Now, that’s motivation and dedication. You went from a 24” to a 50.5” vertical. You are jumping more than double your vertical when you started. You taught me something.
@@crabb9966 Nope just knowledge of proper training, I went from 17 inch vertical to 38 inch vertical in less than 3 months following all the best resources I can find
He talked with Chris Spell and he basically said that Guinness is only “official” because Guinness self proclaimed themselves as such, so we really could create a better standard for it. Hopefully if dunking gets in the Olympics we can maybe test guys at the games.
Yeshua Hamashiach is God in the flesh, the Son of God, the Word of God, and he died so that you may be presented blameless in the sight of the Father. And so you may inherit his kingdom. The LORD Yeshua Hamashiach is the only way to the Father and his kingdom. Repent of your sins accept him into your life as your LORD and Savior before it's too late, every day is not guaranteed. John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me. May God bless you all.
seeing the progress played out like this is awesome! I'd be interested in a 0-50" video where you go over you early sports and do a whole break down!!!
I think i follow you since 2019 and to see all this training video and dunk session again makes me nostalgic You can be proud of yourself you are amaizing
Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. You posted that quote and it stuck with me. You know like I know injuries aren’t a stopping point but a learning point. Good job on pushing thru and keep grinding
100% agreed, I never had major injuries during my teens and twenties, I was really athletic but didn't have any improvements until I sprained both my ankles in three years. Then I started to study on my body and advanced exercises. Now I'm turning 34 before December, I'm much stronger than before and hopefully when my ankle fully recovered, I can still enjoy dunking
Hi Isaiah, Thx for the amazing video. I am really thankful for sharing everything so openly with us! It is very helpful for all the people out here to understand, that injuries are part of the road and there is always a way to overcome them. Thx again!
bro this is so inspirational man hopefully I can do the same one day. I also really appreciate the books you recommend I read them and they have helped me in other areas of life you're very inspirational thank you
i have been doing all sorts of vert training i have seen online going to the weight room doing plyos and i went from a 21 inch vert to a 34 ich. i loved ur advice and fo ru people this stuff really works
Wow! Isaiah I saw your videos when I was a teen I find It's very impressive you are still working in your jump haha. I thought you was training for being a NBA player or something like that when i saw your videos I didn't undertood English so much. I'm very glad you are improving.
hey isaiah, if youre reading this comment just letting you know that if you get a sharp or stabbing pain, DONT push through it telling yourself it might be something else. its always better to prevent injury rather than fix it, and the longer you wait, the more chronic it can become and can potentially lead to other pains and injuries. stop the workout, and seek clinical help. hope this helps!
My god I used to be able to dunk then I stopped for 2 months because of religous stuff and eid and yesterday I went to the court and I got rim blocked like 10 straight times glad I saw this to help me get motivated again.
Here is what I learned from this video: "No matter what life threw at me - the hardship, the adversity, the challenges, the downfalls - I found opportunities, ways and a plan around it. I never gave up." Great work Isaiah! You are an inspiration to many people! I am 35 years old and I am at it for 15 months now. I am beyond the rim now, and when I started I couldn't touch the board (overweight back injury, etc)! Nowhere as close as you, but hopefully I will dunk one day. Thanks for sharing your journey with us! Chase the 52' inch next!
This is a great video that captures the inevitable injuries of training for peak performance and being human - all while learning your body. I have always noticed you may be over arching your lower back in the squat, especially at the bottom. That may be related to the back injury. Perhaps experiment more with finding a more neutral spine for load bearing? That arch in the low back puts the hips in a certain position (tilt) and stretches the hams more. Just a thought. Wishing you the best.
If you have any minor twitch in any area during a heavy lift, it’s time to investigate what weak points you have lead to that. It’s not time to do another lift to get around it.
When you were jumping lower on the ATG training, did you change any other aspect of your training? Like were you still jumping, dunking, playing b-ball at the same intensity/frequency? The only reason ATG probably didn’t make immediately jump higher, is because two foot jumping relies a lot more on raw strength like full squat, and the start of ATG is all lighter and unilateral. The absolute strength of your body was the limiting factor of your jumping height at that time, and you started to lose some of that absolute strength when you started ATG intro lifting.
Good job! Would be great to hear a little bit more how you got rid of your knee pain. Iam dealing with tendonitis for more than 6 months and slow strength does not really help a lot.
I've been following you since I came across your vid of the "360 BTB and BTL" in a dunk compilation. I had to know who that was! Haha! Congrats on the progress, hard work, growth and achievement👍
@@timursezer3787 yeah so I've heard the 24 hour fitness rings are a bit lower...but it was still impressive and it was what got my attention to look Isaiah up and follow him 👍
im at 27 inch vertical at 6"3 with a shitty wingspan but almost dunking for the first time. im getting hungry and want to train every second of every day. im doing my lifting, stretching and plyometrics and i cant wait to thrown down my first dunk 😩
Hey man, been following you for a few years, this is awesome! Since you were doing so much strength training, I'm wondering what you were doing nutrition wise?
“He was despised and rejected- a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief. We turned our backs on him and looked the other way. He was despised, and we did not care. Yet it was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrows that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him the sins of us all. He was oppressed and treated harshly, yet he never said a word. He was led like a lamb to the slaughter. And as a sheep is silent before the shearers, he did not open his mouth. Unjustly condemned, he was led away. No one cared that he died without descendants, that his life was cut short in midstream. But he was struck down for the rebellion of my people. He had done no wrong and had never deceived anyone. But he was buried like a criminal; he was put in a rich man’s grave. But it was the Lord’s good plan to crush him and cause him grief. Yet when his life is made an offering for sin, he will have many descendants. He will enjoy a long life, and the Lord’s good plan will prosper in his hands. When he sees all that is accomplished by his anguish, he will be satisfied. And because of his experience, my righteous servant will make it possible for many to be counted righteous, for he will bear all their sins. I will give him the honors of a victorious soldier, because he exposed himself to death. He was counted among the rebels. He bore the sins of many and interceded for rebels.” Isaiah 53:3-12 NLT "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16 God loves you so much and showed that by sending His Son to die for us so that we may inherit eternal life. We deserve hell but He gave us heaven through faith in Jesus.

