He puts it in the description bruh😅
❤❤
@dark ninja for the people who don't look in the description, such as me?
It literally said that at the beginning of the video
I'm 5'9 and I got mi firsts dunks earlier this week🔥
Pablocas 5 how bro
I've been training a long time, since I was 14 (now i'm 16), start with isometric holds to build strength and mind-muscle conection so you reduce risk of injury, then start implementing plyos and more explosive work in your workout.
You have to understand that It is a slow process.
so u r probably built like nate robinson
Do you have your routine?? If you do please tell me what it is. I am also 5’9” and I just touched the rim for the first time.
i'm 5 10 and just started being able to dunk recently. i can't dunk every day and it's discouraging cause i can only dunk on days where i'm feeling really gold
found out about this channel recently. These are straight GEMS you're sharing for free! appreciate your service!!
i love u dude honestly because of you I think I've found my true passion in strength and conditioning and skills training in depth with all the science. I love you frfrfrfrf
Been waiting for this more than Zion playing tonight
Another amazing video!! That part about the gto and stopping when going off of one with a lot of power was so interesting, never knew why that happened!
Thank you for the knowledge you share with us... absolutely precious. I' ll take my chance and really ask you to make the "coach's myths" episode and please include the negative/plyo step. It would be huge.
I would be interested in listening to an episode about top coaching myths and your solutions/alternatives to them.
Great work, the world needs this podcast
Probably my favorite episode thus far! Definitely want to hear more about the coaching myths!!!
I’m 29 5’10” and use to be able to lob it up and flush it in back when I was 20/21, I have since lost that ability as I hadn’t touched a court in a very long time, far too long. I have regained my ability to do a two foot jump and simply touch the rim just from playing pick up games and shooting everyday. Minimal weight lifting/plyometric work. If I found PJ when I was 14/15 I think I would have had a killer vertical. But I think him and I are about the same age.. Younger guys that come across PJ need to study him and incorporate what he talks about. You will have success.
29 is too young to be experiencing age related declines. It’s due to not training or adding weight
@@lancem1583 as I said, I lost that ability since I hadn’t been on a court for a very long time 6-7 years or so. By not touching a court I meant not being in the weight room, not running, pretty much not doing any type of training or vigorous exercise. I didn’t say the reasoning was my age. I included my age, and height, for reference, not to blame it. I may have came off as vague in my original comment 👍🏼
@@lancem1583 No, it isn't. Stop using pro athletes as a measuring stick for the rest of the world.
Have not watched it yet, but i know its all GEMS!!
Top contents, thank you guys
This podcast is godly
my 4-step approach sometimes dips below my standing lol. just transitioned to more plyos and 1/4 squat variations, but this was the real game changer :3
Best podcast!
Excellent one
Love your stuff
I believe that the fastest way for an individual to improve his vertical is to understand his personal mechanical jump technique that consistently gives him the best result and build on that while following the advice of pjfperformance in terms of warm ups, workout routines, and recovery. That's what I conclude at times, but I don't know if that's accurate and want to be educated if I'm wrong. I think that doing legs two times per week, combined with explosive full body workouts such as knee jumps, burpees, and sprints with pushups has worked well for me. For core I do hyperextensions, planks, and supermans because they take care of my spine and lower back areas. Most will say do upper body, legs, and core to jump higher, but I don't think it hurts to come up with an explosive full body workout you can do everyday.
I USE VERTCODE ELITE,
Now I have your attention (another great podcast first***)
When using the app is there an update you could do that allows the app to remember when you have added weight to an exercise so you don’t need to do it every time. Also allow you to fast log with these weights or allow you to copy set 1 to set 2 etc?
Love your work!
coach i have a question. what you think about training the eccentric overload and how it affects vertical jump. i did some researches and i found out that working the eccentric overload (single leg squat like you said) can reduce explosiveness. thank you
I would recommend adding some videos of dunkers jumping it would have been more helpfull
Going to use this for Taekwondo to improve my power generation in jumping techniques
Big fan of ur mechanics
Appreciate it!
@pjfperformance would you say there is some contralateral benefit due to cross education as an effect of the last 10 minutes of the dunk sessions?
Im 16 and have a 30 inch standing vert and a 30 inch approach. Definitely need to improve the mechanics lol
Hey Paul, did you make the Coaches myths podcast yet? The one about deceleration?
