here's an example somewhat:

3-step (and another 1-step):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fREo6kHpzbM

the idea is to fix your plant in the 1-step then 2-step, then 3-step, then full etc...

that's what we're getting at basically.. i define things a little different than steven-miller, so, 1-step is 1 step then the plant and so on for 2-3/etc.

pC


I've been studying this video

So I think the sequence of motion is...

1) Take a big step while at the same time swing the arms back
2) Take a smaller step and bring the arms down to your sides
3) Jump and raise the arms

Dude, why don't you just do the progression I outlined? Swing arms back with the plant step and every other timing regarding arm swing will take care of itself. When you try to control every bodypart consciously during such a movement you are going to mess up. Just learn the RHYTHM of those two steps, learn to take the arms with you and then try to do it fluenty and eventually jump maximally. By then you won't need to think of those timings, they will just happen because your body will do these things naturally.

That's the BIG step before the very last one.

I think it looks a bit better but you still don't compress well and keep a pretty high center of gravity. But then again, at your strength levels...

That is looking very good, especially the first jump. Now get stronger and you should be able to dunk soon enough.
