"::training philosophy::
At Power Box Basketball, we built a training philosophy built on the observations of Kevin Eastman (currently an assistant for the Boston Celtics). Eastman believes that there are certain guidelines that must be accomplished in a basketball workout if a player wants to see improvement. These are things that I have my players focus on each day. WHENEVER you are working on your game as a player you must:
* Go faster than game-speed!
* Understand that improvement is a process.
* Eliminate workout killers (fatigue and boredom)
* Have a practice plan. Be prepared!
* Work on conditioning, shooting, and dribbling everyday
* Understand the 'Theory of 2': It will take me 2 minutes to teach a player a skill and it will take the player 2 weeks of everyday concentration on that skill to become comfortable at it. Players, take what your coach teaches you and constantly strive to get better at that one thing.
Most of these things are just mental adjustments. The player who lazily shoots around for two hours gets less accomplished than a player who has this mentality for forty-five minutes! Don't waste your time, be a better player!
