Regular Hoops

“Dunk only” 😤 by @regularhoops Episode 11: Kadour Ziani, Slam Nation Co-Founder and author of “Unlock Mobility - 7 Postures” 💪🏀 I met up with Kadour @veniceball Legend’s Day at 7am (watch Episode 7 to learn about that whole day!) Even though we had just woken up, he immediately started dunking. Keep in mind he is 51 YEARS OLD and only 5’11” 👀 In his prime, Kadour recorded a 56 inch vertical jump. He has also dunked over 30,000 times in his 33 year professional dunking career. His longevity tips were super helpful and shared how they help activate his body. Kadour has the “Dunk or Die” mindset, which is what keeps him going. He rewarded himself with breakfast after dunking and highlighted that he listens to his body by eating organic, fresh food 🥗 His upbringing with 11 brothers and sisters meant he was always learning in the “School of Hard Knocks.” But Kadour only started taking basketball seriously after watching the USA Dream Team in the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona 🥇 He was inspired by Jordan—and was able to exceed Jordan’s jumping ability after dunking from the free throw line AND SIMULTANEOUSLY dunking over a car 🚗 He’s also able to KICK THE RIM. So I asked him what his real secret is, and he took me to an Asian message parlor at the Venice Beach boardwalk haha 😂 Reflecting on his journey, Kodour’s mission is now to pay it forward and help the next generation of dunkers. But he’s also here for the *regular* hoopers—like me and you 🫡 His book walks through 7 ancestral positions modeled after primal animal movements. These exercises can help anyone stay active and mobile. You can support Kadour by buying his book on Amazon! Just search his name on the website/app… Here the link of his 📚 amazon.com/dp/B0BR8D6K5K?ref… What’s your excuse to not dunk now? 🤔