Why would being powerful in the knees 10:57 vs hips not be good for injury prevention? I'm curious because I've always been hip dominant and struggled with knee injuries throughout my basketball career. Curious on your take. Thanks
Paul, could you please go over static stretching again and if it should be put away with altogether or if it’s only to be done after workouts, in the morning and at night, please because the last podcast really had me confused. And if it’s only for certain body parts etc...
yeah, also, ive heard that it makes the stretched muscle temporarily/permanently weaker from other critics of it. I have the pjf system and I know you program it, but I just wanted some science on it
I think the general point he’s making is that tightness and hyper flexibility are both bad, and both should be avoided, but, hyper flexibility just happens to be worse.
People who are tight can see strains and other short term injuries. People who are hyper flexible can see long term, season ending injuries, like to the ACL or MCL.
Think of it like an upside down bell curve: on the two ends of the curve are the two extremes, hyper flexibility and tightness. The closer you are to those extremes, the greater your chances of getting some kind of injury. You wanna find that sweet spot in the middle of the bell curve, down low, where you’re not too tight, but not too flexible-that’s where you can best prevent injury.
So, if you’re tight in a certain muscle group, do some static stretching afterwards; if you’re not tight and are pretty mobile, there’s probably no need!
Gabe Mount being hyper flexible is not a risk if you train and get stronger THROUGH that flexibility
@@lachlaneft I don't exactly understand what you mean by, "get stronger through that flexibility." You mind elaborating?
Gabe Mount this can be done through holding tension through static stretches or even just training Full range of motion so that you have the strength to hold your body weight when you get into uncomfortable positions.. sorry had to rush that response hope it somewhat made sense.
I dont understand why he doesnt have more subs!
How do u get the right amount of muscle stiffness for one legged jumpers
Kenny Gregory is my boy...!! Legit 45 inch vert... if he had a better jumper he would've been really really good in the NBA. Still had a 7 year career overseas. Independence High School baby..!!! Idk if you know who Estaon Weaver is but he was on that squad with Kenny in High School... he was a legend in Ohio who never made it. If you don't know... you should check him out. Kenny had crazy bounce tho... it was insane. He also had a crazy wing span
"Fastest way to improve your vertical jump" explained in over an hour
Who else listen to this podcast many times?
It's weird because I coach high jump and my basketball players have the most athleticism but struggle the most with their jumping mechanics. I often ask them why they missed a jump and they rattle off a list of things they were thinking.
im 5'8 and got my first dunk last week on monday and just today i was able to do consistent dunks back to back for an hour
can you send me your daily workout please
It would be interesting to see what someone like me would be able to gain with your program. I'm 46 years old 5'10" 185lbs plays full court basketball 4-5 times a week and no knee or ankle injuries ever. Played varsity ball in high school and the best i could do back then was touch the rim with a couple of fingers. I wish there would have been programs like this back in 93 & 94.
You can still make it, 5'10 fam 🔥
Awesome. I’m a 42 never dunker and made it my goal to dunk in 2023. I never jumped higher than 20” vertical and could never get more than a handful of rim.
@Jeffrey Bonner go for it man. I mean really go for it but be smart. I started plyometric training but went a too hard core too fast and injured my groin. It's been 4 months and I just started being able to train again. Also I'm down to 175lbs from 185lbs. My goal is to get to and stay at 170lbs. I hope you succeed. Keep me up to date on your progress.
Can I use the vert code elite program to help with high jump?
how can i get a training session with you? i need to get my bounce back had it naturally after injury zero bounce 1st step also wayyy down
there were a lot of people who said they saw Wilt take the coin from the top of the backboard. Now I don't know how much of the vertical jump you have to have to do that if you are 7'1 but why would they make that up? It's such a specific thing. He won the vertical jump competition. I could absolutely imagine him doing that sort of stuff.
Do you guys do online analysis?
I’m 5’7 and 8 years old and i dunk on 14 feet rim
Wow
Wow
I'm 3'8 3 months old and I dunk on 9+10 21ft rim
can you tell me how can i find out the what is the weakest point of my vertical jumping, I mean how can I find out the first thing i should solve to improve my vertical jump
Please make a video on best diet for high jump
It has been 5 days since I started using this vertical jump plan however I was able to jump Four to five inches higher. I really believe in this plan hands down. Of all the programs I`ve tried before, this one is the best. I discovered this jump guidebook over here t.co/aX2oR1o9FS
Vegan, i have a friend who played pro overseas who is in his early 40s still in good athletic shape just obviously was at a higher body fat percentage. He went vegan for a month and was dunking again. He is probably 6’1ish. A good day is just whatever helps u stay low body fat wise. Fat dont fly and inflammation isnt good and vegan diet has been proven to reduce inflammation in studies.
