Poll- can you dunk?

[kingslender]

sort of a weird question, but Im curious as to who can actually dunk a regulation NBA basketball ino a regulation 10 foot rim. Ive been working on my vertical leap very hard for over 2 months, and Ive always been into basketball, but Im still about two inches away. I just wanted to know how many b-ballers can jam, and if not, how close are you? And does anyone have any advice for geting me above the rim?

i can

alot of people on here dont believe me but i first dunked last year (15 years old/wieght 183/5'8"/bf i think like 10 %/and im white for most that its hard to believe).
right nw im starting my first weight training for ball and power. i did a really serious ply program and it did nothin for me but it was the program. i think the program im going on will help.

ex. mon heavy squats, deads, lungs

tues: abs upper body

wed: easy leg curls and leg extensions

thurs: plys abs

fri medium: wokr on swissball and wobble board squats, different leg workouts for balance and agility.

sat: ball all day

sun rest

ps but i will be playing ball like 3 hours a day to 5 like usual.

re dunk

Power cleans, front squats, step ups and plyo's will put you up to the rim in no time... Watch the days that u play ball dont interfere with your training. Ive seen alot of people workout there legs and then go and play ball expecting to jump higher, bye then your legs are so shot youve got nothin left to give.

good luck

I could almost do 2 handed dunks before I developed thendonitis in my knees. Now, I can barely do a one handed dunk.
