Here are four drills that I
think would be good additions to any basketball players Strength and
Conditioning Program. I am planning
on using them with the Smith College Womens Basketball team this year. In developing their program I thought a
lot about what exactly is it that I am preparing them to do and simply play the
game was what I kept coming back to.
Prehab, soft tissue work, conditioning, strength, power, mobility, and
so on are components of a solid strength and conditioning program and to that
whole package I have added some very specific drills for basketball players. Generally, I am a sports generalist (no
pun intended) but specificity has its place and pre-season is it. Which is upon us now for all the
Strength and Conditioning Coaches preparing pre-season workouts for basketball
teams.
