hey welcome to the forum. what kind of wrist pain was it? speaking from experience, it's easy to get excited about a new program or new exercise and dive into it too fast and then strain something. be careful, especially since it seems like you've jumped right into a fairly big volume of (low-intensity, but still) plyos.

what's your jumping baseline? i.e., how much higher do you need to get from right now before you can dunk?

right on. if you can touch rim then you need another ~8" to be able to dunk. how far your feet are off the ground doesn't really matter, it's about how high above the rim your wrist gets. need at the very least for your whole hand to be over the rim. speaking as a (former) marginal dunker myself, at my peak of peaks i could get about an inch below my wrist and i managed to dunk off lobs a couple of times before i moved to pakistan and had to switch my focus.

VJB is a good resource, been a long time since anyone on here was working through it. will be interesting to see how you do. good luck!
