You Can Learn How To Dunk in 4 Weeks With This Program…
Written by Brayden Fisher on November 15, 2009 – 9:32 pm -Are you a few inches from dunking but just can’t seem to throw it down? If so, then you are in the right spot because I can help you out. The workout that I have below can dramatically improve your vertical leap. In fact, if you really train HARD with this program I am confident that you can learn how to dunk in 4 weeks or less. You should gain a minimum of 5-6 inches on your vertical.
To gain those extra inches and improve your vertical jump you need to increase your EXPLOSIVE POWER. A strength program using VERY HEAVY weights is the best option. You should not be able to do more than 8 repetitions at a time. If you can do more than 8 reps then it is time to up the weight.
The main muscles involved when performing a jumping motion are the hamstrings, quads and calves. So these are the muscles that we are going strengthen in order to get you dunking in 4 weeks or less. The exercises below are the best exercises you can do to improve your vertical leap. It is important to not only do strength exercises but also use a combination of speed exercises as well.
The Strength workout: (Do 3 Sets of 8 reps with VERY HEAVY weight.) Do not do a bunch of reps. You will feel a burn but doing a bunch of reps defeats our purpose. That will increase your vertical endurance and not your explosion. Do this 3 times a week.
Squats
Lunges
Good Mornings
Hamstring Raises
Dead Lifts
You probably recognize most, if not all, of these exercises since they are very common. I am not going to explain how to perform them. If there is an exercise that you are not familiar with then do a search for it on Google and you will easily be able to find more information about it.
The Plyometric Workout: You should do this workout routine twice a week. Do not do this the same days as your strength workout.
Run 3 sets of either 50 or 100 yard sprints
Jump Rope – Do 1 minute drills
Knee Highs
Depth Jumps
Focus On Your Jumping Technique First
Improving your jumping technique just might give you the extra height you need to learn how to dunk. It’s an area that most people neglect and they are not jumping to their full potential.
I have created a page to help others learn how to improve their jumping form. Check it out by clicking on the “How To Dunk” link I have below. If you implement the strategies I have for improving your jumping technique, you can IMMEDIATELY improve your vertical by 2 to 4 inches. Not bad considering you haven’t even begun the strength program yet. So don’t forget to visit that page.
If you do this workout routine and practice your jumping technique CONSISTENTLY you will definitely improve your vertical and learn how to dunk. I hope you enjoyed the info, now get to work
