The goal for the competitive basketball workout is a 40 minute workout at a highly intense pace and with correct technique.  If you don’t go hard the entire workout you are wasting a valuable opportunity to improve and your own time. 

Make the workout fundamentally correct and quick moving. Move from one drill to the next. The only time you stop is to record your scores.Rather than just doing basketball drills, each workout is designed to be a 20 game season to add a competitive side to the basketball workouts.

You play 20 games against yourself and keep track of your win/loss record. Before you start, You will set a written goal for yourself for each game. If you fail to reach your goal, or tie your goal, you lose that game. Use our suggested goals for your games or set your own.

You can start at whatever level you want, but once you win 18 games or more at one level, you move to the next higher level.The five scoring levels are Middle School, Junior Varsity, Varsity, Championship Varsity, and D1. For example, if the player wins 18 of the 20 games at the Junior Varsity level, s/he must increase the level the next workout to reflect the new level.

The names of the levels are merely that, names. If someone achieves a level, that does not indicate that he or she is ready for competition at that level. There are many other factors that determine whether or not a player can compete at a given level.

Prior to starting the first of your twenty game workout, Warm up and stretch your mind and body. You also need to warm up your hands and improve your dribbling skills with One Basketball Stationary Ball Drills or Two Basketball Stationary Ball Drills.

After you complete each numbered stage, shoot a One and One Free Throw--just like a game--you make the first shot, you earn the second shot--while you are tired. To win the one and one free throw game, you must make both free throws.

    The final part of each workout is the evaluation. Measure and evaluate how you did against your previous performances. Write down what you can improve on tomorrow and how you are going to do it. Have a plan and a purpose.
