For those of you that aren't familiar with and field, The penultimate step is the second to last step prior to takeoff . It is something called the penultimate stride and sets the jumper up for a correr takeoff trajectory
This is an amazing video man. I'm 6ft and I been really awkward when it comes to jumping since Im overall new to basketball. I know I have the strength to get the ball up there(deep muscle mass, big bones) and I know I can jump high enough but I've never been able to figure out how to get up. Thank you very much.
Thank you for posting this. I play soccer, and Im 6'1, but I've been told my jump technique is lacking. Sure I am 38, but can always improve. The skill techniques are the same, so hope it helps. Plus my 13 year old stepson is 5'9/10, so gonna show this to him.
Respect my brother!!! I’m currently looking at this video and it’s helping me get my goals achieved. Also I want to think you for explaining where people can actually get it in all videos I had watched I didn’t get it you explained it I a very much expressive way Thank you very much my black brother 💪🏽 I’m almost up there 5’10 and currently freshman in high school much luv 💯📈 Just Need A Little More Practice
Elasticity in the legs and coordination seem to play a big role too along with strength. A good example is that the smaller man jumps as high as the taller guy with less effort.
Romans 10:9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.dsd
Great video! I wouldn't exactly consider myself a basketball player but I can touch the rim when I jump without a ball. My footwork/technique is terrible though. How do you use your arms to project yourself upwards when you're actually holding the ball?
My problem is I stay too far back and I don't translate my speed well into my jump. There's no reason I should not be dunking without effort. I'm 5"8(in shoes) I can easily grab off vertical, and my drop step is 35-36 inches and the best I've gotten on a run (vert tech) is a 37 inch indoors but outside I jump alot higher.
@@HeadShoht I was able to dunk for two years before my Injury. I just didn't do it often , I think my standing vertical was about 30inches and run vertical was 35-37 inches when I was first able to dunk. After I cut this weight I should have about a 38inch standing vertical.
@@HeadShoht I tore my Achilles on right foot and broke toe on left foot but I'm finally healed from that now. Currently 187lbs or so in clothes post workout and my standing vertical is about 30-31 inches cutting to 160lbs while increasing all my lifts as I always do on my cuts.
@@MakaveliDior trampoline accident , was the day after leg day and I was on the bouncier trampolines at the park and was touching the ceiling and I was also wearing double socks and I think when I came down one of the socks slid and made it so my Achilles absorb the force at a awkward angle and that cause my big toe on the other foot to try to absorb the force so I either broke it or pulled a tendon or something of the short along with spraining both ankle at the same time. I didn't even know my Achilles was injured until I could apply any pressure on it a few days later and for a week or so I could walk at all and it took me over a month to walk again and that caused alot of I'm balances in my body due to affecting my gait when I had the crutches and than post that for several month when I had to walk with a limp. It's all good now though, it's not as reactive as it use to be and I'm still missing a good chunk of ankle mobility in the right achillies. Which I'm hoping to get back in the next 3-8 months. It's been 8 months since the accident. Currently 29 1/2-30 1/2 standing vertical and about a 35inch max vertical
i was in the same situation man, if you really want to do it and invest your time you can do anything, im now 5'7 and can grab the 10 foot rim but one day i will dunk, and i think you can do it too
@@youfellforthebait2555 If I, at five six without much jump training, can touch rim, then this young man WILL be dunking soon. That motivation thing is scary bro
@@theyhateaux no i mean like it’s highly unlikely that it’s even physically possible for him to dunk at 5ft. he should probably give up if he doesn’t grow.
i recorded myself doing jumps and it looks like im just walking over and jumping when the whole time i thought i was fully stretching getting low and extending my leg far back and getting deep. thats crazy
Hey mn. I'm around 6"2 and I'm really light, coz I'm 14, so I'm sure my body is capible of getting higher. I am able to touch rim, or at least the bars stabilizing the rim, but I can feel my jump technique is wack, since I am quite new to basketball. Imma continue plyometrics and training my technique and i will report back here.
