Another first!!

This past week I worked out after school, usually I lift twice a week in school doing squat and power clean and once a week after school doing squat, leg press, and ham curls. I did 300 on leg press which is 60 pounds more than I could do when I started training in July. Anyways, went to the outdoor court a little bit ago and slammed 9'10 dirty style!!! It seems so much easier to dunk it now!! I also dunked it on the 10'1/2" goal three times and I have never even dunked on that goal before!!!! So lets just say today felt pretty awesome and I felt like I was getting up there!! I dunked my wrist easy on 9'10. Plan on going to the gym on Sunday to make another video and see where im at. I feel like I am making progress though, not real fast but fast enough!! Got to get even higher though!!!

Getting better!

I went to the gym today and jumping around a little bit. I was able to grab rim pretty easy off of standing vertical, my guess is im about a 27.5" right now. Running vertical is probably 34"-35". I also was able to grab with 2 hands off of 1 step. To my surprise I was able to dunk it 4 times in a row!!! I missed a few times but I am getting it much more consistent than I was 2 weeks ago when I got 3 dunks down out of about 15 attempts. Today I got about 6 dunks down out of about 10 attempts. Still wanting to get higher and be able to slam it hard!!! Need to get it off the dribble to. What yall think!?



Progress

I have not been to the gym to try some dunk attempts at 10' so I do not really know how I will do. I have been making progress dunking on 9'6 though! I can dunk 2 hands off of 2 feet which I used to not be able to do. I can also alley oop myself off the backboard and dunk with 1 and 2 hands. Definitely getting better jumping off of 2 feet as I do it more because it hurts my shins jumping off 1 leg. I am getting stronger too!! We lift weights at school 2 times a week and today we did 6 sets of 4 reps. On squat I did 205 which I thought was pretty good as I weigh about 145. I am just going to try and keep getting stronger and just keep doing dunks as it seems to be helping. Hopefully as project graduation at the end of May when I graduate, I will be able to throw some dunks down at 10'. Project graduation is an over night lock in at the gym and everyone in high school goes! It would be pretty cool to be able to slam some down with everyone there!!! Plus I will just have gratuated and that would be an awesome graduation gift!! 6" in 8 months possible!? Guess we will see.
