You either can or you can't brah.

If you're fat losing weight might help but that's about it.

Everyday go out and practice jumping on that basketball hoop

>be 6'7 senior in high school
>athletic but can't dunk
>inexcusable
>go out with dad to the park 3 days a week to work on my dunking
>end up being able dunk consistently by the end of the summer
>can dunk 2handed consistently a short time later

I'm sure doing shit like squats wouldn't hurt either

So, just practice jumping? Sounds simple enough I guess.

Pylos, power cleans, straight-legged deadlifts, and random core shit.

Diet changes help. Eat lots of fried chicken and watermelon.

In high school I was 6'1", 150 lbs. Started lifting, got up to 165 with noob gains. Did leg press three times a week, 3x10, and also a bunch of frog jumps during a brief plyo sesh before daily swim practice. Had no clue what I was doing, but I could suddenly dunk.

I'm 190 now and much stronger, but I can't dunk anything bigger than a tennis ball. Also I no longer swim.

So that was my experience. Lean, not especially tall, and white, but I still got up there. Hope it helps.

Do things like The Vertical Jump Development Bible and such actually work?
