Pro Basketball Trainer Reacts To Social Media Drills

[@xdgamerdxdx]

I've just been working on my fundementals both on court and in the weight room, I see these social media drills all the time but I just stick to the more fundemental and not as flashy things

[@tjltraining]

but what does "the fundamentals" consist of. if thats stationary dribbling, spot shooting and jump moves at cones you'll have a tough time seeing results

[@xdgamerdxdx]

@@tjltraining no its catch and shoot with defenders etc etc, game like workouts. But I dont do any flashy drills from instagram is what I meant

[@EijiD]

​@@tjltrainingbro, just a question, what do you prefer, should you train with a skills coach or watch his tutorials and train by yourself?

[@tjltraining]

@@EijiD both. 99% of people can't train everyday with a trainer, but maybe 1-2 times a week and then on your own the other days

Hi, 2 questions, how can you get a good amount of shooting reps on your own and how long should you train for when you train/workout?

[@tjltraining]

You get a good amount of shots up by going hard for an hour straight and getting quality shots not just a high volume. Ideally two seperate 60 minute basketball workouts a day is sufficient

@tjltraining thank you for replying ! That's really helpful information thank you

[@jake12jamiefox78]

can you give me constructive criticism on how u workout? i’m 14 and the things i struggled my 8th grade season were ball handling and shooting on Monday, Wednesday, Friday. i get form shots up and midrange with threes at the end. i’m not focusing on working on shots i would take in game because i need to get my form ready first. i will explain more in the reply

[@jake12jamiefox78]

on Tuesday, Thursday n Saturday i work on finishing and ball handling 6:00-8:00 doing overhand, under hand and scoop finishes with both hands so i can build the fundamentals first then once i got them down move on to finishes i want to add.

[@jake12jamiefox78]

for my ball handling i start off stationary and i work on keeping my chest and eyes up while dribbling both hands. then i move on to freestyle dribbling and changing my pace.

2 quick questions(not quick btw) i saw your short video about should i do game like drills or non game like so i dont what to do bc i dont understand if i should keep doing what im doing or change it Question 2 is my friend thinks skill workouts are better than 1v1 or small sided games so we usually end up doing our skill workouts and then after we do some closeout shooting or a finishing SSG then finish with 3 dribble 1v1 is this a good structure?

[@tjltraining]

SSG and live drills IS skill work.. you are better off adding a live component to most of the stuff you are doing and just doing 1v1 3 dribbles at 5 spots is not the most effective way to play1s, I have videos on my channel on better ways to play one v one

5:07 the Steph Curry wake up routine 😂

[@bloob1223]

Bro every time i play my friend i literally cant get by him i tried change of pace and whenever i drive i end up going away from the hoop so instead i try to bump him but he steals it everytime i try to bump him so everytime i do get by with pure speed i get blocked like what do i do

[@tjltraining]

You are most likely very predictable as a ball handling and cant effectively read him, which is why more 1v1 is important to improve your decision making

[@GameBasedTraining]

Didn’t know anything about the right foot not being the pivot foot and I played pro😅😂

[@tjltraining]

Wild lol😂😂
