One on One
Master Don Juan
I'm 6'2" and dunk a ball two-handed...I'm guessing my vert is about 35".
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
I think you are mistaken, dawg. Do the math...my standing reach is 8'1". To dunk cleanly you need to be at least 8" over the rim and about 10" for two-handed dunks. I can throw down reverses and some other rotation ****, but not 360. If you don't believe you have to be at least 8" over the rim to dunk, go to the gym and throw down a bunch of hard one-handed tomahawks in succession, then look at the red rim mark on your forearm and measure. It will be at least 8" from your fingertips.Originally posted by mikel
If it was 35' you could do alot more than slam it with 2 hands. I went to a College Combine for football, and they had a thing where you smack the hinged markers around jumping off 2 feet. They would subtract that from your reach. And get your vertical. Mine was 34 inchs, I'm 6-4' and can pull off almost any dunk except inbetween the legs.
Almost anyone with average sized arms over 6 foot can dunk with a 28 inch vertical.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
I still think you're wrong man. You can't get a good, clean dunk if only half your hand is above the rim. You certaintly wouldn't be trying dunks in games if that's all you got over the rim. Also, MJ and Nique had verts of 46" to 48" in their primes. I imagine Lebron is about 42". Take a look at the following:Originally posted by mikel
Wrong man, When I was a sophmore and played on the basketball team. I was around 6'2 and had recorded my vert at around 28 and a half inchs and I could dunk it easily even in games. All you have to do to "dunk" it is get about half your hand or just your fingers over the rim thats how Shaq slams and you dont have to have huge palming hands to do it. Because if you notice when you slam it's just the fingers that connect with the rim instead of slamming your wrist up on it. A two handed dunk doesn't take much more than single handed dunk. Dominique Wilkins and Jordan only had around a 39-40 inch verticals. Hell Lebron only has a 38 inch vert and his head is soreing above the rim. Of course he is around 6'7.
They have a machine that calculates how high you can jump. Its a little poll with notchs you smack around all being half an inch apart.
