I am 6'...probably a bit less these days. I used to dunk a girls ball with a little air out of it like a mofo...reverses and shit. But that was 15 years ago. Right now I cant touch the rim. I do have a plan though. Losing 20 more lbs..squats and repetitive jumping on stuff.
At least I will suffer before I owe.
If I pull it off. ..I will put up a video.

good thing about calves, you can work them a few days a week ... i work calves on leg day, but also superset them a few times a week while working back or shoulders... just move from one back/shoulder set to your 2-3 favorite calf machines and never really rest (1set back, 1 set calves.. changing the calve machine with the next exercise... fuck you know what im talking about)... it helps keep the heart rate high too and helps burn a few calories 
will be jumping through the roof soon

What about some explosive type training Ray? I think you need to work on some anaerobic exercise for your legs house.
I found this.

I think I will challenge myself to try to do this by my birthday in November or by Christmas
I don't want to know how far away I am now, but i'm sure it would be discouraging
might be impossible

jump training in the sand can work wonders, you'd be surprised. easier on the knees as well. water is even better. i played ball with a few dudes who used to train in quicksand but they all just kinda disappeared one day.

It has begun.
I read about half of the guide to jumping higher posted on Bbuilding.com
Lot of reading. Something about force and velocity and power and shit like that.
Depth jumps something ruther. Stored energy and stuff.
Got 8 boxes jumped on top...jumped off and landed without heels touching ground then exploded up instantly as high as I could jump.
Sets of like 15...7 or 8 sets. Not looking for higher reps...need to build to higher boxes. We got some sort of squat rack. 135 25 times as fast as I could....4 times....275 sets of 12....3 times...Squat rack probably means a lot less then those numbers biut that aint important..
Nine boxes next week and 315 on the rack...need to get over the initial cant walk the next day after leg thing.
I try.
