You Can Learn How To Dunk in 4 Weeks With This Program…

If you are just a few inches away from dunking then you have come to the right place. If you follow the exercise routine I have laid out for you below, I am certain that you can learn how to dunk in 4 weeks or less. If you stick with this routine and train HARD for the next four weeks you should gain a minimum of 5-6 inches on your vertical leap.

When it comes down to it, in order to increase your vertical jump you have to improve your EXPLOSIVE POWER. The best way to accomplish this is to lift with VERY HEAVY weights. When performing each exercise we should not be able to do more than 8 reps per set. If you can lift more than this, then you need to increase the weight.

The main muscles involved when performing 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 first workout we have is The Strength Workout. We are going to do this 3 times per week. Like I mentioned earlier we are not going to be doing a bunch of reps. We want to do 3 sets of 8 using VERY HEAVY weight. Here are the exercises:

Squats

Lunges

Good Mornings

Hamstring Raises

Dead Lifts

You probably recognize most, if not all, of these exercises since they are very common. I am not going to explain how to perform them. If there is an exercise that you are not familiar with then do a search for it on Google and you will easily be able to find more information about it.

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

Improve Your Jumping Technique:

An easy way to quickly improve your vertical leap is by focusing on your jumping form. This is an area that most people never give any thought to. However, implementing the proper jumping techniques can improve your vertical anywhere from 2-4 inches!

I have created a page to help others learn how to improve their jumping form. Check it out by clicking on the “How To Dunk” link I have below. If you implement the strategies I have for improving your jumping technique, you can IMMEDIATELY improve your vertical by 2 to 4 inches. Not bad considering you haven’t even begun the strength program yet. So don’t forget to visit that page.

If you consistently use this workout and train really HARD for 4 weeks, I know for a fact that YOU WILL increase your vertical jump. I can say this because I personally increased my vertical from 31 to 43 inches over a 7 month period of time using a workout program just like this one. So, get to work, learn how to dunk, and start impressing your friends :)
