Why White Men Can’t Jump? Is It Have Anything To Do With Genetics?

When the movie “White men can’t jump” came out in the 90′s, it had became one of my all time favorite basketball movie of all time. I have watch this movie over, over, over, and over again and still don’t get bored. Since this movie, it has always made me think, is it true? Can white men jump and dunk a basketball or just the black men do it? As you can see in the NBA or any Streetball games, most of the black dudes can do all types of dunks and tricks while the white men rarely do it.
When in America, race has been a big issues among Blacks, Whites, Hispanics, or Asians, so let’s not make this issue about race and let’s it be about basketball.
As research shows, most black athletes with West African ascendent have the most explosive muscle fiber. For this reason, they can jump higher and run faster than any other East African ascendents. While East African athletes all dominate the long distance running, West African ascendents do the best in the 100 or 200 meters run. So to jump higher in sports, it has something to do with your genetics.
However, when you say White Men Can’t Jump, is it a completely true statement or just bias opinion base on race and other issues? I played basketball and I’ve seen lots of white men and jump really high and dunk the basketball. Back in the days you may not see much or maybe none, but in recent years, I’ve seen many impressive dunks done by a White men and sometimes he doesn’t have to be tall like Shawn Bradley.
The most recent video I’ve seen is a dude name Jacob Tucker who is a 5’10” guard but can jump really high. He has a vertical of almost 50 inches which is very impressive if you ask me. He can do a 360 with the ball between his leg and all that. Does this prove that White men can or can’t dunk? I think so.
I think the most obvious problem with dunking a basketball is something you must thrive for not just born with it. Most of the black athletes you saw put countless hours of work and pain in before they can show off their skills. I met my roommate back in college who is black and love to smoke the joint every single day. He can’t even tough the basket despite he is 6’3”. Why? Because he never work out or doing anything accept smoking the buds…
The problem here is dedication and hard work. No matter the race you are, Blacks, Whites, or Asians, you can train enough to jump high enough and dunk a basketball. I’ve seen a little Asian guy dunk and I can’t believe with my own eyes. Anything is possible.

"What I was most surprised about the training program was how little time it took each day to get those kind of results. 2 weeks after doing the training I was jumping higher. I was quicker and dunking easily. My training will never be the same and I would recommend without hesitation to all my team mates. Thanks again." - Stephen W, Canada
"I'm 19 years old and i've been playing basketball all my life. When I was eighteen I reached a plateau on my vertical jump, no matter how much I trained or all the exercises my coaches gave me, I couldnt go an inch higher. I was stuck at a 32 inch vertical. After reading your program and doing the exercises for just two weeks I've increased my jump 5" already, your approach to vertical jump training has already given me a great advantage and I hope it will continue doing the same.
"Hey i just wanted to say thanks for your program its helped alot I've gained 7 inches in my vertical and 5 in my first month and i dunked for the first time. and now i can grab the rim the two hands i just need a couple more inches to dunk consistently. your program has been great thanks. ." - Coleman
