Answer 2

do NOT USE ANKLE WEIGHTS ????@@! !! ! ! !why add weight to your ankles.

you cant just gain a 2 to 3 inch vertical.

you need to work on the legs, doing a specific exercise for a set amount of time.
then you need to give about 5 days rest for the muscles to strenghten. I was dunking after 4 months of working out in strength shoes. i was dunking the day after i used them, it took about 4 days after i stopped working out.

If you need to jump higher, you need to lose weight. at least with this short amount of time.
