What are some of the best things to do to get back into basketball shape (fitness and skill wise) after a couple of years out of the game .... when training by yourself (one on none if you like).
I've downloaded the beep test and after a really really pathetic first up attempt I've decided to do that 4-5 nights a week plus 20-25 minutes of shooting around afterwards...
Thoughts?
Note: I'm a big (and not exactly the most mobile :? ) guy.
mate anything where you can get your heart rate up, and keep it up for 30 or so mins a day, is pretty decet, get into some form of yoga.. really helps your body when your trying to get back in shape....
have a high intensity when ya shoot, dont let the ball hit the floor after a rebound, sprint to your shots etc...
swimming is also great...
there is lots of different things you cna do...

As is cycling. These two put the least stress onto your skeleton.
At the moment (high school basketball offseason kinda) I'm working two players out. One was part of a squad that recently won the national championships so I am pushing him alot to strive to his potential.
Alot of his work involves, play in the paint. Rebounding, boxing out, breaking down boxes, post play etc.

what about jump shooting, ball handling, perimeter defence, passing, perimeter moves and using screens? :lol:

I'm a relatively young an inexperienced coach so I usually teach what I am sure that will work.
Ball handling and passing don't really need any help - every kid these days wants to be an Iverson. But I'd be interested to know about how to go about perimeter defence.
As for jump shooting, alot of emphasis goes on the speed of release, pushing through the legs, follow through, good technique - you may be familiar with the "SWISH" principles.

Re: perimeter defense.
I know bugger all about guarding things off the ball, but on ball certainly lateral drills (defensive slides) would be ideal.
Hogsbreath here who coaches Hills Under 12s (who I'm assisting) had a contraption in training which was like a rubbery device which you roll on the ground to someone and it bounces every which way and you have to anticipate its movement and catch it. Anyone seen or have one? Pardon me if its a common device.
on the ball, keep your belly button in line wiht theirs, if you cna do that, while defending the dribble.. well done...

Err, what if your belly button is only level with their ankles? :D

Or as Deb Cook from the AIS puts it......."Guard the logo" Maintain vision on the logo on front of your opponents singlet. Until it goes somewhere they aint moving
