yea, i was reading alot of other ppl's journals, every single guy has a longer reach than me.
my fingers are shorter than the length of my palm for pete's sake haha.

my fingers are way shorter than my palm too... maybe its normal

but that 220 is max reach barefeet, those frees are abt an inch think i suppose...
my  7'10 reach is with shoes on. i think my reach is only 7'8.5 without shoes @6'0 barefoot so its not that much of a difference...

I'm not adarq, but I have been in PT for ankle strengthening for two months now. Here is a quick sample:

Put towel on the floor and put your foot on one end. Curl your toes to pull the towel under your foot until it's all the way under there. Repeat x5. Variation: roll towel up and put it on the ground with your toes right next to it (the towel should be sticking out away from your foot). Pick up the towel with your toes and move it a bit to the inside by rotating your foot. Keep doing that until the towel is all the way in between your legs. Repeat x5.

Stand on one foot for time (30-60s). Stand on one foot while throwing a ball against the wall for reps (10-20). Stand on one foot on a pillow or folded towel while throwing a ball against the wall for reps (10-20). Stand on one foot on a pillow or folded towel with your eyes closed for time (as long as possible). Multiple sets of whichever.

Sit with one foot propped up in the air. Spell out the alphabet in the air with your big toe, using as big a ROM as possible. Then do it backwards. Repeat.

Stand on a step and do calf raises with a 5-second pause at the top, 2x15-20. In between sets, stretch your calves and soleus muscles for 15-20 seconds.

I got tons more where those came from.

i like single leg line hops, forward/back & side to side.. a progression from that would be single leg lateral jumps to stabilize etc.

i need to get some video of that stuff.

here's some of the ankle stuff tho:
