Excellent Tips On How To Deliver Your A-Game With Truth About Quickness

By Jeremy Robert Charles


The Truth About Quickness Insider's System is the combined knowledge of two speed training consultants: Alex Maroko and Kelly Baggett.

Alex is a young instructor who is also the creator of the Effective Ball Handling Program. Kelly is somewhat of an idol in the sports activities coaching community, and his most famous work is the Vertical Jump Bible.

Kelly is extraordinarily educated and experienced relating to speed training, but he is not that great at communicating his thoughts. Alex makes up for his deficiency of experience with excellent communication ability. Combined, they deliver an incredible training program.

I'm not saying that Kelly can't communicate or that Alex doesn't understand speed training. In fact, they both do this better than ninety nine percent of the trainers around. What I am saying is that what one lacks, the other one makes up for, and more.

The Truth About Quickness syllabus is really easy to grasp and simple to follow. It additionally helps that the exercises are actually short, and you can literally finish each exercise in roughly ten minutes. You additionally get videos of all the exercises so you know exactly the best way to perform them, and the charts assist you to maintain track of your routines.

The one fault that I could find with the program is that the video quality seemed low. It was shot in a rough gym, which looks like it has been used by a lot of athletes. Nevertheless, simply because the movies were not taken in HQ doesn't do anything to lessen from the truth that the Truth About Quickness is a superb speed training program.

Here are 3 of my favorite basketball training workouts for blazing on-court speed:

1. Low, On-Off Box Jumps

To do this exercise, get a low stair or box about 2-6 inches in height. Then, stand in front of the box, and jump on and then off the box as easily and rapidly as you can. Do that for 2-4 sets of 10 repetitions (jumping onto the box after which off of it is counted as one rep).

2. Lateral Line Hops

To perform this training, draw a straight line on the ground or apply a piece of adhesive tape. Then, stand at one side of the line and jump horizontally forwards and backwards over the line. Do the hops as quickly as you can. If you would like extra bounce in your step, hop slightly elevated over the line and concentrate extra on rhythm and smoothness than simply speed. Do this for 2-3 sets of 20 reps (1 jump over the line is counted as 1 repetition).

3. Pogo Jumps

To do this exercise, you need to leap as high as you can, however concentrate on getting all of your hops out of your plantar flexors (ankles). To do this, keep your knees and hips nearly locked, and simply use your ankles to push yourself into the air. Really concentrate on bouncing off the floor, and decrease your ground contact time. Do this for 2-3 sets of 15-20 repetitions.
