Just because the basketball season might be over does not mean that you can stop practicing your regular Basketball Workouts! Offseason conditioning through basketball workouts is going to be the key to bringing your A game next season. Most coaches are going to recommend that you spend a minimum of four hours each week on the court practicing basketball workouts. Additionally, you will need devote another 3-4 hours each week to lifting weights and other strength training exercises. While this might seem like a lot of time to devote to practice in the off season, regularly practicing your basketball workouts will improve your confidence, coordination, strength, and stamina. Coach Tate will teach you the same basketball workouts that professional NBA players use to improve their own skills on the court. If you are looking for basketball workouts that will allow you to improve your jumping skills. Here are several basketball workouts that you may want to try! 1)Deep Knee Bends – Start by standing. Slowly bend your knees while keeping your back straight. Crouch down as low as possible and then slowly rise back up. Do this exercise 15-30 times.
2) Deep Knee Bend Jumps – Start by standing and crouch down as you would with deep knee bends. When you have crouched as low as you can, rocket upwards as hard and as high as you can. Once you have come back down, perform the exercise again and again in rapid succession. Try to perform 15 reps to begin.
3)Toe Raises – To perform these basketball workouts, start by standing normally. Rise up onto the tips of your toes and then lower yourself back down. Do not simply rock forward and backward. Do it slowly and deliberately. Each of these basketball workouts should be performed 30-50 times. If you are looking for still more Basketball Workouts that will improve your jumping skills on the court, then we’ve got some basketball workouts for you to try!
1)Toe Raises With Weights – These basketball workouts are performed just as you would regular toe raises, but you will hold small weights in your hands. 5-10 pound weights are perfect for starting out, and you can increase your weight as you progress.
2)Stomach Crunches – Crunches are a fairly standard exercise that most individuals know how to do. Doing crunches for roughly 20 minutes a day will increase your core strength and allow you to increase the height you can jump.
3)Jumping Rope – Because jumping rope encourages you to leap vertically, it will definitely improve your ability to jump. You can even jump rope while you are watching television. To find other great basketball workouts, make sure to visit the website of Boost Basketball today!
