The fact that your one and two legged take off attempts are very similar is rather special. Most people are better at one or the other. My one legged vert was about 4+ inches lower than my two legged vert. 😢
Sick video! Strength training and ployos are great, but at the end of the day, the most important exercise is to attempt dunks. Try to jump on a basketball court trying to dunk or touch the rim, and the backboard in loads of different variations and I promise this will get you your first dunk in a couple weeks if not days.
@@johnathanenglish3702 applies to anyone. I knew a kid 5’5 who was super close to getting a dunk and when I told him about the cheat code that just trying to dunk is he had it within a month. He’s a freak of nature yes, but the thing that helped him take the next step was just doing the thing.
Gaining 4-5 inches in 3 months is really good. It took me 3-6 months to get from 24-30 inches (no weight training), 1 month to get from 30 to 33 (no weight training, but I was 4 years older), and 3 months to get from 33-35 (proper programming)
That’s awesome. I think I had a good amount of strength of technique prior to trying this program but wasn’t consistent enough for it to show. Proper programming definitley changes the game. It sounds like you had some ridiculous growth! That’s awesome!!
Thank you! And I agree, I didn’t get a lot of footage unfortunately during those weeks. I’m hoping to do a more in-depth video on the program itself in the future 👀
I am 12 now (finally), I am 5.7 and that's my 4th months in basketball, I started with plyometrics and work out right away. last week I was able to dunk to elementary school hoop, which i could not do 3 months ago.
Yo bro saw u had a SJU shirt on and looked up ur ig. Had no idea u went to la salle😂. Wasn’t old enough to be there before u graduated but thought that was sick. Awesome video
Haha thank you I appreciate it! I’ve been trying to make the highest quality content possible, so I’ve been taking extra time to produce videos. Plus I’m a full-time college student 😂 Next one comes out today though!! Thanks again for your support!
Honestly, I learned the footing for it from watching dunking videos when I was younger. There’s a concept called the “penultimate step” which is the last 2-3 steps of your jump, which ultimately should be the fastest. There’s a lot of really great videos about it, I’m actually working on a more in-depth version of this video where I breakdown what I’ve learned, so I will be sure to make mention of it!
I’m trying to get a better vertical I’m 13 and have been doing plyometrics for 2-3 months 0 results. Not sure what to do. I’m trying to navigate Achilles pain and hip.
That's awesome! I would say just be patient with it. If you're 13 then you still have a ton of growing to do, so I would just be patient and give it time. I touched the rim for the first time when I was 15. If you're having pain stretching is elite, and building up strength through low-pressure exercises in those muscles over time will help!
You’re a one foot jumper that’s why it’s hard asf but if you train yourself to become a two foot jumper first you’ll eventually get it more faster and keep it up nice content.
I’M 6’0-6’1!
Forgot to mention in the video lol
Standing reach?
Somehow I'm 182cm(5'11) with a 6'3.5 wingspan, but my standing reach is just 7'9, been training to dunk, bust still rim grazing, pray for me
@@wowawesomestuff8491 i dont know but i got really long arms and big hands
@@wowawesomestuff8491
Keep it up we will
@@wowawesomestuff8491 I think it’s a round 7’7-7’8”…
Bro almost crammed in flip flops after a month…
as someone also on a journey to dunk, this was very inspirational!
Thank you! I hope that your journey is going well!
Didn’t expect you to have as many subscribers as you did! Loved the vid, keep it up!
Thank you bro!!
The edits were top tier brother 😂 I’m invested in your journey though ‼️ cheers mate
Haha I appreciate it man 😂 thanks for the love!

Thank you! That means a lot! I did not know that it can be that much of a difference!
I love watching dunk journey videos
I’ll drop some more! Working on a new one 👀
love your content man, your vibe is chill and you feel like a friend. great work man! subbed.
I appreciate that thank you!
what percent of your max did u use on the speed phase?
One thing you should def work on is that hang clean form, as doing it with bad form wont help you get more explosive.
impressive bro, you keep pushing out content at this quality you will succeed
Thanks bro, I appreciate the support ❤
Amazing vid, love the content style! Keep it up and you’ll become a big content creator!
Thank you!!
I thought you were a big creator but I was surprised to see that u only had 600 subs!! You 100% deserve 100k subscribers! Here’s a sub❤
Thank you! I really appreciate it!
underrated, you have a lot of potential bro keep goin
Much appreciated!!

