    some dunk mix
    • DUNK PRACTICE
    my latest vido jumping practice
    • Jumping Practice
    not a perfect dunk, it's my very first time though
    I did tons of drills, training
    I went from hardly grab the rim and now, my first dunk comes up
    When I was 21 years old, I can't even touch the rim
    I reached my goal after I turned 25.
    The reason why it took me 4 years to dunk is that I got some injuries during my training session and I did gave up several times.
    but I didn't quit in the end
    so this is it.

      @Michael-xr8qp Před 7 lety

      jumping half and inch higher doesn't mean you can dunk it means you can touch rim. Your hand must be well over the rim to dunk a basketball. OR else you'll get rim checked the fuck out of you. And even getting that half an inch to touch the rim isn't easy that's adding 6 inches to your vertical doesn't happen in a few months m8 If you're not lying that you can even get that close, then post a video i'll check it out but internet trash doesn't prove shit

    lol props to him though

  • @archang3llo
    @archang3llo Před 9 lety +148

    I see many negative comments specially about this guy losing his time..etc but frankly I can only see positive outcomes in what he did :
    He developed his mental strength and stayed amazing strong on his path to his goal
    He strengthened his body (muscles & ligament) and looks in excellent shape
    He looks healthy and I bet he is really (one of the benefits of sport)
    He happily reached a goal set (self gratification)
    He most probably improved in some way or another his basketball skills (by any means he is at least a better athlete)
    And I'm sure he inspired many who watched this video who think they are too short in height to jump signicantly high and any other goals they are after..
    I can even add that I to my opinion I prefer seeing people getting better like this than fucking up his own life and others' in drugs, robbery, dangerous driving or aggressions

    • @OneAfricaforlife971
      @OneAfricaforlife971 Před 5 lety

      archang3llo. I couldn't have said it any better. It's a shame we human beings are so quick to criticise each other rather than try and build each other up.
      The race is not fir the swift but for him who can endure the journey! What we fail to see here is the victories won through that 4 years period. He's self confidence is sure at a high many of you that criticise may never reach or begin to understand.
      Stay positive my brothers and sisters, its time we stop letting the system of competition separate and distroy our society. Let us strive rather to be that source of strength towards each other we all search for daily.
      Love you all 💪❤️

    For the haters in the comments, how much can you squat? It is very hard to increase your vertical if you aren't genetically gifted.

    • @shivrajmulik4997
      @shivrajmulik4997 Před 7 lety +6

      Genetics matter in height not vertical.
      If you have the desire to dunk & you have Diligence,Punctuality and Never Give Up attitude in any condition,
      Then You Can Dunk.

    • @shivrajmulik4997
      @shivrajmulik4997 Před 7 lety

      I agree with you.

    • @ahastar1141
      @ahastar1141 Před 7 lety +1

      It also takes coordination and training not only your big muscles but fast twitch ones too. All the guys you see with mad hops are explosive. Yes squaring will help, but you have to work on explosiveness as well

    • @ahastar1141
      @ahastar1141 Před 7 lety

      Yeah I think a lot of people forget about that stuff. I mean I think your calves are another critical muscle to work on. The big thing I think is you gotta work on your explosiveness. Strength is useless if you cant put it to good use in a fraction of a second. Additionally you have to learn the coordination to jump. I have always been a 1 foot dunker since its pretty natural and it took me a few months and some training to get the steps down to dunk with 2 feet from a running start

    • @novaWRX
      @novaWRX Před 7 lety

      Irate People Core and upper body are just as important to get ur momentum going up. Watch any athletic jumper and its as much or more upper and core exertion

  • @romeosmith4102
    @romeosmith4102 Před 7 lety +10

    This video is plenty old. For those just starting out or those inexperienced, some of you would be surprised that you can probably jump much higher than you currently are. Jumping isn't just running and jumping. Some people are naturally athletic or light on their feet, not exactly the best combo for a beginner. Most beginners or inexperienced jumpers don't put power into their jump; they are graceful and quick but power is harder to understand.
    I was a freshman, about 5'5, could jump from the free throw and grab net but was only grabbing the rim with two fingers. It wasn't until summer when a lifter happened to oversee me jumping. Showed me I wasn't putting much power into my quad or hamstring. He had me try again, my jump was a little miscalculated. But my 2nd attempt I nearly broke my neck, I had grabbed the rim unexpectedly and the force as swinging me forward. I did it again and again. Within a week I was jumping from a foot or two inside the ft line grabbing the rim.
    Next time you're out, consider how you're jumping. If you're sitting in a chair, consider the angle your legs are in to get you up, remember that angle when you're running full steam toward the rim

    • @joebelea4250
      @joebelea4250 Před 10 lety +1

      @corbynberry4312 Před 10 lety +10

      A.C. Molina its not a legit dunk till you can slam it in and pop the rim

    • @a.c.molina5664
      @a.c.molina5664 Před 10 lety +12

      If the ball goes in the rim due to the downward force of your hand which also makes contact with the rim, it's a dunk, there's no question about that, how nice of a slam it was is a different subject entirely.

    • @thehoper3439
      @thehoper3439 Před 10 lety +2

      you don’t need to slam the ball. how hard is a slam? how much pressure is a slam? as long as its his hand that pushes the ball into the basket with a descending trend with enough pressure to see the ball go through smoothly, then its a dunk. if the tip of the hand pushes the ball over the rim that rolls in the hoop then its not a dunk. but this is.

