At your present age, the weight corresponding to 179 cm should be around 140, and 150 is also within the normal range. I don't know what kind of body shape you belong to, but if the fat in some parts is obvious at first glance, it is necessary to lose weight through exercise.
Men start from 18 years old and basically enter the stage of strength growth, that is, the effect of muscle growth will be better and faster. At this time, the weight will generally increase significantly. So controlling weight is more important than simply losing weight. In other words, what you should do now is to reduce the body fat and grow the long muscles. If you need to consciously improve jumping, you can consider focusing on exercising lower limb strength and promoting muscle growth responsible for jumping function. In this way, maybe after one or two years, your weight will stabilize between 140 and 150, and your height will increase a little. It is expected to exceed 180. No problem. Then it is easy to increase the absolute value of your bounce by 5 to 10 cm.
Remind you to master strength exercises and weight-loss exercises, or you will gain weight while losing weight-high muscle density, which may look thin on the outside, but it may actually gain weight. This is not conducive to the improvement of bounce. Therefore, as long as your appearance is thin and your weight has not changed, your bounce will increase by about 5 cm due to the increase of lower limb strength.
Second, excessive weight loss will affect your bouncing effect. First of all, underweight will lead to insufficient body fat content and physical reserve, which will affect the frequency and intensity of repeated take-off. Second, being too light will inhibit your bouncing effect-if you are too thin to play basketball, you may not be able to take off calmly or your bouncing ability will be weakened by the physical strength of your heavier opponent.
Finally, I suggest that according to your age and height trend, your weight should be controlled between 145 and 155 before you are 20 years old. If you are engaged in professional basketball such as the school team or preparing for the college entrance examination, your weight should be slightly heavier-of course, it is the gain of muscle type. After all, for playing basketball, the role of jumping ability is limited-if playing volleyball, the ratio of jumping ability is much more important. So reduce fat and improve strength (the strength of upper limbs is no less than that of lower limbs to some extent), then your relative jumping ability will be obviously enhanced.
By the way, I'll tell you one thing: I danced very well at that time, and the run-up touched the basket. However, I have almost no advantage in the basket, and I often can't grab a bigger rebound than my smaller one. Therefore, I am better at playing volleyball. Without physical confrontation, high jumping ability is an absolute advantage. At that time, when my height was 173 and my weight was 120, my bounce was less 10 cm than when my weight was 174. The weight has increased and the bounce has also increased. Why? Strength exercises have worked. And what is the reason why I can't beat a person who touches 3 meters high but touches 2.9 meters high? I suffered a loss in the strength confrontation, and people squeezed me with one arm, and my absolute jumping ability can only play 60%.
