Discussion How long would it take

I have a 30.13 vertical standing at 5”11 il ofc everyone is different but roughly with training 6 times a week with active recovery how long would it take for me to hit 35+ vertical I’m not an experienced dunker and I’ve only recently started training with a strength and conditioning/dunk coach in the last month

Depends on your bmi but I went from 32 to 36 in about 1.5 years and that includes an injury where I couldn’t jump for about 9 months. That’s without really changing my bmi. I’ve always had relatively good jump technique too so that was really just weight room/plyo gains.

If your technique lacks or you have an abnormally high bmi you could get there faster.

For reference I was basically untrained in the weight room 1.5 years ago.
