Im training outside everydays, but sometimes that's hurt. Because when I miss a shot, the ball goes like 1km away from the court and when is hot weather and I most go from ball running that's make me humble 😂

Even tho I’m out the game, that first tip is a gem, especially knowing what I know now. High consistency in focusing on problem areas is definitely a cheat code, wish I even knew that was an option back then lol I’d just emphasize certain things during workouts but it’d be more effective to have most of the workout centered around just those two things

So your saying If I’m doing free throws and I’m getting 3/10 everytime, I should just keep doing more?

Thanks for the tips.

This is a great topic and often overlooked! I’d add trying to make the workout the most efficient possible. This would include have your workout planned before you go to the court. This will hopefully prevent dilly-dallying trying to decide what skill to work on. Also giving structure and focus. In respect to pushing oneself, utilizing your mind to imagine a defender can help you push yourself to speeds and discomfort that can mimic the intensity of a game.

Also when you wanna train by yourself and you play around an 1hr make sure that the 30minutes of it is something new. Because when you play pickup you always encounter something new that you can add to your game it may be a small thing but it can be handy when needed. So when you play by yourself its just your thoughts but when your with someone both of you have different approach to the game and you can learn from them and add it to your bag. So when you play by yourself try doing something different or something out of the box or out of your comfort zones, cuz in real games its very hard to get to your own pace and comfort because sometimes the defense controls you intsead of vice versa. Or vice versa when ur the one playing D

In the paint I mostly work on reps of hooks, drop steps and fake into step thrus, then add a dummy and do variations at higher speeds plus counter moves to know how to react. I make reps until I make 6 in a row then move on, finish off with Mikans and FTs. So after that I could add drive variations from the 3 plus some mid range shots and keep at it.

For shooting, what is an optimal "range" of make % to be considered sufficiently challenging? I think we can agree that if you're shooting 80% on spot-up 3s, you can probably move onto dribble or off-the-catch variations. I think we can also agree that if you're shooting 10% on spot-ups, moving into other variations probably isn't going to be improving your overall shot-making ability. Off and on days are normal, but what's the threshold you would say it's acceptable to move on to try a harder variation?

@tjltraining

Жыл бұрын

everyone is a different level shooter so Is no one certain percentage, each player will be different, like you said if someone is making 8/10 for a drill is probably too easy, each player can handle different levels of difficulty while still keeping motivation, just constantly aim for just outside what you are capable of

@totleariss

Жыл бұрын

@@tjltraining If motivation is not a factor, then in your opinion do you think there's no such thing as "you should be able to make x/10 before moving on to the harder variation"? I realize this is quite a nuanced point, as even if someone is chucking 3s outside of their range, eventually they'll start knocking them down as they get stronger and build coordination. But from an efficiency standpoint, I was wondering if you had a POV on this as you've progressed and helped others.

@PTrey

Жыл бұрын

Not a trainer, but I think 60-70% (consistently) is usually sufficient to consider trying a more difficult variation (although the current variation is still helpful). I think more important than your make % at the current level is your make % at the next level, which you don't know until you try it. I've heard from a couple of trainers that 60%-80% is the "goldilocks zone" for the right amount of challenge for most people, so my goal is usually 3/5, 5/8, 6/10, etc. If you have a decent shot at that goal I think that particular level of difficulty is helpful in some way. If you're way off, then regress to an easier variation to calibrate your shot and build more psychological momentum before trying that level again.

Hey coach, I’m 5’8 trying to be a point guard but I’m struggling a lot with shooting, I’m good at layups and pushing but I struggle with aim overall, I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong but it’s probably how I throw the ball and my jump shot

@hristojimenez3243

Жыл бұрын

You could focus on your game in the things that you're actually using but you have to know that if you get better in other aspects of your game, you're increasing your chances to be a more all around player, I don't mean like you have to work your handles like Kyrie, but if you can shoot and create space to shoot or go to the basket you're increasing the possibilities to get more points. And, you can focus on workouts for pivots and end the workout with an easy shooting session (it doesn't have to be too much complicated), what you want is to develop, and an easy shooting drills will help you to work on it at the same time you're working on your strengths

I’m a 5’9 pg, and I feel like my finishing and mid-range are quite good, but my shooting doesn’t translate well to the 3pt, is there any way to fix this? I hear the term “just put more reps up” but I just can’t seem to get better at shooting from deep like that.

yes it certainly is. Big thing is to learn to breathe primarily through your nose and belly breathe as opposed to breathing with your chest.

so I'm a 6,4 guard and i notice I'm really good on mid-range shooting by myself but i struggle with 3 pointers and shooting the ball in actual games. idk if I'm not just confident enough or what, but I just need better ball handling and confidence when playing with a team but that's hard when I'm mainly working out by myself, what would you recommend to improve on this?
