Sleep on the floor every day for a week! After a week you’ll likely be used to it and won’t want to go back. The health attributes to doing this are immensely beneficial! Read some studies and do some general research then you’ll see how awesome this idea would be for one of your week challenges!
The visualisation stuff really does work. Something my martial arts teacher usually tells me is "Imagination very important". It basically that it's extremely important to image what you want to achieve so you know what you're trying to do instead of just doing something randomly and hoping it works out
Been feeling sick the cpl of days and I gotta say, I've been enjoying watching your content so much! Been helping a lot. Thank you for all the time you put in, some challenges must be really annoying LOL. Looking forward to watch this gem of a video too! Keep it going pigmie
You just need a proper training on jump approach and you'll grab the rim in no time (convert speed into thrust), considering you have kind of a heavy build this is a nice gain just from box jumping. Working on core strength and safe drop box landings is key too. I'm exited for a road to dunk, with your background it might be more accessible than you think!
Over a decade ago, I decided to see how far my vertical could go in a couple years of training and at 6ft, went from barely grazing the rim to one step 2 hand dunks maxing out at 36 inches of vertical but my standing reach is close to 8ft already. Seemed like squat power, overall fitness, plyometrics like what you are doing, practicing jumping with different approaches and surprisingly playing competitive pickup basketball seemed to help. Pretty sure if I had more time, could have broken the 40inch barrier to throw down dunks with style but vertical leap can definitely be trained with consistency commitment and time.
Keep it up pigmie. I love the focus! I started watching you 5 years ago I guess. Back when you did skits with yourself. I really started with your back flip videos. I did my first back flip at 30 years old. 185lbs and 6 ft tall. Since then, I have enjoyed watching your videos and getting to know your fun friendly personality. Keep it up man. You feel like a friend with how you present yourself in the videos. Awesome!
This man pigmie always coming out with bangers lol, like who apart of the fitness community sees the titles of his videos and doesnt decide to click on that? 😂
Big question for you : You did a lot of short term experiments like fasting, creatine, etc. Of all of those, which ones were so good that you just decided to make them a part of your routine and still do to this day?
Love the videos bro! They really make working out more fun for me because I try think of them as expirements like the videos to try and figure out what works best for me rather then just seeing it as any other workout and just going through the motions!
Lol... 2 ideas : 1) One week in a wheel chair (to give people insight into the complexities of someone handicapped, 2) one week in an adult diaper (well, of course this would be hilarious, and helpful to those who might need them one day)... Keep up the entertaining videos !
That’s some great progress, I don’t know how tall you are but touching rim from standing is impressive. I can’t do that and I can grab rim with a run up. I’m only 5’8 though.
you would also jump alot higher if you had correct jumping form. your second to last step before you jump is called a penultimate step and its very important. going from your penultimate step to your jumping step it should feel like your reaching out and kind of striding, and you also need to get low so you can explode up. also try not to hop into your jumping because its like jumping twice and takes away your momentum
You have really good power! If you bring a bit more speed into your approach you could probably add 3-4 more inches, road to dunk would be cool to see!
that was cool to watch. thanks for sharing. I don't think I would recommend doing 100 box jumps a day. I would limit it to 50 and doing 10 sets of 5 with 3min or more (depending on how fatigued you feel) to maximize your explosive power. Doing 100 a day for 6 straight days is tough, so props out to you for getting them in. Also you should have weighed yourself on the first day and on the test day. Also if you got a tape measure to measure the outdoor hoop. In my experience, they tend to a couple inches varying from 10 ft--- some of them were installed many years and sometimes the ground below the concrete can push it up or down the dirt can shift or maybe the hoop tilts up and down from use. When you want to maximize your vertical jump from a 2 foot jump, you want to increase your type 2 fast twitch ratio and I think since you already have a conditioned physique, you might have been able to see a slight adpatation over one 1 week. Normally, you would want to give it 2-6 weeks. it was a great idea to try and I was interested to see your results. Glad you saw some improvement. cheers
That's a great improvement in only 1 week, but if you really want to dunk you need to work on your jumping form. I recommend you watch Isaiah Rivera, he has plenty of videos showing how to jump higher and perfect form.
1st - It might have been more interesting to test the half squat-explosive movement method (partial squat, above the 90* knee bent). There was at least one study which showed up to 30% increase in vertical jump height. 2nd - Curcumin can have an anti androgenic effect (lower your testosterone) on some men so watch out, but MSM is great, I take it myself whenever it is needed. I also used to give it to my senior cat.
2:04 the traps, i recently hurt my AC joint and had a tear in my ligaments which separated the collarbone and it no longer lined up with the acromion. if i did any scapula movments at all especially flexing my upper traps or rolling my shoulders forward it was painful and i could see my collarbone lift where it meets the acrmion. took about 9 weeks of physio and rehab at home before i could even try to jump vertically because of the need to move your scapula when doing so. full body kinetix energy, when a chain is broken or not 100% the rest of the body also lacks its full potential because of it.
Biggest tip: don’t underestimate the power of the arm swing. Obviously it’s mostly in the legs, but using your arms as well gets you a little higher which makes a big difference.
Sets of 30 quick jump reps or more. 4 sets or more. No slow jumps. Did good mixing in core. Mix in squats and weighted leaps as well as deep knee bends. Jumping rope is a good cool down. The key is to work your explosiveness and quickness. Throw in hill running. Scratch that. Hill sprinting. Big quarry gravel piles work wonders. At that vertical you could easily gain a foot in 6 months.
Would like to see a road to dunking! You probably would be pretty close to dunking already if you had better technique as you can already touch rim without a running start. I’m 5’8 and can dunk tennis balls on a 10 foot regulation rim. I also prefer one foot jumps. Try a running start, be explosive, and not so stiff. Easier said than done. Hope this helps!
COOL ,MAN, IF I DID 10 OF THOSE ON ONE DAY I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO WALK AND I REALLY MEAN IT COS OF A CAR ACCIDENT AND BACK ISSUES BUT EVEN IF I WAS FIT THAT IS EXTREME U ARE BLOODY FIT DUDE , MATE ❤🎉😊
I wouldn’t recommend basketball in barefoot shoes. I’m pretty sure that’s how I damaged my foot. With vertical jump you might have success doing heavy squats or trap bar deadlift. Between 1RM to 5RM range. Also, in regards to specificity you could just do 50 rim touches a day. Being as light as possible (without losing strength) will help. Lastly, you should get a basketball player to coach your technique. I could always dunk on my weaker side only because my technique was better
Good job bro but just a tip. If u improve ur running jump technique you will be able to jump MUCH higher. Look up vertical jump technique or penultimate step. Keep grinding bro 💪
Thank you @pigmie for another awesome video. I believe the rim was doubled so that might make a difference? Anyway Road to Dunk sounds very intriguing.
Hey mate. You will see a big increase in vertical if you now focus on technique. Learn the penultimate step and your strength gains will be far more effective. Great commitment
Hey no idea if you will ever read this, but I would really like to see something similar to this but over logner period with actual rest (maybe 1 month with on off?). I really like that you made the video but I still cringe for your overworked tendons that dont have time to recover. Think there would be more progress and long term benefit from doing over longer period with rest. I would watch it, whatever thats worrth

