Yo my names terry kang and im 178cm tall i can dunk sometimes but its not consistent, im confused on the form of jumping and im not sure i have the right jumping technique, i mean i can hang on the rim two hands but i just cant get the ball down. I think its coz i try to jam it and it results in loss of jump and just hits off the back of the rim, but how do u grab the basketball, what form is best to dunk with????

[...] This is fairly basic, and most programs DO include how to do this. You can learn the basics on speed vs strength here. [...]

Jacob,

I just wanted to say, thank you to you and all the guys and gals that comment. Money is tight for us all so I read all the comments and your answers and try to put it together.
Well, I did it. I won my county Senior Games in the 200 meters, 400 meters, running long jump and yes I did, I broke the state record in the standing long jump……….I jumped an easy 8′9.75″. I say easy because no one in my age group was coming close, so I conserved for my other events. My track base work is almost non exsited
because the winter was crazy. Clearly, my strength was the kicker. I was surpised that I won the standing long jump, I’ve been jumping strong in practice, but no one came within 20 yards of me in the 200 meters, strength and confidence in my workouts. I knew for the 200, if I got out front my power would bring me home and it did, I even I even shut it down around the 150. The state finals are in the last week of Sept. My intent is to break 3 records….200 meters, 400 meters and the standing long jump.
To all who read this, this is he real deal, I have 4 gold medals to prove it. Wish me luck fellow jumpers and speed demons……….any coaching ideas for any of my events are welcome, especially the running long jump. Lets make it a team win, all of you channeled by me.
