You will do these for the next 8 weeks adding reps or moving
up levels of difficult as you get stronger. We will add speed, agility,
conditioning and balance exercises in the summer.
You
will do a different set of exercises each day alternating between upper
body / core day and leg day. EVERYDAY you will shoot with out a ball.
At least three days a week you will do a 5 minute stationary dribbling
routine.
If you do legs and then have to skip a day because of school, illness or other activities, do upper body / core next.

go more than 3 days in a row with out a work out. Take one rest day
each week. You can do your ball-less shooting and dribbling on rest
days.
