Basketball

hey everyone i was wondering if u guys can leave any basketball tips because i just started out and i really stink =/ and i love it. Its so fun even though i cant play it well. any help?

this is a very general question...i love it too and wish i could play...well all you need to do is get a ball and go out and play with it...practice your dribbling and shooting...with your shooting don't practice 3 point shots as you've gotta crawl before you can walk so start from close in and try some lay ups, and little lay ins off the back borad trying to get the angles right

Try working on Vertical leap, and try working on short sprints as well, as you might be able to better train the Fast Twitch Muscle Fibres that way, which you need for things like accelleration across the court, and Vertical leaps.

Even basic leap stuff, like focusing on a point of a wall, and trying to see if you can get your Finger tips ot touch it. Satrt low, work up. Tatty walls might be best, as you might find focus points, like a small crack, or a weed, or a bit of moss.

Could be things to consider.

before you can put out foece (jump) you need to be able absorb and produce it so for training just get stronger

Work on your foot work, and defensive body positions first. Learn how to rebound and play defense, set picks ( the basics of the game of course)

Then the skills of ball handling, and shooting will come in time.

If you are trying to be better at the YMCA, local gym, or with some church group. This is what you will need to do to have more fun, and become more competitive and helpful to your team mates.

Basketball is a team sport and all the things I listed are of great value and do not require you to be a superstar in order to help your team win.

to jump higher squats and calf raises both with and without weight and also a trampoline the way to get better at jumping is jumping also alot of cardio cause uwant ur goal to b the best and most fit on the court so no one has an edge on u keep ya head up and shoot for the stars peace
