The Dunk!

[Mike_101Olie]

Im looking to achieve that all to great dunk, I know everyone says plyo and what not but I need specific workouts that will get me the results I need. Im 6,2 and im having trouble getting those last few inches over the net, I can already touch the rim and what not just looking to get over it.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated thanks,

1. Practice the take off.

2. Possibly consider Creatine, though it's not necessarily going to work too well.

3. Maybe consider a new pair of Basketball shoes.

4. As for workout, consider doing a total body workout 3 days a week, every other day. Compound exercises, mixed with some stuff four Arms and shoulders. Don't exercise longer than 1hour 10 minutes.

Start of very light, doing 2 sets per exercise with about 8-10 reps. Increase weight a bit more per week, by weeks 4-6, consider increasing intensity or number of sets.

Try this schedule if possible.

Day 1. Weights

Day 2. BB practice

Day 3. Weights

Day 4. Day off.

Day 5. BB practice

Day 6. Weights.

Day off.

This stops you training more than 3 days stright and gives you adequate recovery, without the off days back to back, eating into progress.

If you do, drink planty of water per day, DON'T drink Alcohol as it may increase side effect risks or retard Creatine performance.

Boost it's abiltiy with some like Grape juice or Gatorade. the Insulin spike caused by the Simple Sugars will assist the Amino Acid synthesis.

Remeber this might not work so don't hold much store in it, and buy the smallest amount possible, so you don't potentially waste too much money if it's not working out for you.

creatine won't do anything

squat and deadlift twice your bodyweight
