Skills - Conditioning #1 Speed Lay-ups

This drill has a mixture of aspects to it as it works on your physical conditioning, Mental conditioning, Finishing at the rim and Footwork. You will have a minute to complete this drill and you will repeat it 3 times. You need to set a chair up outside of the 3point line at a forty five degree angle to the rim. As fast as you can you will be dribbling from the rim out and around the chair, once you turn the corner you are trying to get to the basket and finish with a lay-up or a dunk by using one dribble. You are aiming to get as many lay-ups as possible and NO MISSES! 

  Make sure to focus on your footwork and that you are elevating off the correct foot. Its also a good idea to sometimes go off 2 feet so you get to work on exploding and finishing while your tiered off 2 feet. Remember this is a conditioning drill for the body and mind so stay focused and finish all the lay-ups
