[QUOTE=raiderfan19]if you want to lose weight drink ALOT of water. It will do the same thing that taking diet pills do. It makes water run through your system quickly. Also try drinking a glass of water before you eat, one while your eating and one after you eat. It helps your digestion which is a big part of your weight.[/QUOTE]
Thanks for the advice. I've heard drinking water helps you lose weight, and I might just try drinking it excessively to help lose weight.

:lol: I know.
I bench normally around 370-380 but I don't really train much anymore. When I was at Texas I did alot of weight lifting but now I have a full time job and family. I don't really have the time anymore.
ht: 6-1
weight: 147 lb
vertical leap: 29-30
max bench: 155lb
standing reach: ?
wingspan: ?
40 yard dash: Idk but it is probably around 4.7-4.8
ht: 6'0"
weight:160-165 lbs
vertical leap: 26, about 31 with approach
max bench: 210
standing reach: 7'7"
wingspan: 6'0"
40 yard dash: IDk but pretty fast
I can only get two knuckles over the rim so I need about 6 more inches to dunk. So, the question is, what part of the body is the most influential in allowing one to dunk? There's been calf talk here and I've always thought the lower back was a big factor.
So, from your experience what would you vote on?:
calves, hams, quads, back, midsection, butt, upper body ??

Posterior chain: back, hamstrings, glutes, calves. Don't sleep on the quads, abs, and even upper body though. I'd just recommend some plyometrics. If you don't mind working hard for about an hr 3x a week and probably cut back on any ballin for the first 2wks, I bet you can be dunking after 2 weeks of Scott's Creation vertical leap program. Google it, they used to sell it in Slam then it got all over the internet.
why would you cut back on the ballin datz? Im trying to get my vert up a little too so i may end up doing that too im just curious why you would do that?
Just while you're doing the program, because you don't want to end up overtraining and open yourself up to knee tendinitis, or possibly more serious injuries. You probably won't have enough legs left to hoop after it anyways, that program is serious especially the quad supersets at the end.

what nfl team do you play for?:roll:
Actually I am a bodybuilder (and a lawyer), and I am actually going to enter my first show in April, the NPC Atlanta. I have been a big guy since college, which is how I got the nickname Johnny Bravo...which is kind of funny since I am a black man.
