Quote:^ Sure it does, if you can actually squat that amount, then it is guaranteed you can reach the rim. I've even seen someone who could at least squat that weight and dunk a basketball even having a sizeable beer belly Smile

If you're 220 cm tall, you do not need any strenght to dunk. If you're 150 cm, I don't think, you'll be ever able to dunk... Smile

Strenght training is best way to increase your vertical jump. If you play basketball more than 2 times a week, you probably don't need any jump training.

Focus on squats and deadlifts.