A road to dunk would be pretty interesting to see, you should definitely look into knees over toes training to put that to the test.
Exactly what I was thinking ❤
knees over toes is trash, isaiah rivera type style is 100x better

Tried this before. Very uncomfortable and I actually woke up sore in the first days. I heard its good for posture
@pigmie
yes!!!!!!
Sleeping on floor makes u sore but makes u strong. You need nice pillows and a tatami mat.
Tried it for few weeks, went back to sleeping in bed lol

Right I was thinking if he knew the penn ultimate jump technique he’d have a much better running jump
yup his approach is eating all his momentum. Needs to tune his footwork
Loved the "I was like, dude, bro, man dude." At 6:34 😆
love ya pigmie! Keep up the banger content 🔥
Definitely do the road to dunk video. I'll be following along too. I loved this. Great video!

Definitely road to dunk series . 100%
At all test or experiments you do this is the best so far
I would love to see a “road to dunk” series or something of the sort
I am really inspired to get back into this and last night, I had a dream about box jumping just randomly!!😶 The same wavelength. I'm focused!
Road to dunking is gonna be the best vid on yt
This man pigmie always coming out with bangers lol, like who apart of the fitness community sees the titles of his videos and doesnt decide to click on that? 😂
I love the fact you are pushing yourself to grow in all areas of life! You’re an inspiration bro 🎉❤
Im here for it, Road to Dunk! Lets get it!!

