I’m going to be a freshman in high school this year, and it’s my first year of being on a real basketball team. I’m not in the best shape because I had surgery on my ankle in May, and haven’t been able to do much. So I need some drills I can do to improve my dribbling,shooting,and guarding. And some drills to run to lose a little weight wouldn’t hurt much either.
Jumping is a key aspect of basketball. Some of the very first basketball fundamental drills involve learning to elevate. It is critical in so many aspects of the game, from shooting where good elevation leads to stronger consistency as the upper body does not have to strain to get the power needed, to rebounding and defense. The ability to get good vertical leap is a science in and of itself.
Jacob Hiller’s Jump Manual is no doubt the most comprehensive Vertical Jump Training Program you can find on the market today. This program has already helped thousands of athletes, basketball players and dancers to increase their vertical leaps to the desired height which will enable them to be more competitive.
Though this program is so popular, there are many people who don’t yet know about it, and don’t yet know how much it cost. Jacob charges $67 for the jump manual. This includes the Jump Manual Guide, and personal caching for one full month. This personal coaching is done though emails. You also get access to the forum of elite jumpers where you will find other people who are also used the jump manual to increase their vertical jumps. It is important to note here that Jacob is always in this forum to help answer questions from those who may need some help using his program.
Athletes who feel the need for continuing the emails coaching after the one month period is over can do so at a very modest monthly fee. This in itself is a very good thing about the jump manual program since the success of every athlete greatly depends on the personal guides he or she receives from the coach, in this case Jacob Hiller.
If you want to increase your vertical jump, then the jump manual is the best guide which can help you do this. The jump manual is reasonably priced at $67, especially when you consider the quality and the effectiveness of this product.

As important as it is to work with your child or players on shooting drills for basketball, it is just as important to make sure they are doing it right. One of the most important skills your as a coach can develop is the ability to spot what is wrong with a shot. You can have the best drills in the world but if the player is repeating those drills over and over with poor form, all that is being done is the reinforcement of that poor form. The old expression that practice doesn’t make perfect, perfect practice makes perfect is very true for shooting drills.
Well the summer is over. The summer leagues are finished, and the school and recreational programs are a few months away. Now is the time to work on the fundamentals. Whether your child has just become old enough to join their first local basketball league or is gearing up for their senior year of high school, this is a great opportunity to learn or refresh their fundamental basketball skills. Work on refreshing or learning the mechanics of a consistent, accurate shot, with some basketball shooting drills geared to the form. work on dribbling drills to add to their comfort and control of the basketball. Go back to the fundamentals with these drills. There are 100’s of drills for each, and sometimes we get wrapped up in the most complex and sophisticated drills. However, no mater what level your child is at, it pays to come back to the very beginner drills every so often. As players start to run drills concentrating on getting their shot off or shooting off a pass, or shooting coming off a screen, there is a tendency to rush the shot and form deteriorates. Over time and with repetition the form degradation slowly increases. Going back to the basics reminds the child and as importantly the child’s body of the proper motion. It rebuilds muscle memory so that when the player is running the more complicated drills their bodies will more naturally use the proper technique.
