>and train hard

train harder then

Do you understand that Nate Robinson is a professional athlete? Do you know what being a professional in something means?

Going to the gym for 6 hours a week and then complaining on an internet message board is not the path to success son.

>>35111876
if you don't think it's possible, it definitely isn't possible
and I've seen videos of short white dudes jumping
depends on your proportions though cause these dudes are built like jack rabbits, all legs
it also depends a lot on hand size
me for example, I'm black, 5'9'', and can dunk, but I have to dunk with two hands to get the amount of explosion I need, because I can barely palm the ball
If I dunk with one hand the ball just flies out of my hand.
>>
>>35112932
I barely can dunk at 6'1. I would love to see that.

I'm 6'5 and I dont know how to jump with the ball and do a fancy dunk, all I can do are one/two hand run-up dunks. Fml

He meant master race as in being white

Definitely possible op, I'm 5'7 and not even black and I can dunk. Its all about the rate at which you can extend your legs, my squat 1rm is only 3 plate so I'm not strong by any means but I can use that strength that I have faster than someone who can squat 4pl8 and doesn't jump as high as me.

>tldr train to be explosive, dunno if that's actually possible but whatever.
>>
5'10 and I can get about 3 inches above the rim.. I'm a handlet so i can't even pull the ball though
>>
>>35116694
I'm as tall as you but I off the rim by 3 cm. I blame my arm elasticity, people who are as tall as me have longer arms when they extend them above their heads

>>35111876
LOL, you guys think blacks are magic or something? If you can dunk or not depends on how high you can jump. How high you can jump depends on how strong and explosive you are. The more you can squat, the higher you jump.

FYI: One of the worlds best jumpers is swedish. Nordic masterrace bitches!

Hypogastrium muscle and the muscle of the rear of the leg are what make s you jump higher
traine thoose
>>
>>35119310
jump a lot
there's no way around it
>>
>>35115131
either way...
>>
>>35119367
Hams? Could you mean hams?
>>
>>35119367
>>35119448
there are a lot of muscles involved in jumping
think about how many different muscles tense up when you try to jump as high as you can
>>
>>35111876
Yeah I'm 5'8" at 19 years old and I can touch the rim. I just need to improve my squat and deadlift a bit more and do some more sprint training and I should be able to dunk.
>>
>>35116859
god damn spud webb so fucking amazing
>>
1) Jump technique
2) Light bodyweight
3) Weight training for legs aiming for fast acceleration
4) Plyometric training
>>
It depends on your natural strength and explosiveness. Muggsy Bogues was 5'3" and he dunked in practice. I don't think he ever dunked in a game.
>>
>>35111876
man I just today watched a video of a 5'9" black man doing a 350 from a few feet inside the free throw line. Anything is possible.
>>

Great way to spot dyels.

It's a box jump and is a legit exercise primarily used in olympic weightlifting.

It's not a "crossfit exercise" simply because some of those faggots peform them as well - just like a snatch and clean and jerk aren't.
