The Off-Season is a critical time for developing strength, power and becoming a better athlete.  Typically basketball athletes have used football off-season templates to prepare them for their upcoming seasons.  This is a flawed approach as both types of athletes have a number of differences that should be reflected in their training.  This video series is the ultimate resource on how to develop a strength training plan for your entire off-season specifically for basketball players that is currently used by Division I and professional basketball players.  Coach B lays out his entire program from the beginning to the end and shows a number of progressions that can be used in any program:

  1. Learn how to warm-up properly
  1. Learn how to make your core training more effective
  2. Learn a number of mobility progressions to reduce the chance of injury
  3. Learn how to properly progress plyometrics to maximize their effectiveness
  4. Learn how to properly organize speed, conditioning and strength training to maximize results.
  5. Learn why the traditional squat may not be great for basketball players and which exercises to choose to develop lower body strength.
  6. Learn how to increase your exercise menu – there are a number of different exercises used to develop balanced functional strength, power, and reduce the chance of injury.

 

This video series is for any serious basketball coach, strength coach, trainer or basketball athlete looking to improve their strength for their upcoming season.
