How to Stop Letting Contact Faze You as a Hooper!

Basketball is a contact sport... so we might as well prepare for it. And being in the Philippines (maybe the most physical basketball out there 😅) this is a fitting time to work on this! Check out this workout/teaching, and apply some of it to see some big improvements here.

He’s in the Philippines! Lesgooo 🇵🇭

[@kingexclusivo]

thanks for this. I’m 6’3 and pretty athletic but very skinny/light. I’m so good when avoiding physicality but as soon as i get any contact Im not able to do much

[@leesiboy3039]

Maybe keep your center of mass low everytime. And you need to lift weights and be stronger.

[@yowhat-mo6xo]

I’m 6ft 1in and 170 pretty skinny. But go slower when driving to handle the contact.

[@tazzari14]

I was just asking about this during the camp! Glad a video came out so I'll always be reminded of these great pointers

[@palitoooooo]

You inspire me! The future of training!

Hey Cole thank you for the vid been watching you for some time and you really hepled me

[@jsnparc619]

this is amazing. Thank you for visiting our country. 🔥🔥🔥 And thanks for helping me out in my game. As an undersized guard at 5'5, your attention to details vids helped me so much. (JJ Redick and Klay Thompson vids) Now with my value as a shooter, I am always invited to hoop in our place even at my height. Again , thank you and more power to your channel.

Simply the best coach

I learned to play through contact when I was in the Philippines. There’s no such thing as an easy lay there 😂

[@AshleighMacalingay]

welcome to ph sirrr!🤝🇵🇭

[@mikecain2584]

Hey love the videos. Learning a ton. So I’m in Japan and they have almost no outdoor courts for pickup. How do you build courts overseas??? Would love to hear more

[@leesiboy3039]

100% true we Filipinos play very physical basketball. It's like 80% basketball + 20% MMA. 🤣🤣

[@julianbartley7766]

Wow I love that mentality still tho fo realz like hooly lol 😂.

[@edoero9729]

Hey Cole I have to ask man. Those Nets Just Don shorts look fire. Should you go with regular size? Because I usually wear a size L for my shorts.

[@shawnmurphy4830]

thats one of my problems. I can get downhill and i love contact, but its the speed part. im often too fast and a lil outta control. then when im thinkin the game im like murf all you gotta do is slow down but still be fast enough. its wild 😭

[@ry_an.]

im in the same boat. its all about your technique

[@melanielafont4700]

Could you do a attention to detail about hot sauce (Philip champion) and god shammgod (the player)?

[@landofitts]

Gem 💎

[@rotempeled9705]

[@D1PR0SP3CT]

[@UnlikelyMJ]

Come to Haiti man

[@velexybtw5200]

I’m a 6th grader can you please show vid breaking down moves for Aau I’m trying to be ranked I will do anything I practice everyday and actually work on things please

[@cameronwells7721]

I would say work less on specific moves and more on training qualities to score and gain advantages. First step quickness, finishing with contact, floaters, dribbling under pressure etc.

[@xdgamerdxdx]

Just get good at defense, shooting, playmaking and dribbling thats like what you need

[@Shadowbane7]

it's faze/unfazed. common mistake.

[@leshine5973]

dude philippine ball (especially 3x3 in the most southern part of the philippines "mindanao") is very physical, if u dont know how to handle physicality here u can never survive pick ups here

[@Thmcmoney]

Can you do a shaquille o' neal attention to detail?

[@thejester2085]

why were kids training to slap each other on that last part tho, hahaha

[@mysteryfollowedbylogic]

bro is out here playing barefoot

[@ByAnyMeansBasketball]

Philippines for you
