DeMatha Basketball Competitive Conditioning Drills (2010)

[89tinkerbutt]

Do you believe a High School Varsity should be conditioning in the last week of the season?

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@89tinkerbutt That depends on a variety of factors, can't really give a 'yes' or a 'no.'

[SitkaShootingStar25]

Love how the guys gave 100% no quitters! Inspiring

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@SitkaShootingStar25 Thanks! We have a great group of guys!

[89tinkerbutt]

Coaches under estimate the importance of conditioning

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@89tinkerbutt The smart ones don't :)

[subchen1]

im not sure if this is good but my coach doesn't do any stretching we just go straight into high intensity skills drills and i usually feel so tight and sore as compared to when i stretch on my own basketball practice

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@subchen1 All you can do is make sure YOU prepare properly!

[TimProvise]

Hey Coach.. I just wanted to thank you for passing on these drills.. so inovative and skill based in terms of in game skills

So thanks

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@TimProvise Absolutely my pleasure, thank YOU!

[megawideball]

Sick video!! Always innovative....no stretching??

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@megawideball Yes, they warm-up and did some dynamic flexibility exercises prior to these drills...

[malosidog]

hey coach, I would like to say first and foremost that i really do appreciate all of the videos you put on here.  I love all of the innovative/creative drills and excercises. I am planning on implementing alot of your excercises along with skill drills during this up coming season for my 7th grade girls. It is my 2nd year with them and we really need the strength/conditioning. We have roughly 10-12 learning sessions before games start and im hoping our game shape is alot better than last year

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@malosidog Thanks for your kind words and support, I really appreciate it! Good luck this season and please keep me posted!

[Huupconnection]

Was this their "plyos" work for this particular week or was it something else??

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@Huupconnection No, this was not their plyo workout...

[Iliketobotonrsallday]

Do you know some drills to improve vertical leap?

I am 15, 6'2 and can only dunk 1 handed on a good day.

[eazybreezyxoxo]

whose the guy in the orange shorts?

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@eazybreezyxoxo One of our top guards... he is super fast!

[thenextprototype]

do you have to do conditioning in basketball shoes? cos mine hurt my right foot after lots of running so should i use running shoes? and how much conditioning do you do in season?

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@thenextprototype First and foremost, you need to get your foot checked out by a doctor. Don't let something minor turn into something major. If your conditioning consists of cutting, jumping, and change of direction (which it should)... then yes... I recommend you wear basketball shoes. Running shoes will not provide adequate stability.

[SupraFreak42457]

Please keep doing wat your doing and building ur prestige pretty soon you'll be working out professionals

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@SupraFreak42457 Thanks for your kind words and support. Just an FYI, I already do workout professionals :)

[dj4ladys]

i love your videos.they help me n my teamates out alot

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@dj4ladys Great! I am happy to  help!

[elpli9]

hey is it possible to have your videos without the music? I wanna hear the raw sound of the training

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@elpli9 Thanks for your feedback. Sorry, I prefer to put the videos to music. If you want to hear the "raw sound of training" I suggest YOU go workout :)

[elpli9]

@StrongerTeamDotCom thats like saying if i want to see a movie I should go make one. but fair enough. and oh, i do train, except not everyone's as lucky to have coaches and professionals leading the session. Or a gym.

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@elpli9 I understand what you are saying and appreciate your feedback... I was NOT trying to be a smart-ass before... just making a joke. Check out the "Montrose Basketball Pre-Season Workout" video if you want to hear the sounds of training. All of the other feedback I have been getting says people want the videos set to music. Thanks!

[elpli9]

@StrongerTeamDotCom thats cool, I love your videos, keep them coming! thanks

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@elpli9 Will do, thanks for your support!

[ilovemusic0129]

Thanks Coach Alan Stein

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@ilovemusic0129 My pleasure. Thanks for your support...

[SMARTERTeamTraining]

Looks like the kids are buying in Coach Stein. Keep the clips coming. Thanks for sharing.

[duke2be]

Thanks! Keep the vids coming! Cant wait for the can he dunk series!

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@duke2be Yep, it is going to be AWESOME!

[mikemelise]

Love it!

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@mikemelise Thanks! I appreciate the support!

[duke2be]

Great vid. Just wondering how many reps they did of each exercise/competition?

Thanks

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@duke2be Great question! They did 4 of each "race" (not counting the warm-up). Short, sweet, and INTENSE!

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@duke2be Great question! They did 4 of each "race" (not counting the warm-up). Short but INTENSE!

[nesmith4]

I agree. At our program we found out it works best when you make as many drills as you can competetive. The kids benefit individually and the team benefits as a whole.

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@nesmith4 I agree 100%! Thanks.

[h4d193]

Great vid it's always better to do conditioning when it can be competitive :)

but if you are going to censor the music I would suggest something other that Move B*tch :)

[StrongerTeamDotCom]

@h4d193 Great point :)