Ahhh Court, I fucks with you my guy, I seen you in Friga’s videos with the Wildhunt collab and you wayyy more than a dunker for a big man bro. Keep it going 💪🏾🗣‼️💯🇨🇦
This is really interesting. Not sure how i got here. But i was a high school soccer player. Im quite average in stature. Im about 5 7and a half. 5 8 on a good day. I have very short legs compared to other people my height. To put it into perspective. My hip height cuts my body at about 1/2. Making my torso abit longer than average. Sitting down i go head to head with some 6ft guys. My inseam in pants is 26 inches. Adult sized pants in the smallest size tend to be 28 to 30 inches on the inseam. That being said. I can connect with what hes talking about when hes trying to describe the motion of jumping higher as all in one motion. I think this sort of thing comes easier to some people. But harder to those who are not as athletic. I couldnt jump high if you asked me to right then and there. But when youre in motion, playing hard, your body learns the movement that is going to have the least amount of resistance. With that durring a game i was always the one defending with headers. Jumping to the ball. When its done correctly you feel it. Your body just knows how to rubberband with muscle memory and technique. Its explosive force, but its not like youre trying to take off from the ground like a rocket. Its more like taking off from the ground like a jet on a runway. Good shit. I miss playing. making forwards cry and shit. I would use geometry to know where i had to block. So satisfying. Basketball is a whole different ballgame. Youre getting into calculus if youre trying to determine the arc of an object.
for those who want higher vert, go see project pro athlete, he is much better at explaining and show casing examples and techniques. For example, this guy at 1:13, through his penultimate stride, his center of mass is placed forward causing him to jump at a diagonal angle instead of straight up which reduced his vert. no hate man u a good jumper but sometimes we get careless it is normal
@@30kmask37 i see, i think people are different, when I started an up-right posture my vert increased significantly. Whatever works for u my dude goodspeed
I jump much higher going left right and exert so much energy to jump but it’s harder for me to do it right left it’s frustrating because I don’t want to be a one dimensional dunker. I’m 6’5” and I can do lots of dunks from one dimension only and I want to change that
Great Video! I like the mirror effect with the two athletes. Do you think it matters if you swing your arms more inward or outward when you are elevating?

I use to be 6’1” 185 195 dunking everything I’ve gained weight at 240 I still could touch the rim off the vertical now I’m older I want to get back to jumping and touching the rim can I do it at 252 or should I shed weight down to 220 full muscle and then do it just have a nba urge to get back into top tip shape to do a uncle drew team 50yr old ballers who imitate Michael Jordan bird and magic Johnson like roles I’m airsteven23 so ????
I’m 6’1 and pretty consistent dunking off one foot but my two foot hops aren’t as good. I have a question not really related to jumping but does anyone else wreck their shoes during the penultimate step? I tend to drag my toe as a bring it forwards for the jump and it ends up in my wrecking my shoes. Just asking to see if I’m the only one that does this…
I noticed my penultimate step on my 2 foot takeoffs is really short and not explosive. In addition, my actual jump doesn't seem fast or explosive itself, even though I am able to grab rim with 2 hands. What would you suggest for improving that speed and getting that full stride? I am already working on flexibility and lift a few times a week, but I hope you can offer a suggestion or two!
I am 6'5 and can't dunk, I can grab the rim after warming up but my vertical sucks. I also need to lose a few pounds although technique is probably a lot of it.
Same here bro, I can get my whole hand above but I can’t palm the ball and my technique is bad. I’m gonna lose some weight and keep working and should have a solid dunk package by august. Trust the process.
@@agilityplays7821 same here y’all. I used to not be able to touch rim but now I can get my hand above the rim. I seem to be struggling to transfer speed into vertical as my running jump is the same as my dropstep height
It was cool bro I was always want to be taller like you I was 5'5 and I can touch the rim I really wanna want to be like 6foot or more than like that but I was 17years half now I remember my puberty is around 15 to 16years old but I only grow like 5'3 to 5'5 I wish I can grow more my mother is exact 5 and my father is 5'4 but we all have taller in our family like 6foot and 6'5 foot but I wish I can be taller too to just dunk oneday
My friend there is one thing you and maybe even your friend are missing 😂😂😂your guy is taking the last step with his right foot, he might be left handed. I used to reach with my right but now I feel much better in reaching with my left :-) and I jump much higher

You gather the ball low when your about to jump and then swing your arm with the ball jumping up to get the ball up there.
Practice with a weight plate
