2014 Summer Basketball Conditioning

2014 Summer Basketball Conditioning

Hello Basketball Team,

Question for everyone, Should Basketball Players Lift Weights?

As a strength coach I am a big believer in getting our team to lift weights in the off-season. We will train very hard in the weight room during the season. I believe that the stronger the player, the more aggressive he will play. Strong basketball players tend to attack the basket more, rebound more, and play tougher on defense. Our basketball strength & conditioning program is designed to help prevent athletic injuries, and produce a strong, lean, and flexible basketball player. The strength & conditioning workout is safe, comprehensive, and very challenging for basketball players... weight room work will paid huge dividends for each individual player on court. The importance of coming into the season in the best shape possible is at the utmost priority. By coming into a season out of shape you are already behind your competition that has been training for the whole off-season. This is what separates the good players from the mediocre ones. Championship teams and players come into the season in shape and only improve from then on. The following program will help you get into shape for the season and with a little luck will keep you injury free. Remember you do not help the team if you are on the sidelines nursing an injury that could have been prevented. Enjoy the program and enjoy your upcoming basketball season.

Good Luck and Have Fun,

Coach McCormick Head Strength & Conditioning Coach
