Has he shown you his butt?

Yeah all those issues that ball players have technically are due to either:

1) Lack of strength in the proper places to "look" and "act" good on their run-up/plants
or
2) Lack of practice
Sometimes there's a 3rd:
3) Bad structure for that particular jumping method. But truth be told, you're going to have a bad structure if SOMEONE tells you to jump differently (say a two footed jumper meets someone who tells him to jump off one leg and he sucks - that could be a structure problem but MOST LIKELY it's a lack of practice and lack of strength in the proper places).

When I started to jump 12 years ago after doing no kind of sports up until that point (up until being 15 years old) - obviously I was completely uncoordinated and had a 12 inch jump. But over time I'd say my jump technique got pretty good just by jumping day in and day out to the rim. I had no understanding whatsoever of training/techique or anything like that, just jump.

Yes but the other rim opposed to this 120 inch rim is 119".

What about if you measure yourself at the same exact time each day you do it (say immediately after you wake up)?

A low bodyfat is an indicator for some other stuff that helps, endocrine efficiency, better CNS and so on and so forth. So when you see a guy with a low bodyfat being athletic, there are more reasons behind that than just the low bodyfat alone.
