Basketball / Re: A WHOLE BUNCH OF DUNKS AND SHIT.

This guy went from being a elastic single leg jumper from 15/16 to mainly 2 foot plant jumper as a 18 year old. He's a top prospect in the 2018 NBA Draft

Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Re: 15 year old trying to get hops

Your pretty strong mate.  Start sprinting full speed and stop when your performance decreases. Also not lifting for a couple weeks to a month might be a good idea.

I might get a racing flat for lifting, bounds and sprints.
Then a low top basketball shoe.

I remember adidas used to make super light ball shoes
They were 9 to 10 ounces with its high top. The low tops might of been less.  The current version is chunky like 18 ounces.

I'm going to get a second pair shoes for dunking,basketball,training. My current basketball shoes are good for basketball. But pretty bad for jumping and training.

ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / Re: What should I focus on?
« on: June 15, 2016, 05:55:37 am »
I am 18. I will have access to a weight room in about two weeks. My 160 deep squat is max and that was after lifting a two months not super high intensity . I have not lifted in a month. The barefoot sprinting  is for increase my ankle stiffness and the I do it on turf. The regular sprints  cover me on the power and speed. My other stats: 31 push ups straight, 43 in a minute, 9 pullups in a row, and can't do regular dips, Have not tried to do a l-sit probably can't.

My training schedule right now is Day 1: Dunk attempts with basketball on 9'6 rim,bounds,barefoot sprinting, hurdle hops.
rest for day or 2 depending on how I am feeling. Day 2: Sprints 3x100 2x150  1x300 full rest in between. recovery exercise day after like swimming. Day 3 Abs, Pistols and Skater squats, Light plyos.  Day 4 and day 5 do Day 1 workout or Day 2 if my body feels good.  So I try to get 4-5 workouts a week.

Here some video of my improvement. Looking by the way I jump do you think I should focus to really get up. I can grab rim pretty easily with one hand on a three step RSLVJ,
I have a 8'0 reach. I'm very slow probably high 12 or low 13 hundred. Not strong at all anywhere probably more towards the weak side. Can't go on a far run up/10 step and jump as high. Can't do SL bounds well or on a run up. 
my Alternating bounds have good form since I did triple jump in high school but my length per bound isn't that much.
Right now i'm doing barefoot sprints, hurdle hops build ankle lower leg power. 4 step dunk attempts and full run up jumps. Longer sprints from 150 to 300. Alternating bounds, Straight leg bounds and LLRR bounds. Right now don't have access to weight room but can pistol squats and skater squats with a backpack in the meantime.

Introduce Yourself / Single Jumper says hello
« on: June 06, 2016, 10:53:22 pm »
Hey guys I am a single leg jumper and hope to be able to dunk before my first year of college.
Are my stats:
6'0 ft
8'0 standing reach
6'2 wingspan
170
29-30 inch make vert
Very slow
I can grab rim and dunk a deflated soccer ball t
Did long jump and triple in high school.

I starting back my training intensity back up after couple week break. I've been doing single leg tuck jumps 12 sets times 20 each leg. Deep squats with 160.  Jumping and dunking. I did track workouts before which involved sprinting and bounds. I want also become more posterior dominant and reactive.

I think have weakness in my lower legs and quads because I can't run fast and jump high I have to slow down and take quick three step acceleration to jump. I also hope to improve my speed.
 It would be cool if could take off in a fast break and slam.

here some of my videos

If you have any tips for single leg jumping that would be helpful.
