I want to dunk!!! :rant
Hey guys, I've been getting back into basketball after a long (really long) hiatus.
I played b-ball back when I was a little kid, in my city league. But afterwards, I didn't really ever play - I played a bit in high school just for fun, but never joined the team or anything.
I'm 24 now, in college, and I've been playing steady b-ball. Probably about two days a week I play for about 2-3 hours.
Now, I'm 5'10, and I tried to see how high I could jump, and the highest I can reach is just the bottom tip of the backboard!!
I want to know, is it realistically possible for a guy my size to be able to ever dunk a basketball on a standard 10 ft rim?? I'm thinking about starting some of those vertical leg workouts.
Please tell me what I have to do guys, I really want to dunk.

Re: I want to dunk!!! :rant
I've seen jump systems help 5'8 guys be able to dunk. I'm about 5'7 did them for about 2 months and I got to touch (barely though ) the rim...

I don't get picked last at the park anymore
Re: I want to dunk!!! :rant
The highest I was jumping was when I was 24 or 25. Playing three mornings a week plus a little more. No training otherwise. I quit playing for about 3 years and resumed at 29. I had a goal to dunk before I turned 30, trained hard this time and was able to get a few down. At 6'1", I have a couple inches on you, I would say you should come pretty close, just set small goals every month.

no, it is not too late. you can still improve your basketball skills and increase your vertical jump.