Needed to see this cause my shoulder been injured for over a year left ankle since February, back juss got injured too prolly had bout 5 6 injuries within the last year
hey Isaiah, do you think that your 50.5'' vert also contributed a lot from high volume training in Oct-Nov 2021? because you saide you built a really high capacity from that training. high volume sprint ilfts at high altitude environment
Yes a 50 inch vertical help you get buckets it also makes you have an advantage over the other teams because you can touch the rim and dunk almost anyone can get a 50 inch vertical
🤝
I see you John

I still remember ur 24-36 vert video, u've came a long way, it's almost as if I'm watching a movie of ur journey
“What you practice, grows stronger.” Mindfulness, pathos, and work ethic beats talent anytime! Congrats!!! 👏👏👏
Yes.
Mindfulness, work ethics and potathos.
Unless the guy works just as hard
Very inspiring. Struggle is 100% real brother but ultimately it's how you overcame them. Thanks for sharing.

he's done videos like that before, he had a video of how he got to a 36 inch vertical, then one for 36 to 45, and this one is his 45 to 50

The day we’ve all been waiting for
Wow! Isaiah I saw your videos when I was a teen I find It's very impressive you are still working in your jump haha.
I thought you was training for being a NBA player or something like that when i saw your videos I didn't undertood English so much.
I'm very glad you are improving.

Isaiah is gonna have a 50-55 inch vertical soon
i bought your coaching one day i’ll jump like you
I really respect his effort and geeat result
Love your story bro!
bro I wanna see some NBA players react to u
There is footage of NBA players reacting to kilgannon if I'm not mistaken. They all had salty looking faces. The salt wasn't from the sweat either.
This just goes to show you folks that if you want a massive vertical put in your head that it’s gonna take some years to achieve
