Basketball Program.

In the competitive game of basketball, the difference between winning and losing is a team's ability to gain the extra edge on their opponents.

Whether it is rebounding, shooting, dribbling, passing or overall coordination and quickness; training with the Acceleration Minnesota Sports Training Programs will help you gain the winning edge. These Programs were developed to help athletes improve their quickness, jumping ability, power, speed, agility, strength, and confidence to improve their game. Basketball athletes who participate in the Acceleration Minnesota Training Programs train with the most advanced technology available today.

Programs designed to improve:

• Acceleration, speed and quickness
• Multi-directional movements for explosive, quick moves
• Body coordination and balance for better execution on the basketball court

PROGRAM COMPONENTS:

Super Running Treadmill: Research has shown that incline running on our unique, hydraulically controlled Super Treadmill provides 200-300% more recruitment of the muscles responsible for increasing and maintaining speed, than running on level ground at the same stride frequency. This specialized training is crucial for improving overall speed, quickness, agility, and acceleration.

Plyometrics: Plyometric training includes a variety of footwork drills and special exercises that enhance an athlete‘s performance and ability to stay balanced and change directions quickly and explosively.

Strength Training: Through the use of specially designed weight equipment and an individualized program, basketball athletes can develop and increase their overall strength base.

Resistance Cord Training: Our patented SprintCords are used on the running treadmill to overload and recruit the hip flexors and quads while sprinting. These resistance bands are different than pulling a parachute or weighted sled because they specifically overload the hip flexors after toe off.
