Book Description

August 4, 2003 52-Week Sports Training Series


Designed for both male and female players, this book helps athletes develop the strength to set screens and convert three-point plays, the speed to run the court and get into position, the balance to change direction on a drive, the quickness to get loose balls and blow by a defender for easy baskets, and the explosive jumping power to block shots and grab rebounds.

Chip Sigmon, athletic trainer for The Epicenter for Sports Performance Facility, a division of OrthoCarolina Medical Group, and former head strength and conditioning coach for the Charlotte Hornets and the Charlotte Sting, provides everything that coaches and players need to get that competitive edge and keep it year-round as they learn to


-develop fitness in the off-season,

-improve speed and power in the preseason,

-maintain a high level of conditioning through the regular season, and

-perform at peak abilities in postseason competition.

52-Week Basketball Training presents daily workouts for optimal training throughout the year so that players can withstand the rigors of the sport. Thorough explanations and detailed illustrations provide clear instruction on how to perform each of the 192 drills and exercises.

By following Sigmon's year-round training program, players will become stronger, more dominant, and more confident on the court.

bad deal all around March 26, 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
A friend of mine ordered this book as he is a basketball coach here in the mountains of Mexico.....nonetheless....we were not given any shipping option.....so the book went by a packaging service and was sent to the state capital where it sat for weeks............then finally returned to the seller.....we were charged $50 us dollars for the "postage"............even though the actualy small cost of the book was returned....thankfully.

I don't know why you don't offer shipping options like you once did....this makes it really chancy on getting things.........and really bugged me to say the least....
