Learn How To Dunk In 4 Weeks!

If you are really close to dunking but just not quite able to throw it down, the first thing you should focus on is the proper jumping form. Most people have never given any attention to their jumping technique and they are losing valuable inches on their vertical leap.

I have created a separate squidoo lens dedicated specifically to improving your jumping form. You can view the lens here: How To Dunk In 2 Weeks. If you practice the techniques I have listed on that lens you can increase your vertical jump anywhere from 3 to 6 inches. That is pretty impressive considering you haven't even implemented any workout routines yet. So head over there and check it out. Here is the link again...

How To Dunk In 2 Weeks

If you want to improve your vertical jump then you need to increase your EXPLOSIVE POWER. In order to do this we need to train with VERY HEAVY weights and we should be able to do no more than 8 reps at a time.

The main muscles involved when perfoming a jumping motion are the hamstrings, quads and calves. So these are the muscles that we are going strengthen in order to get you dunking in 4 weeks or less. The exercises below are the best exercises you can do to improve your vertical leap. It is important to not only do strength exercises but also use a combination of speed exercises as well.

The Strength workout: (Do 3 Sets of 8 reps with VERY HEAVY weight.) Do not do a bunch of reps. You will feel a burn but doing a bunch of reps defeats our purpose. That will increase your vertical endurance and not your explosion. Do this 3 times a week.

Squats
Lunges
Good Mornings
Hamstring Raises
Dead Lifts

I am not going to explain exactly how to do each exercise. If you do not know how to perform a certain exercise just type it in Google and all kinds of info will come up.

The Plyo Workout Do this twice a week on your off days.

Run 50 and 100 yard sprints - 3 sets
Jump Rope
Knee Highs
Depth Jumps

If you do this workout routine CONSISTENTLY you will definitely improve your vertical and learn how to dunk. I hope you enjoyed the info, now get to work :)

I obviously can't tell you everything you need to know about how to improve your vertical leap on a small one page site on Squidoo. So, I recommend heading over to www.40inchvertical.net and check out The Jump Manual. If you stick to the workout program and hit it HARD, I GUARANTEE you that you learn how to dunk in 4 weeks or less.

The Jump Manual is the best vertical jump training program I have ever come across. It is the only product that effectively targets every aspect of vertical explosion. Jacob Hillar has trained college, NBA and Olympic athletes and has consistently gotten them to 40+ inch verticals. So check it out at www.40inchvertical.net

You won't be disappointed.
