⛹🏽TSF 130: Conditioning Players Won’t Hate


What’s up, internet basketball junkie?

Many coaches think conditioning has to mean endless running.

But what if your conditioning system could actually improve your offense, defense, decision-making, and toughness at the same time?

Coach Jeff Miszkiewicz’s second product hit the store today - "Conditioning WITHOUT Sprints." It’s a practical conditioning resource built around basketball-specific conditioning, competitive drills, and game-like training, this isn’t “run lines and hope for the best” conditioning.

And for the two-day launch, it’ll be 33% off.

PG - 🏀 My favorite progression to teach on ball defense:

SG - 🎯 This post is spot on. And also, you guys see Valencia came back and forced a game 5, winning two on the road against Panathinaikos? EuroLeague is 🔥 and so are the EuroLeague Tactics

SF - ❤️ Gotta love when coaches from the highest levels of the game drop real hoop knowledge just for the love of the game:

PF - 👁️ Appropriate for any ball screen offense, but this is the exact progression I taught players for the Euro Ball Screen Offense, an offense I used for 5 years with great success (made it to the state finals using it):

C - 🏀 And once you teach players to read ball screens, the next level is figuring out how to disrupt the help AROUND the ball screen:

Most teams practice hard.

Very few actually train for the real chaos of basketball.

Coach Jeff Miszkiewicz’s new "Conditioning WITHOUT Sprints" is built around competition, pace, decision-making, and basketball movement - not just surviving sprints. If you want your conditioning to actually transfer to games, this is a strong addition to your practice plan.

The new release is available now at 33% off, for the next two days.

Have a great week!
