Any hope for a 66 year old basketball player 2 years out from quad bypass? My best vertical at 5-10.5 in tall player was touching the rim. Strangely, back in 1977, at the Coast Guard Academy, my standing broad jump was ~9.5 feet. After recovery, and the pandemic, in a new state, I have been playing basketball twice a week 2-2.5 hour session with no one else over half my age. I have been doing tibialis raises with weights and noticed significant dorsiflexion improvement, my vertical now is probably 10 inches. At 33 I obtained a Nautilus biceps machine and after reducing to once a week I could curl the the entire stack, amazing myself - key was allowing the full rest period and using the burnout feature rapidly alternating arms while keeping the weight stack under tension. Alas, I left the machine behind in 1998. Anyway I appreciated the aporoavhbif your training technique. I would really like to feel like I am jumping. Just getting to 18 inches would be miraculous, even 12 inches would be a significant improvement. I can still shoot a turnaround three, at least. Great jump training video - much better than others I have seen.
Yup, that’s not a bad option. Plenty of ways to hit glute medius/hip abduction. You can do sprints before you hit your strength work in any given workout, as a plyo workout with other plyometric exercises, or with your jump sessions.. all viable options!
even if you already do this.. jump technique is everything. Where can I learn (in the simplist way) proper jump technique for dunking? i'm 5'10 and can touch the rim but a lot of times its way off. or maybe not even doing it right
I’d check out Project Pure Athlete - they have some really good stuff on jump technique. Other than that, you really just need more reps of jumping. Jump technique refines and organizes itself over thousands and thousands of reps, which is why a ton of elite young athletes are dunking without any ‘jump technique advice’. Not saying this is you, just pointing out something that might be a missing link.
Power cleans? Fan or not a fan? I'm personally a big fan as I've found big improvement in my vert as I've gotten my power clean to 225 (I'm 6'6 so its extra difficult) I'm dunking everything now. Also, the technique is actually very easy to learn in my opinion.
I’m a fan for athletes who WANT to Power Clean. It can be very beneficial for vertical jump. But athletes who don’t want to Power Clean can also get some great results without it.
@@peterfazekas9552they are not, they are just hard to do teach and a lot of coaches say they are not worth it. But they are. They are some of the best exercises for overall athleticism exercises with sprinting
Yes for sure. You’ll still want to go heavier to build more maximum strength, and use between 50-80% of your one rep max to build more explosive strength/power. Try to progressive overload in weight and bar speed as well.
On the box squats, when you give the %'s , is that % of your box squat or % of your squat max? I think I need to focus on this exercise RFD seems to be the aspect I need to train the most.
@@NathanaelMorton one more question about this exercise: how much forward lean when standing is permissible? I notice when you perform the demo rep, you do move forward some. Is the answer as much as needed, or should you really be working to stay erect? I notice that if I don't lean some even standing without weight is tougher than I would expect.
Only son? God has more than one son. David the begotten son, Adam THE son of god,Israel the first born. Read John 17:3: you will see who is THE ONLY true God. Peace

Yo that contact sunk from the intro was crazy tho
Great video. Looking forward to trying some of these
Give it a go brother!
@ as soon as I get rid of this annoying cold! 💪💪
Valid exercise, currently 6,3 with a 29 inch vertical im so close to dunking… going to give these a try
Let’s go!! Very close. Keep working.
practise dunking more.
u have good height and decent vert already
just keep practising dunking
you can’t already dunk? i’m 6’3 with around a 27 and can dunk
how short are your arms bruh?
@@HairBraider 8 foot standing reach, my max vertical is more than my vertical with a ball in hand.
@@HairBraider nevermind I just verified with a tape measure my standing reach is 8.25, my vertical must be lower than I thought.
Thank you bro 💎💎
You’re welcome!
what do you think about upper body workouts? what upper body muscles am i need to train for
All of them 🙂 but just hit these movements:
- Horizontal Press
- Horizontal Pull
- Vertical Press
- Vertical Pull
- Arms
- Core
Let me know if you need further elaboration
I love this guy
I love you back
Instead of the banded walks, is a hip abduction machine an option aswell? And what is the best way to structure sprint workouts?
Yup, that’s not a bad option. Plenty of ways to hit glute medius/hip abduction.
You can do sprints before you hit your strength work in any given workout, as a plyo workout with other plyometric exercises, or with your jump sessions.. all viable options!

Is it for 2 feet jumpers only? I jump with 1 foot , give me exercises pls
Gotta get back to dunking definitely going to do these but also help my youth get gains too
No power clean/snatch?
Not back in the day, nope. Never did those. Excellent exercises though!
It was said to me that they might be bad for young/inexperienced athletes
Ha! You said "snatch" 😂😂😂 (sorry 🤣)

Very overrated..
10 mins ago is crazy. Love it!
💪🏼💪🏼
Was that first dunk the dunk u were talking about the other day on ur other channel? how did u get the footage
We had to get another team to say they wanted it and then they sent it to us. Connections with other coaches go a long way.
I am 15 years old and only have a height of 5’5, do these exercises stunt my growth ?
No - they may even help.
Does weight matter on the barbell if im doing box squats?
Yes for sure. You’ll still want to go heavier to build more maximum strength, and use between 50-80% of your one rep max to build more explosive strength/power.
Try to progressive overload in weight and bar speed as well.
Fellow old guy here. Haha. What program was it? Back in the day?
Something super generic. ‘Vertical Jump Training for the Serious Athlete’
How tall were you at 15 and now?
I’m 6’1 right now. At 15 I was 5’11-6’0. Only ever grew about an inch more than that.
W video
Appreciate you!
Was that first dunk the one you talked about that you almost didn't get the video of it? (you forgot your tripod)
You got it in the end?
Yes, got it from another team. They still wouldn’t send it. But we got it 💪🏼
On the box squats, when you give the %'s , is that % of your box squat or % of your squat max? I think I need to focus on this exercise RFD seems to be the aspect I need to train the most.
Percent of your box squat 1RM! So definitely a bit higher than normal 1RM.

OH MY GOSH. OH MY GOSH. That first dunk was NASTY 🤮
Yes disgusting 😭😭
Can i do the plyometrics at evening and the strength workout at morning or do i need to do it back to back pls need a answer
It’s better to combine, but you can separate them, just be sure to have a really good warm up for both.
Hi nathan i really want to get ellite vert like 41 42 inch vet do you thinik it posibole to achive wihout olimpic lift???
