My Story: I Know How to Dunk a Basketball
I’m going to tell you my story, as I understand that there are loads of you out there who have experienced what I have been through, imagining the day you’d finally have the ability to put down a good, powerful jam on the basketball court.
All that I can tell you is that I was exactly like you very recently. Everything changed nearly 2 years back, which I’ll get to in a moment. Before I begin, allow me to give you a little background info about myself. I’m Blake, I’m 5 foot 9, and I deem myself a quite respectable athlete.
As a kid, basketball was always my number one sport, and I sought nothing further than to discover how to dunk. I would see the slam dunk contest on TV every year, dunk on the Nerf hoop in my room, and if there were any such thing as Youtube back then, I can just about guarantee you that I might have been on it every, seeing highlights left and right.
In any case, I played basketball in high school. I was always a respectable competitor, one of the more skilled ones on my team, but I was constantly trying to dunk the ball, but was unable to. It was a combination of my height and the reality that my quads, hamstrings, and calves (and some additional issues that I’d later learn about) were not muscular enough, and I had no idea how to dunk a basketball.
I eventually gave up on figuring out how to dunk a basketball. It wasn’t the end of the world, however it was somewhat upsetting. Hey, at least I was, on the other hand, a good basketball player.
Long story short, a couple more years went by following high school, and one day I came into contact with an old buddy named James. He was at least two inches shorter than I am, and I saw him dunk right in front of my very eyes. I was incredibly taken aback!
James ended up introducing me to a method that changed the way I jump. I currently understand how to dunk…and I can dunk with flair.
