Balancing is a great way to wake the body up and get warm before engaging in training. When you are in the state of fear your focus becomes even more present. Warming up through balancing exercises brings mental focus and awareness towards the activity/curriculum you’re about to engage in. You have no choice but to slow down and create soft rhythm with your breath. I encourage you to integrate balance throughout your training sessions as well. For now, enjoy this Balance video for an optimum warm up prior to “gettin after it”.
When preparing to sit for a long time (like before a long bus ride), I like to MOVE, stretch, and elongate my spine so I’m able to maintain good posture for the journey. In 10 minutes I did just that, with these 6 movements: Walking, Running, Carrying, Lifting, Jumping, and Balancing.
Bloc training practice. “What I’m constantly reminding myself through the practice is my breath, keeping my core tight, concentrating on my focal point at the bottom of the hill. On the way up I’m keeping the log secure against my making up for the lack of arm momentum with the momentum of a sprint back up to repeat again… After the 2 rep Bloc I did just plop to the ground… I WALKED back down the hill and backwards up it, lowering my heart rate gradually. ” Brandon.

The caption before the video sum it up for you Basketball is play and play is fun. Wish I wore my high tops or even my Lake Moc’s though. Here, I was just trying to jump off both legs individually and simultaneously in stride, in all sort of directions towards the rim. All while trying to throw and catch the ball. Brandon
