oh ya i know he wasn't close to 13'. fast does lie was saying you needed 15 inches above the rim, so i wanted to prove him wrong by saying that J clark wasn't close to 13' on that jump and made the dunk on 11'8.

92
had a short, solid 1 foot dunk session in the first time in a while. felt great, no knee pain. i think i'm barely even getting my whole hand over the rim, yet i'm slipping dunks in on 9'6 off the dribble. seems like a skill i'm really good at though. i just take 1 dribble then take off hard off 1 foot and i can get dunks in

93
put down some 1 foot dunks off the dribble on 9'6 today. can't wait to start deadlifting again too to keep strengthening the P chain which is too vital in the 1 foot jump.

yea.. i know j clark is jumping high, but i don't think he's near 13'/top of the backboard on his 11'8 dunks.

95
hmm, well i can dunk one handed and two handed on 9'6, but my hands are more on the small side. i wish i was touching 15 inches above it though, which is 10'9 lol. i'm probably closer around 10'6 though but still getting the job done.

96
think i'm 6' with a 7'8 reach. i don't think hand size matters too much even for one handers, you definitely don't need to be able to palm the ball. and even then, you always can just go for two hand dunks. try playing around with low rims and dunking on as high of a rim as you can, and you'll get a feel though. if you ever manage to get 15 inches over the rim though, i'm pretty sure you'll be able to do more than just throw it down lol. probably windmills, 360s, etc

97
is anyone else training to want to be able to eventually dunk in games? obviously vert training in general goes hand in hand(maybe except training JUST for standing vert), but i'm specifically gonna work on being good at going off LR and off my left foot. seems like going off 1 foot is definitely necessary for easy dunks in full court. am still a far way from making a 1 hander off the dribble off 1 foot though.

yep i'll need a 44 in vert to dunk in a game....

oh, thats quite a bit lol. off 2 feet off the dribble, i'm not quite sure how much i'll need, but i think high 30's will be enough to just do put backs. off the dribble off 1 foot though, i think jumping high 30's will be enough to comfortably dunk 1 handed.

i see. yea both are good for me i guess. high tops just solve heel slip so i feel safer with them i guess. but yea, always good to find low top without heel slip.

100
oh yea, seems like most of you prefer low tops for jumping in, probably cause of the extra range of motion. i'm completely fine with high tops though, and think they might be preferred cause i get heel slip with some low top shoes.

101
do you guys get a better fit on shoes with low tops or high tops?

102
gonna continue strengthening posterior chain i guess. gonna still be mainly a LR planter, but still wanna be able to get off of 1 foot.

103
overthinking my jump really kills inches more than anything

104
LR jump still very hip dominant. i can jump off LR with high top shoes without a problem.

105
still can touch 10'2 off 1 step, LR plant. gonna continue with both trap bar and straight bar deadlifts in the future. am not looking to bulk anymore at all though, eating is just too much of a chore. just maintaining my weight is already somewhat of a chore already, so may potentially lose weight.