    • @corbynberry4312
      @corbynberry4312 Před 10 lety

      I've been shot done by plenty of coaches. It is not a legit dunk until you can pull the rim down making the "popping" sound from the rim

      When you can dunk, you play much time in matches than before. When you do a layup, a pivot can easily bash you but when you dunk, it's 100% sure you've put the ball in the basket.

    He could of been dunking a lot faster if he just jumped rope. Even add a weighted vest while doing it and doing it on his toes. Its not about how much muscle are in your legs or how strong you are. Its about developing your muscles to twitch. Think of your leg muscles as rubber bands. You pull a rubber band and let it go, its snaps back fast. Thats how you want your leg muscles to react. When you set your toes to jump, all the muscles in your leg expand like a rubber band. Its how fast you can get those muscles to snap back that gives you explosiveness when jumping.

      @Shakester71 Před 8 lety +1

      +ZombieFetish Absolutely. In high school, I was 5'10 in my junior year and barely touched the rim. Our coach had us do a drill where we'd jump and touched the backboard on our toes as fast as we can which is pretty much like jumping rope. He had us do this drill before every practice along with suicides and other drills. By the end of my junior season, I was dunking the ball. I continued to jump rope whenever I could. My senior year, I grew to 6'0 and was dunking easily.

      +Shakester71 I think there is some true in that. Some years back I used to jump rope for at least one hour per week (part of my boxing training) At that time I could easily grab the rim and I was very light, 60kg for 173cm.

    @mathieust-gelais4346 Před 9 lety +35

    problem with people posting vids of dunking and how they struggled to be able to do somewhat of a tip-in is, i figured out, that they all do those two really big mistakes
    1- dunking of two feet is exremely harder if you are short ( believe me, i'm 5'11 ) than dunking full speed of one foot
    2- dunking of a lob ( especially a self-oop ) is the worst way to practice dunking. doing lay-ups with a rim touch, or a soft dunk at first, is the best way to be able to dunk as a 6 fooot and below guy

    • @VAN1SH1NGac7
      @VAN1SH1NGac7 Před 9 lety +3

      2 feet and 1 foot technique is really what you're more comfortable with... I jump so much higher of 1 but that's just me

    • @mathieust-gelais4346
      @mathieust-gelais4346 Před 9 lety

      VAN1SH1NG AC7 i jump higher off 1 foot too. i honestly believe its because of the constant motion going on. when you run and jump off 1, you keep a speed to leads you up. off two foot, you need to stop your running and then jump, its less efficient imo

    • @joebill5136
      @joebill5136 Před 9 lety

      You have just never been a 2 footed jumper. 2 footed jumping can become just as efficient, with a lot of practice. Most 2 footed jumpers don't stop then jump, they accelerate through as well, it is just developing the correct pattern, and comfort with it.
      2 footed jumping tends to take less speed to jump just as high as 1 footed. Either way will be wack if you aren't comfortable with it though.

    • @youtoob0217
      @youtoob0217 Před 9 lety

      Mathieu St-Gelais just wanted to follow up on all these comments. jumping 1 leg is easier and the reason is simple: because you can use your other leg to gain momentum. you plant on the jumping leg, toss the other leg up in the air, and the inertia propels your whole body upward in one fluid motion. the case for jumping off 2 legs is more power, which is true, and because of these they, for the most part, cancel out on which is more effective. but jumping 1 leg will always be much easier.

    When I jump to the basket, I clearly touch the net, but I have never touched the basket of a 3 meter-tall basketball hoop.

I think were a lot of people go wrong is they believe that jumping only involves making your calves stronger but I think core and upper body strength are equally if not more important. I am taken back by all the negative comments and also the 2.6k dislikes. I think it speaks for humanity and the way they hate other people, especially those who are doing better than they are.

      Basketball has become so streetball like now. It's quickly losing the fundamentals of how the sport began. Dunking, ankle breakers, etc. The real skill is in the accuracy and precision of shooting the ball. If all shots had to be at least 5 ft from the rim, the basketball playing field would be greatly reduced.

Where are the CZcams videos of you doing something you worked for? You most likely don’t have any, but you have the nerve to say that what he has done is mediocre. Then on top of that you assume that he did nothing more. You don’t know what else he was able to accomplish in that amount of time. There is a possibility that he doesn’t really give a shit about playing basketball and all he wanted was to get up and dunk. Why don’t you quit being a hater.

    I'm 5'9" and I used to dunk when I was in high school up to college. Enough vertical though, my wrist above the rim and I can palm the ball. When I started working and got busy, I gained weight. From 154lbs now to 190lbs, I can't even barely touch the rim right now 😂 I can tap the board after laying the ball in but the struggle is there, haha! I've read some of the comments and I agree that some are born to jump high and some are not and need to earn it by training. I can say I was born to jump, but lost it by gaining weight and not doing enough exercise. After watching this video, I feel motivated to gain back my vertical. You did great man, even if it took you so long to make your first dunk. Good job!

    Sorry, but this is not really a dunk. The ball would be going anyway in the basket, even if u dont touch it.

    just lower the rim, who cares?
    "Normal" rim height is designed for people over 190cm...

      MaximumEfficiency lowering the rim is stupid and unimpressive

      MaximumEfficiency just lower the rim.. who cares... It is that exact mentality that creates a world of lazy people without any desire to better themselves . And on top of that you make excuses to justify not setting higher goals. You missed the point entirely.
