Basketball Weight Training:Learn How To Dominate The Court!

Let's face it, if you play basketball you know that dominating the court would be awesome. You also know one of the best ways to do so is to be able to jump higher. If you can increase your vertical jump then you know there is nothing on the court that can stop you from making insane, game winning slam dunks or grabbing every single rebound that comes your way.
There is a major problem with most basketball training programs becasue they do not focus on strength, which is the most important part of baskeball. Instead, most of them focus on endourance which is exactly the opposite of what you want. Below, I have prepared a quiz for you to test yourself on whether or not you have been training correctly for basketball. I will give you the answers and explain why each answer is correct or incorrect. Ready to get started?

Question 1: When Weight Training For Basketball It Is Best To...
A)Workout upper body and lower body on different days doing a lot of exercises for each
B)Workout the whole body three times per week
C)Working in the 10 and up rep range
D)Working in the 4-6 rep range

The correct answer to this is actually both B and D. If you workout the upper body and lower body on different days you can only train each muscle group two times per week and you will probably be wasting your time doing exercises that do not need to be dome. Working out the whole body three times per week is much better than only two and you will be focusing on all the lifts that matter. If you workout in the 10 and up rep ranges you are focusing on endurance, like i said earlier this is the last thing you want. When you train in the 4-6 rep range you will be training for power which is perfect when it comes to basketball weight training.
