Wow so you have a higher vertical leap than Nate Robinson, Michael Jordan and higher than the NBA combine record for both as well as the NFl records? And your friend who high jumped 7'9.25 has one of...

I'm around 6 feet and only 140lbs, 155 ain't that light really. I know guys who who are 17/18 years old who are only 120-130lbs.

It is nowhere near as hard as you think. Anyone over 5'6 has the potential to dunk if they work hard. Nate Robinson first dunked at 5'1 by the way.
If you are close to touching the rim then that's a...

Yes you should lose some more weight if you want to make it easier. Just going down to 170-190lbs would mean you could probably dunk. Having too much fat that isn't helping is like jumping with a...

So you can dunk 10ft but not with ease yet? If your standing reach is around 8'3 if you're 6'4 then with a 26 inch jump from the standstill and like 30 from the run it sounds like the problem now is...

Your weight is good, fine for dunking. 5 times deadlift your bodyweight isn't much though. The technique is actually equally important, of the 11 inches extra height I gained on my max dunking...

Currently it's like 29-29.5 inches.

My reach is 7'8.5'' at 6'0'' in shoes. The 8'' or wrist above the rim is a good guideline for many but I can tell you straight up it varies a lot depending on technique, of that I have seen. A friend...

I turned 18 a few days ago :)

I'm working on it right now. I started playing basketball 3 months ago and had a dunk record on 8'9 lol. Now I can dunk 9'6.5 and hope to be at 10ft soon, that's with a size 7 ball btw. I'm 6'0 in...

Good luck bud. Your vertical isn't bad, if you have dunked before and are 6'2/6'3 then that's good hops in my book. There's a 6'8 guy at my school who isn't even CLOSE to dunking, I have seen him...

Grabbing the rim is a great start bud. I could dunk on 8'9 max 3 months ago just before I started playing basketball for a team at school. After playing and training on my vertical at the gym I can...

Yeh the correlation isn't always accurate. I know a guy who is super fit from rugby and works out loads, probably could squat 1.5x his weight but he can barely touch the backboard. (He is about 5'6...

Yeh for real, your standing reach is probably over 8'6 as well, meaning you don't even need a high vertical to dunk.

Your welcome. Are you dunking 9.5 foot with high consistency?

I know little about NFL but I would guess you would need a time that relates to your position. A player in a fast guy position whatever that is would need to be running 100m in under 11 seconds...

You have scales at your gym right lol. Just bring some scales down and stand on the scale holding the bar and subtract your weight, I have done that before.

The 5.5 foot barbells are at my gym and weigh 7kgs, so 15lbs, pretty light, probs the ones you mean here. Was it a pre-made one with unadjustable weights?

pylos are amongst the best, don't leave them out but besides that learning the primal movement itself is of greatest effect. Get an adjustable rim if you can and go out dunking for 30-60 mins 2/3...

It would vary. I assume the 24 inches is a standstill vertical jump off the spot right? If you are a lightweight and speedy guy then you can gain significantly more leap off the run than a standstill...
