Yeah it's really really weird... my arm look a TON over the rim yet my head doesn't look that close to the rim.

No way it's at the rim. It's perspective. The rim is definitely above the elbow.

If there's one palm from the end of my palm to the rim then that's 20 cm above the rim... + 20 my palm that's 40 cm above the rim which would be a 3.35... that would end up being a 94 cm jump.

But my head IS NOT at 1.82 + 94 = 2.76... no way. That would be only 19 cm away from the rim and it's not.

Um... not sure if you noticed but... that backboard isn't exactly an "official backboard" :P

The square looks taller than just 16 inches. You shouldn't worry about the square though.

Yeah well like I've done the calculations above... looking at where the hand is/how much the arm gets over the rim - gets my vert to about ~38 inches.

But that would mean my head would be 19 cm away from the rim which is 8 inches, and it doesn't look to be 8 inches away from the rim, more like 12.

So... something is fishy.

Yeah cutting by over 500 kcal under your BMR is counter-productive.

I'm 5'11-6'0 (1.82m)

I don't get this cutting thing. I'd rather have a stable eating habit that sets my bodyweight at a certain level and then just work in and out with nutrition depending on what I'm doing rather than having traditional bulking and cutting phases.

On the other hand, if the jump is 94 cm then I'm with my head at 2.76m, which means I'm 19 cm away from the rim. It doesn't look like I'm 19 cm away from the rim in that picture. Looks like 30 cm or so.

33-35?

Based on what?

Rim is 2.95 tall. My reach is 2.41. Here I see to be about 2 palms or 40 cm over the rim in my estimation.

That gets 2.95 + 40 = 3.35 high touch.

3.35 - 2.41 = 94 cm which would be 38 inches.
