2.  Have you ever seen someone dunk a
basketball like a beast?
 I mean like throw the ball down with authority.
Don't you wish you could do that?
 Well the biggest factors in dunking a
basketball is your height and your athletic
ability
 If you're 5'10 you're going to need a lot more
athletic ability than someone who is 6'8.

3.  With the technology and research we have
done in today's world it is possible for almost
anyone to dunk a basketball with the right
workout routine.
 Of course there are many variables that play a
part in one's ability to dunk but for the most
part anyone can achieve this success. Some
variables can be your weight, your health, and
even the type of shoes you wear.

4.  Most people think that if you're under 6'0 there
is no hope of dunking a basketball but that is
certainly untrue.
 I've personally seen someone who is around 5'8
dunk the ball like a beast. I mean he did a
tomahawk dunk in the middle of a high school
varsity basketball game.
 So height isn't as important as you may think.

5.  So if you want to dunk a basketball you
should first work on building your muscle.
 Staying fit and healthy is very important if you
want to dunk a basketball. Just look at some of
the best dunkers you know. Are they carrying
and excess of weight and eating nothing but
junk food everyday?
 I highly doubt it.

6.  You need to build your core strength, your lower
body strength and your upper body strength.
 Some people think the only muscles that matter
when it comes to jumping is the legs, but that is far
from the truth.
 The core and the upper body play a big part in
your vertical jump so I advise you to spend some
time building your strength in all three of those
areas.
 Simple exercises such as crunches, pull-ups,
squats, lunges, and push-ups are great ways to
build your strength without any equipment except
maybe a pull-up bar.

7.  Next thing you should focus on is your
jumping form and your vertical jump. Are
you a one-foot or a two-foot jumper?
 Figure out which one you're better at and see if
you can grab the rim. If you can grab the rim,
then you know you aren't very far from
dunking. If you can't grab the rim then you
have some work to do.

8.  Once you can grab the rim, your goal should be
to do a one-hand dunk. Most people try to cock
the ball back and do a tomahawk on their first
dunk, but that makes no sense to me.
 You should try to go straight up and put the
ball in.
 Don't try to slam the ball down like Michael
Jordan on your first try, just see if you can get
the ball in.

9.  Once you get down your first dunk, you will
want to do better dunks. You're going to want to
do some nasty dunks. What you will need to do
then is increase your vertical jump.
 You will need to continue to build up your
strength and also add some jumping exercises to
your workout plan. You can do jump ropes,
repetitive jumps as high as you can, and squat
jumps.
 Dunking is a great feeling and if you can jump
higher you can do better dunks so keep working.
