bro is a lost antetikunpo
So true 🤣🤣
that spelling of antetokounmpo is wild
Bro Is thanasis 💀
😂😂😂😂😂
I am 40, I am white, I am 6'7. At 250 I need to be super athletic to jump. At 225 I get up and throw down lame white boy dunks, now going down to 200 for the summer as I feel the best at that weight. I have so much respect for Zion the way he gets that body up in the air. I can't even comprehend how he does it.
Bro Zion pulled up a free throw line dunk off one foot 😂
@@djephrazor5498 of course he did it off one foot, how do you think jumping for distance works brother
ight unc
It's mad to even be dunking at 40 tbh. Keep it up
200 lbs for your height is shockingly light
Zion lowkey needs some more credit.. he has lost a significant amount of weight this season
I’m 6’6 195 with around a 39-41 inch vert and it all boils down to 3 things, The amount of times you simply spend jumping, how strong you are (for your body weight), your raw genetics
4th thing the amount of time you are willing to sacrifice to dedicating yourself to learning your body and the overall process, including the knowledge you are willing to gain for specialized training or getting a trainer w/said knowledge already and willing to learn more, (perfect example is Isaiah Rivera and his trainer)
Damnnn bro do u play college??
@@xum0007 yea man lol, I play at a juco right now
Damn bro I’m 6’8 230 and can barely dunk I probably gotta just jump more often. I never really played sports growing up
@@Frxnando That‘s not an excuse for being this unbelievably unathletic bro…. please do some plyometrics, because I‘m 6 foot tall, 16 years old, 155 lbs and i can throw down dunks off two aswell as off one and throw down lobs and everything (I even posterized a couple of guys). And it‘s not THAT much of a genetic thing because I‘m turkish, persian and I might have a little black in me, but you get the memo. Especially at your height you only need like a 20 inch vert(maybe even less) to just dunk a basketball comfortably, while I‘m here with a 35, maybe 36 inch vert. So yeah bro just get after it, train like 2 times a week for 3 weeks and you‘ll be able to dunk. Trust me, it works. I believe in you!
6’2 first dunk was at 215 rim grazer lifted and cut for summer to 200 and am doing 2 handed dunks now
Great video/analysis
Bro u so underrated keep it up man.Also its crazy dunking like this at 5 foot 9 🔥🔥
fire vid bro u explained everything rlly well
Thank you, I appreciate it
Babe wake up a JiggyHills video dropped! I would have to agree at 5' 10" the mid 180s have been feeling good, I can actually move around 😂 At 200 I felt so slow like I was hooping in mud 💀
I think for 5”10 it should be 170-175

Everybody is different
damn bru im 6'1 175
@@guardseanfr I giga bulked don’t recommend
video was really helpful🙏
Great video
Thank you man
"Your'e just like Zion"😂😂
i’m 6’2 and i first dunked at 15 and i was 184lbs (i was around 6’1 at the time tbh). in march, i was around my most athletic ever (17 yo) at 205lbs. got an ankle injury and haven’t played in 10 weeks, so i got up to 215 but back down to 205lbs, wanna get to 190-195lbs to get more agile
Do you think Massai jumps would ge good for training vertical? Have you tried them?
Good video
love the content bro but can you do vids on how to cut weight if your fat and also can you do videos of exercises for vertical. thanks bro
On the point about relative strength; I believe you are conflating relative strength with relative muscle mass, when you say in order to increase relative strength, you either need to bulk or cut. Relative strength is influenced by a number of factors outside of sheer muscle mass, and you can increase relative strength as an experienced athlete without any change in bodyweight, or even any change in body composition.
I agree with your underlying points. You don't absolutely need to bulk per say, but it does make things significantly easier for getting stronger. If you're fat, you absolutely need to cut though (in the context of VJ). Might I add, my bulk range was from 200-500 calories a day which is relatively small (would be considered a lean bulk). The truth is the average person doesn't have the ideal body composition. I also wouldn't assume the average viewer is an experienced athlete.
I agree with your general points though. Appreciate your take.
