height 6 feet
wingspan 6'1 1/2
weight 155
ver 30
Have any of you guys met anyone who is noticeably taller than you but he or she has a lower shoulder height than you? I' ve met a lot of ppl like that.
height 6'0-6'1
weight 150-155
reach 7'10
standing jump 30
running jump 35
bench haha 90?
wingspan 6'1
ive slapped stickers on a backboard to measure my touch and i can touch the screws on the rubber on the side of the backboard and have measured everything and definately touch 10'9, yet and can hardly dunk a full sized ball, only done it a few times. anyone have similar problem? with smaller balls i can go off the backboard semi-easily
[QUOTE=LebrickJames84']Here a gauge so you guys can see your full of it.
If you about 6'3 and you can reach anyway from 10"7-10"10 that's about 29-32 in vertical
Stephen Curry 6'3 Standing was 10'6.5 and his standing vertical was 29.5.
Darren Collinson 6'2 Standing Reach was 10'7 his standing vertical was 30.5
Johnny Flynn 6'1 Standing Reach was 10'8.5 his standing vertical was 33
DJ Augustine 5'11 Standing Reach was 10'3 his standing vertical was 28.5
To sum it up if your between 5'11 to 6'1 and can't grab rim with ease of no step you don't even have a 30 in vertical. If your 6'2-6'3 and can't legitally smack your wrist on the rim you don't have a 30 in vertical.
This is just 30 inches, to get a 35 in vertical like most of you guys claim you have to be able to run and literally get about 15+ inches over the rim, which 90% of you can't do.[/QUOTE]
except consider that these players typically have longer arms and higher reaches then the average player, standing reach is what matters. some point guards in the nba are about 6'0 and have 6'10 wingspans, adding about 5 inches to their standing reach, thus 5 less on their vertical than the average person their height that can get just as high
Great thread!
Vertical leap - 28 inches. I know, it sucks.
Height - 5'10 or 5'11. Maybe 5'10 1/2?
Weight - like 160ish
Max bench press - I haven't "maxed" out for a while, but I do reps of 250
Wingspan - How the hell would I know? It's probably not great, though.

Yeah. I've also met people who are my height and weight but are noticeably fatter or leaner, stronger or weaker. It's weird.

IKill you play highschool ball?
For those of you who have actively tried to improve your verticals how did you go about it? A couple years ago I started squatting regularly and I probably got up to a 31 inch vertical, but since college I've basically forgone any of that, especially since most college students curl at the squat rack (most annoying thing ever).

squats are probably the best thing you can do.
the other thing is just jumping. practice jumping. practice your form. make sure you are exploding up rather than out.
plyometrics are great. stuff like box jumps mixed with standing one leg calf raises.
never was a fan of strength shoes although i used them.

Yeah, I've recently got into long distance running so I'm afraid to squat if I'm clocking 30-35 miles per week (and it will gradually increase I think). I'm actually afraid running has caused my vertical to decrease even further.
Height- 6'7"
Weight- 225
Reach- 8'7"
Standing jump- 30 ish(in prime)
Running jump- 37"(in prime)
Bench- N/A
Ht - 6'1
Wt - 215
Bench - 290
Vert - never tested it, but can just barely dunk
40 - 4.75 back in HS football

Long distance running works your slow twitch muscles, vert is all about explosion.. so quick sprints and burst squats (going down and exploding up onto your toes) are the type of workouts you should be doing for your vert.
