Time is No Excuse

After a recent training session I had I decided to stick around and get a short shooting workout in. I didn't have much time so I wanted to get in as many shots as possible in 30 to 40 minutes. I was by myself so I didn't have a rebounder and I used a rim reducer. The rim reducer I used was made by Competitive Edge and it made the rim 16 inches in width and it sits 1 inch higher than the rim to improve shooting form and optimal arc. In 30-35 minutes I was able to make 125 shots plus some free throws. I made 100 shots inside the arc and 25 shots from 3. There was a variety of shots taken and made. Shots off the pass (self pass), off the dribble, off various pivots, fakes, etc. So if you are a player in middle school, high school, or even a college player all you need is a little time to get in a good workout. Your shooting workouts are about being efficient. It's not how many shots you take but how may you make. I showed that I could make 125 shots in 30-35 minutes with a rim reducer so that means players should be able to make 150-175 shots in the same time without a rim reducer. Go to the gym with a plan and get after it. Now you can't say you don't have enough time to get to the gym.