What exercises you did please let me know
Did you only do plyos? I’m tryna get my first dunk as well
I remember being 16 no plyos 5ft 10 could dunk then before studying exercise science and having no idea I did plyos wrong and vert decreased
You’re almost there, if you stay consistent with the gym and plyometrics you’ll be dunking in no time.
Love your vids man . Keep going!!!
Thank you!!
Good content man keep up the work!!
Thanks! Will do!
Great vid! Woulda loved to see more from the foundational phase tho
Thank you! And I agree, I didn’t get a lot of footage unfortunately during those weeks. I’m hoping to do a more in-depth video on the program itself in the future 👀
W entertaining and interesting vid. Subbed!
Glad you enjoyed! Welcome!!
I love this!!

Nooooo that is brutal! But hey you got the dunk 👀😂

Did u learn a specific foot pathing? Because I tend to slow down right before I’m gonna jump

Dropping a video pretty soon breaking it all down!
Oh shoot I dislocated my finger like 3 weeks ago and I still has not fully healed 💀 Im going to get it checked now so thanks 😁 great video I subbed! 👍
Haha yea, it definitely wouldn't be a bad idea to check. I kinda wish I did sooner 🤣 Thank you for the support!
The X-Ray🤣
😂😅
👌🏾got em
Can you dunk? 👀
yes from halfcourt
Yeah
@@mamba824kbsheesh. I need that jump program 😂
@@johnnyperkins_ its probably the lsd that got me jumping like that
Yes it's great u learned how to finally dunk, but is any defender who plays good Defense gonna let u dunk? Probably not...
The age ole saying: "That first step is a doozie!" 🤩💌🏀🔭🌟
great work!
Why thank you! ❤
Do you have the program that you used? If so can you post it
Yes! Check out my latest upload!
can you share the program you used please?
Yessir! Next video will be a breakdown 👀

Wait why is it harder to train for one foot jumpers? I find I can dunk way higher from one foot lol
Lowkey, my two foot bounce is starting to take over… I used to be a one foot but I feel like I get a few more inches when I jump two foot now 😳
What is your height now?
I am 6’0-6’1
@@johnnyperkins_ Thanks! I am 5'7 and I am 12 years old. I could dunk to elementary school hoop. 3d month in plyometrics
cant you like go a little bit lower before jumping and hit it easily?
Bro too underated, i thought he had like 70k
Mayhe someday! Thanks for the support!
Never forget me when you hit 1 million subs…
at 1:45 you could have made it if you had proper shoes on
Ikkkkkk. I wasn't really expecting to get up, I was just messing around. Maybe next time
When you tried to dunk in flip flops and barely missed-- I bet if you tried a second time in basketball shoes, it would have gone in.
I hope so! I wish I tried back then 😅
Johnny did u go to Prep?
How long were you sick for?
Im on my progress im 5'6 and i can tap the board
lets gooooo!
Good job bro 🔥💪🏾 Add plyometrics to your routine and more hip flexibility work to be even more explosive! 🗣️💎
Thank you! I definitely didn’t do enough plyos or hip flexibility so I will for sure add that to the routine!
How tall are you?
6’0-6’1 ish
how tall r u bro?
I am 6’0-6’1
Cool video
use strength shoes
whatsthe program?
That’s cool just continue and you’ll do it 🏀⛹️
Thank for the inspiration! 😄

You are an OG!
No
U jumped way too far out for that “first” dunk in November
Jesus loves u and wants a relationship with u
bros trynna dunk in flip flops
What's the point of this video? 12 weeks, no dunk.
Stop trying to dunk so hard until you learn the techniques of dunking...
How are you supposed to learn it If you dont dunk
dudes 50% black now
good shi but title is incorrect and misleading
