Basketball Strong: The Power 50 Workout
You don’t have to be a strength and conditioning coach or a scientific mastermind to know that if you cannot lift and control your own body weight, you should not be doing any other external workout.
Join PGC Director Jayson Wells as he walks you through his own Power 50 workout.
Time: 12-15 minutes
Focus: 4 exercises
Jumping Jacks
Start with 50 jumping jacks. Before you do the next exercise, you will do a set of 50 jumping jacks to start every round. This is called Super set.
Round 1: 50 Jumping Jacks, 50 Squats
Round 2: 45 Jumping Jacks, 45 Core
Round 3: 40 Jumping Jacks, 40 Push Ups
You will notice, each round you will drop down 5 reps and super set with jumping jacks. You are welcome to add variety by changing the order of exercises. 40 pushups will be difficult but you can challenge yourself one day by starting with 50 pushups.
Join us at a PGC camp near you to discover how to train so you get better faster, become a disruptive, dominant defender and develop the strength to take charges with ease.
