Extremely convinient as i was legit researching exercises all day for this.

Great video for athletes, hell even highschool kids that want to be more powerful on their first step. #AnyMeansBasketball

[@dannyl2755]

LeBeautiful I think the fan base is mainly high school players

[@myjciskate4]

It's essentially all mid to low level high school players. College players and high level high school players already should know this.

[@samrathrandhawa2933]

Can you make a video about contact you can put on offensive players that is legal? I appreciate your guy’s work.

[@samrathrandhawa2933]

And contact on defensive players

[@Lsoxx95]

so you wanna learn the push offs and hooks eh??

[@tupacshakur5308]

good idea

[@samrathrandhawa2933]

John Johnnyson yeah but there are many other subtle ways to place contact to gain an advantage. A lot of us don’t even see it. Do I wonder if by and means can find some ways.

[@pluutoes5148]

Samrath Randhawa just foul

[@aroma4728]

I use to have an amazing first step, but after not playing basketball for literally 1 day, I can’t blow past my defenders now. This video will definitely help me.

[@SDSOverfiend]

Damn.... I never needed most of these workout because as a kid Playing Tag, BOMBS AWAY, Super Suicide, football etc. Worked all the muscles in your body. It was when I got older I needed these drills to maintain it. I played against dudes who had crazy first steps without all the work outs who seemed like they had it naturally. Today's kids are sheltered YMCA ballers who believe skills can be obtained thru mimicry and not practice and working out this why if you look closely.. Dudes don't have first steps.. They just have defenders who are scared to get crossed. Great video and analysis

[@armandoserrano5104]

SDS Overfiend I agree 110% where you say people dont stick any D, because their scared to get crossed. #Truth

[@SDSOverfiend]

Armando Serrano Exactly.. Rule of the thumb. If your defender Is flatfooted.. You go. Dudes Is practically letting guys go by

[@SDSOverfiend]

Kodak Cuttin Up 😂😂 I remember the first time I got crossed.. Then the first and last time I got dropped lol. Never lost confidence in my defense.. Shit made me work harder to understand the nuances

[@fkasample1543]

This content is absolutely amazing, well done. It builds on clear, concise, basic fundamental mechanics. There's no more rapid path to mastery than logical progression.

[@victorzamudio1427]

Crazy i been trying to figure this out for like 2 weeks already and they just made it more clear with the 2nd step

Thanks for this. I tried it out today and it really helped focus on some of the core mechanics. Much appreciated.

[@2MuchSwag4Funzies]

Man i have been waiting for the day you come out with audio-visual commentary and I knew it was gonna be so efficient. Please do this more, your channel would definitely grow exponentially. Quality stuff as always my friend.

[@PyroInferno110]

I have a great first step, that's one of my talents my coach told me (he was really talking about my speed), but this is definitely a great tutorial. I think this might actually help me make better use of my first step.

[@skylerallen3952]

Is this the first video you've commentated over? Love your stuff man! How long have you been going to school for it? Human kinetics I'm guessing?

[@alvaros5156]

Yo were i cand send my questions. Either way my question is that if you can be too flexible, i can tiuch my toes with my forearm, and for exmple when trying to accelerate you usually see people with their heels up but dorsiflexed but my heel goes first just because how much my tendon can flex, and the same happens with the jumpshot, i always plant heel first even in a situation like you put with jimmy butler, because my tendons and muscles are too elastic. I feel a little like fluffy and im not very athletic. Is this habit (planting first ball of foot and nkt heel) that you have you develop or something that you have or dont have
