While everyone knows that plyometrics are a necessary part of being a good basketball player… Many people don’t know HOW to use them! This can lead to doing not enough, or in most cases, too much. This often ends in overuse injuries and then no more basketball, which was the whole point. Instead of that whole nightmare follow this simple layout for plyo’s! Start with pogo hops. An easy way to include them is to do them as a warmup before pickup. Second is bounds. These help your first step speed and acceleration. Lastly you NEED skater squats. Basketball requires a lot of lateral movement. It’s often ignored in training programs leading to athletic players who can’t slide their feet or crossover nearly as effectively as they look like they could. Try these plyo’s and let me know what you think! Video: https://youtube.com/shorts/YIscrLk9yP4?si=FBZjg5-XMZSTio4a

Every short guard needs this shot! Being shorter than most of the competition means you have to play smarter. Crafty moves and quick thinking are your best friend. Getting blocked can be one of the worst feelings as a hooper. That’s why you need to master the hook shot! It allows you to lay the ball up right over a defender no matter their height. It’s virtually unguardable… the only factor is can you make the shot. Add this move to your bag! https://youtube.com/shorts/_p3cJzeMdCk?si=4j8mtPTEP6NzsTn-
