higher jump

[Rikwa]

Ive been dieting and lifting for a few months now but i recently started playing basket ball again. My problem now is i get no height in my jumps, i was very active in leagues and the school team years ago (was able to grab the rim but only dunk a volley ball) but that was years ago any suggestions on routines i can do to raise my jump shot and/or eventually dunk ( im under the impression that they require different muscle groups to preform) any help would be appriciated

Here is a great article: http://www.strengthcats.com/JDfabulous15.htm

I do some of the exercises they mention and have gotten my vertical up to 36" as of two weeks ago. I am on the quest for 40 inches!

thanks this looks like it will be very useful i just have to find a way to define some of the terms used im still pretty illiterate to naming all the muscle groups and excersize terms
