No, no it isnt. What would race have anything to do with jumping ability?

There are plenty of black guys, Asian, Mexican etc...the same height that are just as non athletic as you.

What held me back in basketball was that I wasn't that athletic, laterally I couldn't move side to side fast enough and that hurt me. At the same time, I can still dunk in between my legs, rock the cradle, windmill etc.. Im only 6'3'' with a 6'3'' wing span. I cant palm a basketball and I got like a 25'' vert.

Well, I am 5'10". And I can't dunk. In fact, I can't touch rim (the last time I tried about 2 months ago.) Although I have quick lateral movement, I am about an inch from touching rim.

What can I do to improve my vert? I want to at least grab rim damn it. And I love to rebound, but I sometimes, I lose out because of height/jumping, even though I try my hardest.

Keep jumping. It's muscle memory. Jump jump jump.

Thanks,

But, like what kinda jumping are you talking about? Like what kinda exercises? Or just just in place a bunch a times?

And how much height can I possibly gain from just jumping?


I just never heard of this before.

Who knows how much you can gain, I couldn't tell you really, Ive never really worked out for jumping. Ive never lifted weights with my legs all I do is jump. The more I jumped, the higher I got.

I know calf raises, pylos, and things like that will help.

There are a million jump programs out there, I am sure one of them is bound to work.

Like, did you just stand under the hoop and jump, or did you do running jumps? Or just randomly?
