watching you since dunk league 2, thanks for inspiring me to jump high and love from Singapore✊🏻
Oh wow, finally someone who walks you through the form step by step. Great tips!
short, straight to the point, easy to understand common isiah W
i’m a 15yr old female freshman who randomly decided to join girls varsity with minimum experience 😭. appreciate these videos they r really helpful
worse than minimum lowkey
Hey isiah .. I've been watching your videos and I went from 18 ( without Training or ever jumping ) to 25 in about two to three months ! I wish you'd make more videos on knee pain tho !
That’s amazing man! And I’ll make more on knee pain 👍🏼
That’s awesome
you could always watch a professional on knee pain? the answer usual lies in stretching to your limit, daily
Short range movements that target the knee for high reps to pump blood

Hi Jonathan:
Beach volleyball player here for 15 years. It's almost impossible to do a 3 step approach on the beach unless you're an indoor player.
Is this technique taught to professional volleyball players or something?
@@MuhammedAasil We don't do 3 steps approach on the sand Muhammed, you can't generate speed as easy as indoors
Good to see you bro,could you also give some techniques for two foot jumpers on how to go up with the ball when dunking with one hand and two hands? CHEERS!
I brought my max vert from 8 inches to 9 with this technique! Woohoo, NBA, here I come!!
Thanks so much bro really helped me
Bro calves🗣️🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
