also am interested now in sprinting as a side hobby. not so sure about the distances though, but i know the longest i'll go is 400 meters cause im curious how fast i could run it.

212
deadlifts 255x6, 275x4, 275x4.

213
lol my bad, unlisted again. i'll try to punch down a good 2 hander soon and have it on cam. i actually put down a good amount of dunks yesterday, put in a few 2 handers but couldn't punch it through.

i see. and yes, its my new favourite too. i just absolutely fly. from the angle i normally use, the top of the 3 point line, but a bit to the right i don't think i'm even close to putting down a 2 hander.

214
ok, i don't know why, but i fly off the baseline angle. i definitely think i prefer this angle over the straight on angle now.

215
well i finally did it. first ever 10 ft dunk at my homecourt lol. really had huge adrenaline going on today. i slammed my wrist against the rim on one dunk attempt, so i think i'm sure i'm touching atleast 10'8. maybe 10'9 max. i want to believe i'm touching 10'10, which is a 38 vertical, but i think i'd be dunking way easier if that were the case lol.

all attempts from today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWXua4sPGgo

i'll try to use the other angle next time, this angle is more generous lol. and i definitely think im short armed, i get my head to the mesh pretty well, just can't put it down.

 :ibjumping: sick!!

last one was really nice.. though, most of those should have gone down... if you had landed that first one ->  :wowthatwasnutswtf: would have been a hard make.

as for 10'10 .. hard to tell because of that angle.. but, you're definitely there-or-close. some of those jumps were really nice, you can see some good float.

great stuff man

recorded a not very clean dunk at the gym. stutter step in the approach too. finally played pickup for the first time in a while, and this was done after like 3 hours of pick up. in between though, i was actually throwing it down, dunking it cleanly. i always jump higher during pick up sessions, and really got up today. might start consistently playing pickup again, hope i don't get injured though.

sup with this one? it's private.

 :raging:

thanks dude. and yea, i think now if i landed that first one it wouldve been too good lol. i actually am wondering whether that rim is set at 10. i've had it since 2005, but never dunked on it till 2014, so the rim is in good condition. that being said though, i've had cleaner dunks at the gym where i'm sure its 10. also almost landed a two hander : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etuy7C7X6JQ

Thanks. Just takes a lot of practice and repetitions, just like working on your free throws lol.

sunday: 255 lb deadlifts: 6,5,5. apparently the weight of the bars at my gym vary. was a heavy 255 lbs today. the 275 lb deadlifts on sunday were a very light 275.

also am still very good off 1 or 2 steps. i actually don't jump that much higher off a full approach. have some footage of close range dribble dunks on 9'6 if anyone wants to see. not that interesting though, better for me to record some dunks on 10 ft when i can. i actually went to the gym today, but couldn't get it done. combination of me not jumping high enough and my ball losing its air.

wednesday: 275 lb deadlifts: 5,4,3

222
got in more 10 ft dunks on friday at the gym. tried some 10 ft dunks at home today though, but couldn't get it done. not jumping high enough here, probably not enough space. i start my approach at the 3 point line at the gym now, so i definitely think i'm more comfortable with a longer approach now.

Yess!! I did it! Kids took up my court with the 9'8 rim, went on a court with a 10 and just shot around, went to hang on the rim a few times, then decided why the hell not, and threw up some lobs. Did a few clean dunks. The rest were either misses or were "threading the needle". Really happy though, I'm glad I spent some time lobbing on lower rims cause my lobs are pretty spot on now. It's kinda like shooting really.

Wednesday: deadlifts with 255 lbs. 8,6,6.

224
Saturday: deadlifts 3x6 245 lbs

went to the gym and tried on my kobe 9 elite high's and went for some rim grabs and the shoes didn't bother me in anyway. these shoes are high tops that go as high as boxing shoes, and i had them laced all the way up, so its a good sign that i don't need lots of dorsiflexion to be able to jump high.
