I asked this quest lot, all the time really. It is about the mechanics of the practice, the schedule. The question is, what is the best about of time to practice, and I have to do it all at once?
That's a really great question and one wants to answer in detail within this article.
First of all, how many hours do you practice every day? I'm talking about during the low season. During the regular basketball season you of course exercise two to three hours per day with your team and you may or may not find any extra time to practice.
But during the off season, your schedule is wide open. It is good to have a set routine when it comes to exercise. But first go back to the question of how many hours.
This depends. I used to practice for four hours per day. But that was just me.If you practice more, you'll have better results. If you practice less, you have fewer results.
Basketball skill is a direct function of the practicing of the time. Why is that? Because basketball, as many sports and even many musical instruments, all about repetition. have to train the muscles in your arm to the ball at a certain speed and arc every single time.
And the only way to get that, and I mean the only way to do that is to practice.Do it over and over and over, until it becomes second nature. Do until you can do without even thinking because I promise you, when the game on the line is, you don't have time to think about it, your muscle memory has to take on its own.
The only way to do that is by practicing on your own.
You have to do it all at once.During the school year, (but not during basketball season) I come home from school at about 3: 30 and practice for two hours, to around 5: 30.Then I would go inside and eat with my family.Approximately six hours or so, I'd back off the head and get another two hours in.
Voila, was four hours of training each day, but it split into two beautiful and manageable chunks that anyone can handle.When I finished approximately eight hours, that gave me time to do a homework I might have to do.
Admittedly, that it doesn't leave a lot of time to watch tv, play video games, or go online. well actually, we didn't have the Internet back then, but it wouldn't have mattered.
How long you out of your game to work is totally up to you, But people like Michael Jordan practiced for eight to twelve hours per day when they were young. There is no way around it so if you want too big, you need to work out. period.