"Relative strength is influenced by a number of factors outside of sheer muscle mass" To expand, those factors are: muscle fiber composition (fast twitch vs slow twitch fibers), CNS (central nervous system) synaptic fire rate and nerve coordination. Everyone starts out with varying amounts of development of these factors, but the way you train can further enhance them to develop explosive strength. To do so you need to prioritize maximum muscle recruitment during training, BUT high recovery phases and rest periods AND frequency of training. That means your training sessions should be intense and frequent but short. That's because the muscle fibers and synaptic fire rates required for explosive strength are recruited at a relatively high recovered state. If your sessions are too long, the body pivots to using more slow twitch fibers and slower synaptic fire rates due to fatigue. First start with body weight movements that are very explosive (box jumps, jump squats etc), when you do lift, high but manageable loads with low reps (think 5 x 3 or 4x4) and lots of rest in between sets. Your training sessions should be less than 45 min and you should feel like you could do it again the next day. Optimal frequency would be every other day for novices and daily but shorter sessions for intermediate to advanced athletes. Genetics is also a factor, but since you can't control that I don't touch on it.
I been thinking about this lately because I’m 235 but I jump higher off one foot. I have good technique and experience with both, just something I’ve been thinking about.
Dang, nobody noticed that switch-up he did at 0:52? 😂🐐
Wdym? Were those not the same person?
@@leleg8167 The switch really happens at 0:55, so keep an eye out for those 3 secs...
@@mannyobi6171 I was joking…
I’m 5’11 210 and can get up there with ease
Thanks for video bro, im 22 years old and 6ft 165 and I can touch the rim but can’t grab it, im already trying to do plyometrics and weight lifting (like squats and weighted jump squats mainly) to try and improve my vertical. Any advice on how to get my first dunk? I’m def trying to bulk in general to gain muscle and not just for vert
Same but 21 turning 22 6ft 175 any tips
The exception to the rule would clearly be zion he is not supposed to do what he's doing at that size. Also Zion doesn't want to play for the pelicans thats why he's doing what he does
You think he’s tryna get traded?
@@kayfrancis377 that's a hard one. They need him also they know he doesn't want to stay. I say he leaves
Just saw this and was very informative. I'm 6”1 in shoes hovering around 220-224 pre injury dunking off 2 what would you think about me wanting to get to 180 rather than 190 for the speed and to have a higher vertical
I think you shouldn’t chase the number on the scale too much. If you cut to 190 and are super lean, getting to 180 will only cause you to lose muscle. However, if you still have a decent amount of fat to lose at 190 you should definitely go for it.
I recommend cutting to sub 200 and monitoring your strength and leanness as you continue to cut. You wanna be somewhere are 10-13% body fat… possibly a little lower
How do I become better of 1 foot? Like off vert I can touch rim. But of 1 foot I can’t jump for shit. 😂 I mean idk i used to be a mile runner with like a 35-38”inch max vert. I’m trying to get up to the 40”s to dunk but I’m not sure if my 1 foot being so bad is limiting factor or I’m just currently not strong enough of 2.
Bro I have the same problem. I have a 24" vert off two feet but it's like negative 5 inches off one
@@silasgaertner6296 i mean that’s just from your vert being low with more practice and reps it may correct itself. Like I used to be able to rimgraze. Off two feet and not be able to touch rim of 1 😂
I’m 6 foot and 230 lbs I’m pretty lean tho and can barley touch rim off of one foot but I don’t know how to dunk off of 2 feet
What about if im 5'10 with shoes and 123lbs. I guess I am relatively ok with strength. I can grab rim with 7'8 reach
5'9 190 good skill position football size
So u like the size to post up?
what can i do at home with no equipment to jump higher
Hey man, im 16 5'8 and 130ish pounds and can touch rim, I want to get my first dunk this summer, im a 1 foot jumper, but I should still be looking to put on weight right?
Because you’re so young and so light, you definitely wanna try to build some muscle. You’ll definitely get a lot stronger in the process . Try practice dunking on low rims and slowly raise it as you get better and more comfortable in the process.
