Begin on block facing away from hoop and toward coach, who has three eight-kilo med balls and one basketball
As coach hands you med ball at chest level, pivot on inside foot and use entire body to throw ball as high as possible over rim
Repeat with final two med balls as quickly as possible
When coach hands you basketball, pivot and dunk it or lay it in with the same speed and explosiveness
Reps: 3-5 to each side of basket
Coaching Point: “The throw has to be a full-body throw. If you can hit the ceiling with the ball, great. Throw the med ball with equal force from both hands so you’re not off-balance or in an awkward position. Never let the ball come below shoulder level, because everyonebig men, especiallyshould get in the habit of getting a rebound and keeping the ball high to go back up with it.”
Benefits: When you get the basketball, you will feel like you can jump out of the gym because you were just overloaded with med balls.
