Help me with my vertical

[ohbaby]

Hi. So I want to be able to dunk but I can only grab the rim right now and want to get over that hump. I was wondering if anyone has any tips for me orexercises that would be good for me to be able to jump probably 5 more inches higher. My brother said I should workout out my leg muscles because I'm astick (150lbs and 6ft). Thanks in advance.

You could get on one of those programs intended to increase vert like air alert or jump bible.

What's your vert now?

its not only calf muscles, you gotta work your core also.

if you want a program you should try air alert . .

If you're 5'8 and can only touch the backboard you need to build your core and leg strength first.