The road to dunk, sound awesome. Make a whole series of you training to dunk.
thank you for doing these challenges its made working out more fun thank you

Absolutely spot on!
Man I love your content !
I might even try this myself, because I want to be able to dunk
Try doing sled pulls, fix the tibilias and then get more vertical with it
You have really good power! If you bring a bit more speed into your approach you could probably add 3-4 more inches, road to dunk would be cool to see!
Check knees-over-toes guy for increasing your jump, would love to see a challenge with those techniques

If you wanna jump higher the ez method that got me from 5in of vert to 2ft and a half is
Just practise jumping.

Dude you got the jump power now you just need the form and ur good well done
You really need to do road to dunk video.

Please do road to dunk ( u might also wanna try one foot jumps) also working on your penultimate step in ur two foot could add another inch or two
one day your channel shows up next day I'm addicted
I used visualization in skateboarding for years, I'd imagine myself doing the trick I wanted until I fell asleep and dream trained it.
Did it work?
Yes please do a road to dunk video
Road to dunking would be awesome, and all the different types of dunks as well like an eastbay or windmill.
we want a road to dunk video!!!
Keep going my dude
If Pigmie’s improves his running approach, he can definitely reach higher
Road to dunk would be sick af
You should do a road to dunk, you could probably dunk within a month with more plyo training and by working on your running vert form.
Bro I seriously think if u take one day of rest in between challenge days, your results will be much better
This is so epic! He's doing the workout and getting paid for it! Man THIS is the way!
I lowkey want to see a series on the road to dunking
Road to dunk would be really fun to see, hope you consider it!
road to dunk has to be a series
Do the road to dunk I'd love that series
0:12 DOC: "It's time for..."
for sure do road to dunk. plyometrics really do work well
Here’s a video idea, only jump, to move around for one week, and see if you get stronger calves/stronger jumping power
The picnic tables too! Yes! Try to jump over to the other side!
Biggest tip: don’t underestimate the power of the arm swing. Obviously it’s mostly in the legs, but using your arms as well gets you a little higher which makes a big difference.
Bro i love every video u do
W Content. yuo should do road to first dunk for sure
Love your videos dude! Keep it up! :)
Hey Pigmie love the video! But can you tell me where did you get these nice mint green shorts and the that ecru sweater?
Definitely to a Road to Dunk!
Sets of 30 quick jump reps or more. 4 sets or more. No slow jumps. Did good mixing in core. Mix in squats and weighted leaps as well as deep knee bends. Jumping rope is a good cool down. The key is to work your explosiveness and quickness. Throw in hill running. Scratch that. Hill sprinting. Big quarry gravel piles work wonders. At that vertical you could easily gain a foot in 6 months.
Good stuff man but lil tip don't stop to jump go faster and slow down abit then jump
i wanna see a road to dunk challenge, try improve your jump technique to jump higher
This is a great idea! Might do this one aswell!
Would like to see a road to dunking! You probably would be pretty close to dunking already if you had better technique as you can already touch rim without a running start. I’m 5’8 and can dunk tennis balls on a 10 foot regulation rim. I also prefer one foot jumps. Try a running start, be explosive, and not so stiff. Easier said than done. Hope this helps!
I want to see you make some more videos of flips or anything about you doing flips
Definitely do “road to dunk” that would be very cool to watch your progress
Can you make a video on how to make our arms longer ? For example: holding farmer carries for 15 minutes for one week.
you should try greasing the groove! old lifting myth, works for a lot of sports.
COOL ,MAN, IF I DID 10 OF THOSE ON ONE DAY I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO WALK AND I REALLY MEAN IT COS OF A CAR ACCIDENT AND BACK ISSUES BUT EVEN IF I WAS FIT THAT IS EXTREME U ARE BLOODY FIT DUDE , MATE ❤🎉😊

ROAD TO DUNKING 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
the best in the word my frends
I'm curious to see how many minutes you could push a proper shaolin horse stance for a weekly challenge
do the road to dunk!!
These are depth jumps. Super effective in increasing vert.
Please do a road to dunk. That would’ve awesome
Can you do a video showing which challenges you ended up putting into your daily routine
Road to the dunk!!
Hey mate. You will see a big increase in vertical if you now focus on technique. Learn the penultimate step and your strength gains will be far more effective. Great commitment
You can do it BUT YOU GOTTA FOCUS… on the jump. FOCUS ON THE JUMP 🔥
Coming from Olympic coach of Caeleb Dressel he says your hips should be just above the knees at the landing
Great work! If you want to get a bit higher, you need a bit more jump form
Hey no idea if you will ever read this,
