Hinay hinay lang sa explosive leaping muna. Develop your muscles first and focus on exercises that strengthen your joints.
When I was in college, I could reach the ring (which was surprising considering that I'm only 5'5). Feeling Spud Webb ako non.
In one game I was really pumped and was leaping like never before. On one particularly easy lay up, inisip ko "subukan ko nga kung gaano talaga kataas kaya ko". Upon take off, I felt a sickening snap in my left knee and landed in pain.
Turns out I tore my meniscus, which required very expensive surgery.
Kaya ngayon, dinadaan ko nalang sa gulang, este, diskarte sa court hehehe
