Westbrook123's journal

[westbrook123]

Hey guys I'm new to this forum and i decided to make a journal to be held accountable and to track my progress, I'm 13 years in old in 8th grade and I play pg I've been on the internet a lot lately so I've decided to only check it at night for about 20 minutes, 

some of my strengths
I'm very fast, quite strong and athletic, great passer, good finisher, high basketball IQ , great at drawing fouls, good defense but could use improvement

my ball handling isn't great but it isn't bad im really looking to improve it cuz right now im mostly just beating press and my man off the dribble with just speed and i feel its holding me back a little 

 weaknesses 
my biggest weakness is definitely my shooting especially at the line because i usually take around 10 a game and make 4-6, also i don't really have a floater but its decent considering I've never practiced on it, left hand its okay but could use a lot of improvement, conditioning (always struggled with getting tired near the end of games)

comparison: I'd say my comparison would be a mixture of Tony Parker and Jason Kidd

If any one could give some advice or tips it would be appreciated

A few things, first off thanks for joining the forum! And its even better because it looks like your a serious baller who knows what he is doing. Its a good thing you are setting goals, remember to write them out morning and night it will make a huge difference. Also, set goals for skills as well. I highly recommend using the superhandles 100 level eval to track you ball handling results and then for shooting you can really track whichever shots your trying to improve at. For ball handling I highly recommend Dominant Handles by Damin altizer the results are rapid. However, the drills are hard, so if you don't have a solid foundation of ball handling skills, build one. It shouldn't take long, but once you have done that you can move on to dominant handles. Then, once a month, test your handles and see what your rating is. For shooting I really recommend 1 hand form shooting and backboard shooting before you start the shooting portion of your workouts. What programs do you have? For conditioning I would say just limit rest between drills in your workouts so you are always breathing hard and then you can add suicides or 17s at the end. Instead of resting between drills, take 2 free throws. This will help with free throws as well. This is a basic template. Once I know what programs you have I can really recommend further what you ought to do.

Well the programs i have are dominant handles, scoring machine system, better basketball ball handling, pga, ,cluch shooting, Dominate on Defense, and Egt,

[EliteBaller3]

Awesome. Heres what you can do. Dominant Handles or More basic ball handling (if you think you need it, then do basic for like 2-6 weeks before doing dh.) Maybe better ball handling is a good beginners program you could do before starting dh?
Then the full shooters warmup in egt. This include everything from 1 hand form shooting to the 10 free throws right before you start the finishing complex. Then go into a pga workout, then do 5x20, then if you want, you can end with dominate on defense. Are you currently in season? If so you may not want to do all this, and if you are in off season, with atleast 24 weeks till the season, I would do dh and sm w/egt shooting first and then dh and pga with egt shooting for the last 12 weeks.
