there r a lotta variables 2 consider when asking a question like this, but on a average off the top of my head conclusion i say WITH PROPER USE OF WEIGHTS AND U STAY ON TRACK WIF A PROGRAM LIKE VJB U SHOULD B ABLE 2 GET AT LEAST 5 ICNHES

10 inches is a little 2 mcuh 2 ask though even in the time given,it takes more of a long term approach 4 vert increases like tat

and he said wif da use of weights a a gym

you may be able to get 10 inches in 15 weeks.

1) if you have a vertical of 20 or less inches and lack relative strength.

tips to increase vertical quicker.


1) increase your strength to weight ratio, also known as relative strength.

2) have a great consistent nutrician program set up to help aid in recovery.

3) do one of pavel ptsatsouline stretching books like beyond stretching and super joints after workout.

4) do a weight training program focused on increasing your limit strength, including squats, deadlift, and maybe a few olympic lifts.

if not doing olympic lifts have a well set up plyometric program to do.

when i train my athletes i usually have about 6 months with them so i do 4 months of trying to increase there strength to rate ratio with little plyos. then a month of plyos and then a month of conditioning to get them in shape. there is no need for more than one month of conditioning as that is ample time for them to get in shape.

it also depends how conditioned my athletes are depending on the program design.

i have seen athletes increase there vertical jump about 12 inches with me in those months and usually a drop of .1 to .4 in the 40 yard dash.

hope that helps

Thank you for answering..
I have a 24 inch of vertical leap
My intention is to win 16 inches in 6 months, but I think it will be very difficult

with my reccomendations above you may get that sixteen in a year of hard training.

also not everyone has the genetic potential to jump 40 inches, just keep training.

Damn i neva knew how god damn hard it is to get a good vert till i came on this site i mean i have a 18 inch runnin vert im 5'8 which means i need like another 20 inches or so to dunk cleanly right? which will take me a year or hard work with WEIGHTS and all i have is plyos and bodyweight so far so that means like 2 years 2 get those 20 am i right? dan this aint easy.

[a.j.ing]

coz ur vert is low the u will gain some beginner inches that will be easy to get, u can still gain a lot with plyos and bodyweight, or u could do some of the bodyweight exercises with a weight belt or dumbbells. im the same height as u and i think i need lyk 37 inches to dunk, but by the time u have gained a fair bit u will have grown taller anyways.

and in how long will that be??
