Last night I had a workout with my guy Tyler Perkins from Villanova. He's one of the best shooter's we work with The workout was simple: he had to make "3-in-a-rows" from various on the move, off the dribble, and catch and shoot 3s If he made 3 in a row, he got a win. Every time he didn't make 3 in a row, he got a loss It was first to 25 wins. He ended up losing 25-24 His focus was through the roof. The intensity and enjoyment of the workout was great Just a simple "gamifying" of the drill made it 10x better How do you gamify your workouts?

Over the past 5 weeks, My team and I have worked with 30+ High-Level High School, College, and NBA players. I've been fascinated by each player's individual constraints. It's been such a cool process dissecting each player's shot and helping guide them towards solutions. Through this process, we've identified 5 "non-negotiables" that regardless of variability, differential learning, and adaptability, if these 5 are constant, the basketball has a great chance of going in! 1. Hand placement (Shooting hand in the middle of the basketball) 2. Straight ball path (Up the body from the '1' Position, not swinging right or left) 3. Proper sequencing under the basketball as it stabilizes at the '2' position (body attaches under the ball when the 2 position is formed) 4. Straight Follow Through with pointer finger to the floor 5. Wide and Balanced Landing, shoulders forward on tippy toes What are your thoughts? Am I missing any? Do you know any GREAT shooter without these 5?

This one really touched my heart as a trainer! From fear to faith dribbling and being confident in it! 🏀

I am currently developing my training structure for the next 9 weeks. Any insights on how to break that down for each week? Week 1-3 shooting and then go from there? Also having groups of 2-4 kids, how should I navigate doing what they want to work on especially if they aren't all aligned on wanting to work those skills.

My next step for my training business is to secure a consistent gym space in my area. I live in a smaller community with not a lot of gym spaces (No YMCA's or public gyms available unfortunately). Any tips or advice on finding a space but also securing one would be much appreciated!!
