Coach Dan

Coach Dan Speaks:

If you’re looking to improve your basketball dribbling skills and overall athleticism, consider adding straight leg hip thrusts to your weekly routine. To perform the exercise correctly, start by lying flat on your back on the ground. Bring one of your legs straight up while keeping the other foot firmly planted on the ground, then drive your hips off the floor by pushing through with your heel. This basketball drill focuses on creating a powerful balance between strength and agility which is essential for any basketball player looking to take their game to the next level.