@@JiggyHills thanks man, gonna get in the gym when my exams are up and hopefully put some weight on!
3:17 De’Aaron fox is such an underrated dunker, bro got a 40 inch vert💀
I’m 6ft 235-240 and my vert is mid 30s
I am 5'11 and 12 yrs old, I can't dunk and I am getting close to grabbing rim at 137 lbs, anyone got some advice for me to be dunking by the end of eighth grade? (I'm at the end of 7th rn)
What if your a power one foot
LeGenetics 😭😭 I knew bro was goin talk ab him n bring him up Cz bro is a genetic freak lmao
im 6'1 maybe 6'2 and im 225 and i just working on going down to like 180
before i gained a bunch of weight i was super skinny so im just cutting and also my lower body is way bigger compared to my upper body.
180 6'2 in shoes one foot jumper, think i should cut or put on a couple more pounds? I can dunk off all four plants, but one foot is my best.
Based off what i'm reading, I wouldn't say cut or even intentionally bulk. I would focus on getting as strong as possible and that may result in you putting on a few pounds of muscle.
Just focus on getting a lot stronger at your body weight, but a few pounds might be put on during the process. Don't forget to keep those max effort jump reps up. Best of luck my guy.
@@JiggyHills bet brodie! preciate you
Yo what are some of your PRs in the weight room? Specifically barbell squat.
I'm a similar size to you and that's why i ask
@@marionmatthias5608 Ha you're nowhere close to his size lol
yo bro I’m like 5’7 170 ish pounds thing is I’m mostly muscle and low body fat % the thing is I’m pretty shifty and fast but my vertical ain’t that high I’ve been doing workouts but I’ve been thinking about cutting what you think
Do some plyometrics. Work on your power and decreasing your contact time on the ground. 170 isn’t too big for your height
6 and half feet I weigh 150
Lebron 6'9 any dude over 6'5 can dunk on 1 or 2 feet easily, jumping off 2 feet provides more raw jumping explosive power
You called out zion so many times yall got beef?
Russ is pretty much like lebron just less lengthy
Got my first dunk at 5’9 idk my vert
yo bro what should i do. i am 5'10 175lbs my vert is around 34inches bulk or cut?
Stay where you at and focus on strength training
I dont know where you got that Zion vertical is 43 but that man did a dunk from the free throw line no cheating easy, like Ant and Ja cant do that at all and their size difference wouldnt justify this
I’m 180 at 5’11 right now and I can tap the rim. My goal weight is 165, how much will my vertical be affected by losing that much weight? Anyone have any similar experience ?
I’m about the same height and weight. I just started dunking at 34 yrs old because I realized that it’s not about weight as much as body fat percentage and strength in the right muscles. To jump higher, focus on Hip Thrust, Squats, calf raises, Sit ups and Pull ups. You’ll gain more muscle and but should also be loosing fat by doing cardio like playing basketball at least every other day. Nate Robinson for example, was about 185 lbs at 5’8 Barefoot and was ridiculously explosive with about A 44 inch Vertical. Some of it is genetics and most of us aren’t equipped like Nate but we can for sure get our Vert to about 35 inches max and be able to dunk (if you have atleast A 5’10 wingspan)
@@rell4219 Thanks! I actually do all those exercises/lifts already and I am pretty explosive when driving but just not my vert.
I guess I forgot to mention that even though that’s my height I have a pretty small frame and skeletal structure. I’m “small boned” despite being that height/weight LOL 😂 But thank you for the reply
I'm at 6ft 280lbs with 32inch two step vert but I also got trex arms wingspan below my height gg, I got tons of fat to lose but I'm excited to see if I can hit 40inch after cutting
What is your wingspan
I am 6'2 but i have 6 ft wingspan
@@MJ23GOAT-qf4ik i feel you bro i just measured im 6ft with exact same 6ft wingspan but my shoulders are broad so my arm itself is even shorter, standing reach at 7ft 8 inches so touching rim needs 28inches to dunk prob 38inches
@@MJ23GOAT-qf4ik have you tried stretching? I increased my wingspan by 2" by stretching.
