Me too. If we rewind four or five years, I was so curious you wouldn't believe it. What made these best ballhandlers so talented? I had to figure this out. So, I spent countless hours in the last half-decade of my life doing just that.
And I think I've started to crack the code.
Having the best handles isn't just about having the ball on a string. There's some of that, of course, but there's way more than that. It's how well we move. It's how well we read the defense and make decisions.
This is what's going to transfer to the game from our training. If you're tired of not seeing your work apply to a competitive, game environment, this is the spot for you. The Ultimate Ballhandling Program is revolutionizing the way we train our handles. Completely.
This program is years in the making, and the methods have been successfully tested on dozens of athletes at every level. This will be different than any program you've done. You will be uncomfortable. You'll be pushed outside of your current skill level and comfort zone. You'll do some stuff that's weird. But I can guarantee you, you'll have the most fun you've ever had on any program, and will see unbelievable results along the way.
It's what I dreamed of as a player, and I'm so excited to bring it to you.
50 skill workouts: over 4 hours worth of innovative, unique drills make up this portion. You're guided every step of the way, but also have room for creativity to ensure you get the best results possible.
Exclusive videos: at the end of each week, there will be check-ins with mindset videos, recovery tips, and more. We don't just want this to be a program, but a learning experience.
Recovery, mobility, and meditation day: at the end of each week, we recharge with a mobility and meditation day, with a focus on recovery for the next week of work. Plus, nutritional info to help understand optimizing your body composition.
Movement training: as a part of the skill workouts, especially in the warmup portions, you'll be working in unique ways to train your fluidity and movement, which will help not only with your ballhandling but in every area of the game!
You'll feel way more confident. Confidence comes from not only preparation, but seeing constant success in working through tough circumstances. With the perfect challenge level of the workouts, you'll drastically elevate not only your skills but your mindset.
You'll understand and apply the techniques that the best undersized guards use to be so successful. Not only do we study these in the additional videos, but apply them on a day-to-day basis.
You'll play better in-game. This program is aimed towards real-game transfer, not just getting better at the drills themselves! As a result, although there will always be a slight lag, these physical and mental skills will transfer into your real games.
Movement: ballhandling is movement with the basketball. If we can't move fluidly, powerfully, and efficiently, our ceiling is low. No matter how impressive our ball control is. Our goal here is to use what most would consider "performance training methods" (agility, lateral power, reactive core strength, and more) to boost our abilities as a mover, and then apply these qualities to our skill.
Creativity: this is missing in far too many players and coaches! Basketball is an art. To be the most fluid and overall best ballhandler, we have to play into this over the course of our development. Plus, we have more fun in training when we don't box ourselves in.
Feel: we have all played with those hoopers who seem to always make the right decisions. Who read the defense like a book. At the end of the day, basketball is played with 9 other players on the court, so we have to train this way. As a result, we have included live play and reactive drills throughout the program. There will always be an alternative or pre-recorded audio cues if you don't have a partner, but this is going to skyrocket your transfer to the game.
How is the program organized? The program is 10 weeks, organized into daily workouts. Each day has its own workout (example: Week 3, Day 4: Acceleration Technique), with 5 days a week devoted to skill workouts, one to mobility, meditation, and recovery, and one off day.
What resources do I need? Preferably, a basket, ball, and partner. However, there are alternatives to every single drill that you can do with just a ball and a bit of space! No worries if you don't have gym access - I made sure that every athlete is able to perform the program regardless of their space constraints.
What skill level is it designed for? Each drill can be adjusted based on skill level. The program was designed for higher level ball handlers, but with the proper regressions, I have gone through the program with beginners who have been able to see huge benefits and the perfect amount of challenge.
How long are the workouts? Depending on the day, if you have a partner, and how fast you move through the drills, the workouts can last between 30 mins and a bit over an hour. The great thing is that you're pretty in control of this, and I encourage adding or cutting out reps to perfectly customize the length of the workout.
Can I do the program during my season? 100%. Once again, every athlete on the Virtual Academy is encouraged to customize the workouts to their circumstances, so some workouts can be done in even 15 minutes by cutting out drills that aren't relevant in-season, demand too much physically, or even simply take too long!
Are there refunds? No refunds are accepted on Virtual Academy programs.