Do I have enough power to dunk if I can touch the backboard from a standing/no aproach jump? Please help. Give me your opinion.
Prob not. If you could grab rum or touch rim then prob yes
What do I have to do to work with you!?
Wilt was the GOAT athlete. There are pictures of his head over the rim.
Hi, I've been working on ur vert code until sprained my ankle. But before I got injured, I can grab the rim with standing, dunking the volleyball at abt 15ft but barely put anything in at the full approach.
No nobody in the world can even touch 15 ft
Tyler mooney he means off a 15 foot approach he was able to dunk a volleyball
How often do you see deficiencies in hip mobility among your athletes, and how would you recommend someone improve interior hip mobility/range of motion?
As a runner, I don’t see much work in the lateral direction, and I’m very deficient in interior mobility, so I try to do my best with working on that and would love to hear your answer.
On a side note, have you done any research on the sleep that your athletes get, and how that affects performance, injury prevention, etc.?
Love the podcast
I really need this aswell ^
His video on sleep and injury risk - th-cam.com/video/ihZLEGeVnSk/w-d-xo.html
First Two weeks of this vertical jump program and the workouts feels wonderful, I cant test my vertical gain so far, since I haven`t completed the program yet, but I really like the sequence routine for legs, you feel the burn immediately and my legs are becoming stronger. It is not hard to research this jump program by Google. The jump program is over here t.co/aX2oR1o9FS
could you make a tutorial for @34:30 ?
Justin Darlington also had a weird approach while being one of the highest jumpers in the world
Just got my first dunk
I went from touching the rim to grabbing it in 2 weeks after starting the vert code elite. No 🧢
Lmao it’s been so long since i’ve heard someone talk good about dexton
Good. Lady. My. Like
Yea, I got really bad jump form 5"8... Touched 10"7 on vert tech earlier today. Both my feet are straight when I jump and i don't load my hips and its all quad and very fast also I lean back when i jump(dramatically and swipe at the vert tabs. Goal is to touch 11 feet in 10 weeks from now and lose 8 pounds while increasing all my strength and i stutter step when i jump towards a vert tech and during the rim I jump 39-40 inches. I think its because i don't think as much when going towards a rim. Will fix my technique after I finish the cut.
Did you?
@@DK-gl3ih I had an Achilles Injury, so I did not however the 8 weeks I spent fixing it I had a max vertical of 39-41 inches before 5ge injury and my vertical was going up weekly.
I'm 5"8 in shoes and I can grab the rim off vertical a inch past my finger and before that I could barely grab with my finger tips off vertical.
What’s a coupon code
I'm 5'10 and I able to dunk but just 2 or 3 times in a row my knee start to hurt after that, any suggestions? Ty
Knees over toes guy. Your welcome.
39:25 Paul describes high school
I agree. My standing vertical is 40” and my running vert is 49-50”. I want to do some vertical work with you tho PJF to see if I can improve my running vertical even more
Lmao you do not have a 50" vert guaranteed
No way in hell your standing vertical is 40”. You would be able to dunk off vert at like 5”1’. No way.
@@ClassicMist360 lmao some people dont know how to properly take their vertical. His way of measuring might be 50” 💀 but it definitely isnt a 50” vertical. When i was in highschool a teammate of mine was like “i have a 52” vertical” he was measuring his vert by knowing his height and then seeing how high his hand could touch when he jumped. Which isnt how u do it, probably what this kid did.
@@henrycavillsrealmustache3553 yea he needs to subtract another like 12" off that for the length of his arm haha
@@ClassicMist360 even more than that. Lmao im 6’ and can touch an 8’ ceiling flat foot but i do have a longer than average wingspan for my height.
Ok this video isn’t talking about it but if I continue to workout and playbasketball will my knee tendon still heal
You have to work it with physical therapy to heal it. But doing the wrong exercises could make it worse. What is wrong with which tendon? Tear, tendinitis?
Spanish subtitles?
Not that I believe Wilt’s vertical, but you’re only gonna jump as high as you have to. If not being tested and the game doesn’t require max vert, why would you ever jump higher than needed to score the basketball. Especially in that era.
