In order to reduce the risk of injury and increase the performance potential of your athletes, it is recommended that today's athletes participate in a year round strength and conditioning program. Coach Taylor takes you through some exercises that have been successful with athletes from the amateur to the professional ranks. Taylor begins with a body weight warm-up in order to increase the range of motion throughout the body. He then progresses to core training exercises including a band stretch program and ankle strengthening program, advanced overloads that can be used when strength training, a jump rope workout, basketball handling drills, and a myofascial release program utilizing a foam roller. In addition, Taylor shares a series of six on-court drills that are custom tailored to improve basketball specific skills within your athletic program.
