Re: Quickness

Theres a lot of different drills you can do...I suggest just playing alot of ball and you should eventually grow into your body.

Re: Quickness

Do a lot of run ups, from slow start, jump with jump rope.

Re: Quickness

do suicides and do squats, they all help many things of your quickness, squats help your explosiveness.

Re: Quickness

It all boils down to working hard and eating right. Take multivitamins and eat a balanced meal 3 times a day. I have found the lifting helps tremendously! Do deadlifts and calve raises. Also pay greta attention to your abs. If you center isnt strong then you will have no balance anyways.

Re: Quickness

The best way to increase your overall speed and accelleration is to run sprints. As often and as many as you can.

Re: Quickness

You can't teach quickness. You'll either be explosive to the hoop or not. I'm living in North Carolina now and I play pickup games with the local homeboys all the time. They always comment on my quick hands and drive to the hoop. It's not my fault I was born with quick twitch reflexes.
