The greatest players in the game of basketball understand the importance of hard work and dedication. The athletes that are willing to push their bodies to the limit and get out of their comfort zone are usually the ones that have a competitive edge on their opponents. Dr. Dish Basketball understands that training hard and game-like isn’t always easy, but it is rewarding when done right!

What is getting out of your comfort zone?

Getting out of your comfort zone with training doesn’t always necessarily mean working extremely hard to the brink of throwing up. It can also mean working on the skills that you know are weaknesses. It’s very easy for players to step on the court for practice and only work on the skills they are comfortable with. It’s naturally in a player to show the best version of them self on the court even at practice or playing pick up ball at the gym. One of the best ways to become a more complete player is to work on weaknesses individually or in the off-season, but then also experiment and try these skills against actual competition. There will always be growing pains and times of embarrassment but eventually that will lead to confidence and success.