Great show!
that dude with pj always get in my nerves lmao he talk so fast and low
zach 😂
Finally someone that thinks the same as me.
lol
nah he cool
haha I'm sure he's a cool dude but sometimes he can come off as a "yes man". I'm sure PJ has him on here because he knows his stuff. Speak with confidence my man! I'm sure you are featured here for a reason!
I'm 60 now it seems when u get older, its hard to gain those inches am i right ? I tried a couple of programs i got nothing , I mean 0 , but my body is more like 38 , 40 because i been doing martial arts 30 yrs.. any advice or like i said age and vert don't match ?
Its more about body fat %. Fat dont fly
I think you’ll struggle to make real improvements, especially if we’re talking explosive power. Increasing strength and minimising your body fat would be the way to go
Is it bad that when I jump the entirety of my power comes from my quads?
yes
isaiah rivera has a 34 inch standing vertical and a 48 inch running
The "meat" under my heels gets beat up starts to hurt after some tough games. Any tips?
Stop running heel to toe
Guys what is the meaning of stiffness or steveness
He said that the stiffness is the best thing in the one foot jump
Do you think I still have room for growth with my vertical at age 30?
Yèsss
Yes as long as you havent had any serious injuries to hamper development and also dedicated. If you are overweight or just a high body fat% percentage it will take longer. Fat dont fly is always the easiest way to get a vertical up. If you have fat you can lose and also at the same time put muscle mass on. You will jump higher without even having to do anything special.

Dexton
dennis smith 48
I am 30 with a 27inch vert 🤣, i know its shit, what can i do
I’m 5’11 and can’t dunk, help me!
help yourself
Did I misinterpret title? I kept waiting for examples (pictures/videos) of examples of specifics 🤷♂️
here's a clip of wilt jumping that high: th-cam.com/video/QF8yJ1J1W7Q/w-d-xo.html
Deandre Ayton has a vertical of 43.5 inches and he is 7'1", you probably never seen a clip of his head over the rim, most basketball players only jump as high as required to get to the goal
I swear ive seen a video of wilt jumping to block a shot and his head was nearly at the top of the backboard. Ill try and find it but i could be wrong 🤣
@@SneakyCoin616 that picture could be because of angle. Nobody is at the height of the backboard so no matter what unless they are behind the backboard he will look higher than he is.
@@henrycavillsrealmustache3553 it was a video
@@SneakyCoin616 ok the angle of the video lmao
This generation doesn't realize how easy that have it now. Oh, to be 12 years old again with youtube
I don’t understand how you’re supposed to decelerate. Someone please quickly explain.
You're not, deceleration was never the objective, going up is. You can't go up if you can't change the direction of the force you're applying, think of a car going around a corner, if you're going too fast you're never gonna make the turn, same with jumping, the deceleration occurs when you want to change the direction of the momentum.
@@HW.0029 when I go up off one leg, my knee feels like it's going to explode. I have no idea how I can safely transfer that force without knee pain.
If Jordan actually had a 48" he would beat Dwight Howard's record for vertical touch
For Jordan 48 very possible. That dude did a reverse onehanded elbow dunk with ease. I dont know if you even know that.
I can dunk with no approach but cant with approach :s
Lesson learned: chris staples is over 12 inches
5:51 bruuhh facts lool. I've been saying this. wilt be getting all the legends smh..
34:58 facts
I'm 5'7 can still dunk?
There's a 5'4 pro dunker on TH-cam
im 6'6 and fairly athletic and cant dunk, I need a 22 inch vert just to touch rim, and like 28 to dunk, so id say that at 5'7 its nearly impossible
@@ancellery6430 it’s not. 6’6 and can’t dunk 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@DK-gl3ih yeah, the 28 inch vert I would need is way above average
@@ancellery6430 I ma try tho
Dont doubt Wilt man. If you dont know. You dont know.
Lmao so you saying Wilt is the most gifted human to ever live and nobody has ever came close? Bruh 60” is a 5 FOOT jump. Vert doesnt take into account bending the legs for clearance. So that would mean Wilt with his legs stiff straight would jump over a Human. Not like putting his nuts over. His fucking feet over. His head would literally be 12 feet in the air. Lmaooo id rather just believe he smashed every woman on earth or whatever the rumor is with the amount of women he was piping up.
Lmao a 60” vert for wilt would mean that he could run and jump and just put his ass on the rim. 😂💀
Nick Young = fail
