How it Works

This is a 20 minute shooting series that is timed from the very first attempt by the player. The goal of this workout is to simulate game speed conditions, work on shots from various spots on the floor, and find out who your shooters are. Each player must follow the progression below. This works great with a partner so the shooter has someone to count for them.