Hey bro whats your standing reach?
I honestly haven't measured it before but I do definitely have long arms for my height.
I'll probably do I video of me taking all my measurements in the future (Standing reach, wingspan, etc).

5’9 131 pounds at 14 i can also dunk should i bulk or no
Yes you should

YET.
im 5'8 black kid 125 pounds dunking at 16
Ja is like 165lbs they said he put on 15lbs during his suspension but idk man lol
How do I find my ideal weight for basketball tho? I went from 75kg and 35inch vert to 80kg and 38inch vert at the same time. (6'0) But Im still skinny so how far can I take it before my vert suffers from it?
I like this question. The goal is always to get stronger and overload your body over time. If you can do that at the same weight, then you’re probably around your ideal weight.
You have to continue to push your strength limits, that should be your focus. As long as you’re strong and lean you should be fine. Only you will know how far you can take it, through experience. Once you feel it’s suffering you can dial down your weight. Good luck 🤞🏾
@@JiggyHills thx
75 kg is not skinny
@@Unlimited-D-Works Im at 80kg and still skinny🤷♂️
@@simon_thebucket bro I’m 60 kg at around 6’0 or 6’2. Adding 15-20 kg on me would make me look like a normal man.
Ay bro, I'm 5'10-5'11 with a 6'3 wingspan (I'm black) At 15 and I have a 26 Inch vertical. would cutting be the only thing I need to do or should I implement workouts like skipping rope?
I’m assuming you don’t go to a gym yet. I’d probably mostly focus on practicing your jumping form and getting in those reps. It’ll go along way. You can also implement some Plyometrics like sprinting, depth jumps, etc.
Jumping rope is good but you will need more intense stuff like max effort jumps and plyos. Once you’re ready for the weight room, the next step would be to get super strong. If you’re a little heavy you can slim out but you’re still young as long as you’re a healthy weight don’t worry about cutting too much right now.
Zion doesn’t have a 43 inch vert.
Also you can say relative to size or whatever but z and ant is real power ja is not strong at all. Ja is just a bigger a.i who is actually 5'10 or 5'11 also has a 41 inch vert didn't come from power comes from being light and athletic
not true at all ja is definitely strong anybody who can jump high is strong in certain ways.
@@ayvol2036 Iverson has a 41 in vertical 😂🤦
@demigodt34 He does
@@PJFort-wi9et yea you can Google it and a I was a killer but he was physically strong he was mentally strong and Iverson was only 165 pounds very light so he's wrong on this one
Strength relative to bodyweight is the only kind of strength that matters in this context though. It’s like calling a elite rock climber like Alex Megos weak because he’s skinny and can’t lift as much as someone like world’s strongest man winner Brian Shaw. They may not be able to lift as much weight, but Alex can do one arm pull ups with ease while Brian would struggle to do even a single regular pull up!
And it’s stupid to say that someone is athletic but not strong since strength is an incredibly important component of athleticism. To be athletic you have to generate a lot of force very quickly. But it doesn’t matter how quickly you can generate force if you’re not strong enough to generate much force in the first place! And A.I. was a star football player in high school. How many elite football players do you know who are weak?

@1:30 Ayo what ?
Ja is definitely not the strongest. He’s the lightest and doesn’t jump that much higher than the other two guys. Zion is definitely the strongest relative to his bodyweight because he’s got a propel 300 pounds over 40 inches in the air. Easy way to look at this is to throw 100 pounds on Ja. How high will he jump?😅
Yeah I hear the Zion case it’s definitely possible, maybe even likely. It’s possible I was just initially shocked my Ja’s strength. Also, when Zion was 300 pounds he definitely wasn’t jumping the same like we expected when he first came into the league.
@@JiggyHills for sure. Still crazy to propel your body 42+ inches at at least 260 pounds like we saw him jumping during that Duke combine. I’m really interested in this suck overall. Would love to see strength numbers for these guys. Obviously a lot of them are untrained, but I bet you they could push a lot of weight squatting relative to their weight if they were trained.
