Thanks man I started documenting my journey to dunking. I'm 13 5'9 and I'm right there but can't throw good lobs. I've been watching ur channel for a few months now and I can say off of first ha d experience that ur tips truly help. And work
You should do some overviews on the structure of your weekly training splits, I'm curious to see how THP is progressing your load over time to ensure you are recovering enough for jump sessions to avoid knee pain
Hi ric, great job as always. I wanted to ask you if you think your knee injury had something to do with cartilage, because i been recovering for a chondromalacia pattelae grade 1 for 2 months and discovered that there is softening in the cartilage, and being that cartilage cant heal im pretty terrified about not being able to do jump trainin again. Im going to the doutor by the way, but wanted to know your take as well
i don't think my knees were that bad. I only felt it in the patellar tendon so I don't wanna give any advice on cartilage injuries. I hope you get better bro
@@RiqB dammm bro, its so awkward because i didnt even have that much pain, but following your exemple im being very careful and respecting my limits. Stay safe and get that dunk for the short kings brother✊️
@@kiramei5856with chondromalacia you don’t want to be doing isometrics because that will actually make it worse and avoid loading your knees back to back days. I’ve been dealing with it since April I didn’t know what it was and kept doing isos which slowly made it worse.
@@domidunks yeah this hapenned with me too, its kinda odd that all the knee pain recovery videos dont talk about that since its fairly common. So we can still do jump training but with a *very* strict training and recovery ?
@@kiramei5856 Yeah as long as it doesn’t hurt you can train or jump, if it hurts you need to stop. I’ve cut the range of motion on squats and keep them controlled, same with lunges. For jump sessions I’ve had to cut back the volume too.
if you're just starting with jump training, take it easy. You're knees probably aren't used to it yet and you could get knee pain pretty quick if you jump a lot every day, so maybe take every third day off or something. I don't know what training specifically you are doing (strength training? Plyometrics? Just Jumping?) so i can't really say how much training is too much. Just make sure that you stop doing max effort jumps immediately if you feel any knee pain so that it doesn't get worse. Also do knee pain preventation stuff, even if you don't have any knee pain at the moment
@ 1:28 295lbs for fast rhythm Repeat Squats will also fuck your knee up that’s a more Forceful movement and should be treated as so. I wouldn’t go any heavier than 185lb or 60% - 65% Half Squat 1RM for rhythm repeat squats for velocity. As your half squat max goes up your 60% - 65% of 1RM goes up, that’s when you start adding weight to rhythm repeat squats not by putting 75% or heavier on the bar and trying to move it eccentrically and concentrically fast. that’s just too much downward force along with Gravity on your knees at that type of velocity and you will develop knee pain

Really important question!!!
Can I use this rehab method for Osgood Schllater as well. I got it because I was growing so fast.
Hey Riq, just wanted to know how much your THP program was?
Hey riq how many sets and reps for the 12second back squat and the depth jump
How many times a week do u do depth drop?

I've been training to dunk for 4 days in a row, should I take a break? If yes, how many days?
Bruh

How many total drop landings would you recommend doing in a session?
4 sets of 5 reps about 2 times per week
@@RiqB thanks bro
What's your current standing vert?
35 inches
Riq b can i do isometric with interval of 6 hours a day if i have knee pain
That's actually the perfect thing to do! 3 times a day every day with 6 hour intervals in between
@@RiqB thanks, i asked this question because its research based so that i had high chance of you answering me

yeah that might be one of the reasons i had really bad knee pain
How much do you pay for thp?
He never tells
Hella expensive
