Stop Doing Dynamic Warm Up for Basketball

[@Twist_av_Lemon]

I don't know what hes meaning either, some examples would have been great or this may just have been an exert of a longer video, so really not doing anything to help others.

Thanks for commenting. Did you listen to the full podcast? Here are some ideas and we have plenty more on Basketball Immersion too. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYvRYY2KZ52FjtU

Can you do a podcast on the three weave offense and breakdown drills. I’m new to coaching and have heard it is the new trend in basketball. Rhz

LOL. Better a blog - basketballimmersion.com/why-the-3-man-weave-drill-should-be-replaced/

[@seandey3847]

Chris, I attended a session of yours last summer in Ottawa. Would this be similar to you showing the group your "Michigan motion" and having players walk/job through your offensive or defensive sets? If so this conversation makes more sense to me (I haven't listened to the full episode)

[@BasketballImmersion]

Yes 100%. Slow learning as a warmup as you don't have to warmup decision-making.

[@MarRxK]

I listened to this entire podcast episode. I typically walk away with at least one useful concept from each episode, even if it simply reinforces something I am already doing. However, this episode was an anomaly. There was little of concrete value in what was shared/discussed. I am sure the aim was to promote his paid program but I couldn't wrap my head around how the concepts being promoted are better than a solid dynamic warm-up.

Sorry it didn't connect with you.Thanks for commenting.

[@MattJonesHoops]

Agree with this sentiment - a lot of nothing discussed. I’m okay with taking 5 minutes to prime the body by warming up my players internal body temperature.

[@businessaid2512]

So what are we doing instead?

[@jengiolando4159]

I think he’s saying connect ur warm-ups to what happens in the game and game situations.

[@angelmacedon496]

It is not necessary to choose one approach over the other. There is value in traditional type dynamic warm-ups. We start with 4/5 dynamic warm-up movements then we progress to more basketball like movements. The dynamic warm-ups we do are a part of our injury prevention protocols.

Here is what we do with our U11 team. We play basketball to maximize the number of representative game experiences they get in our practice time together. Thread twitter.com/BBallImmersion/status/1633907188954726403

Coaches should of course do what they are comfortable with, and what they believe in. All we challenge coaches to do is to ask "Is there a better way?" This helps us all continue to move coaching forward with evidence based researched approaches that go beyond just what we have done in the past.

@@BasketballImmersion Trust me. I blew up most traditional basketball development/ training concepts along time ago.

[@retroballer7166]

I'm just not understanding. Playing tag with cold muscles??? Short bursty movements with zero warmup make zero sense I'm sorry. I will stick with a dynamic warmup. I can't think of a single soft tissue injury in 10 years of coaching using a Dynamic style warmup.

[@absorbcontact]

I have a question to you, if you think back to your childhood days: than you playing tag or just run around with you friends, did you do dynamic warmups or stretching before any of those activities!? Probably not, right!?

[@retroballer7166]

@@absorbcontact I hear you but I was not doing strong athletic movements like we do in competitive sports from scratch. First off we probably road our bike or ran to the field so there is your warm up. Plus I was 12 years old. Incidence of injury is less than teens and onwards. I'm only going by what my eyes tell me. Dynamic stretching works

Appreciate the thoughtful discussion. Well done to you both.
