Gregg B.

Originally from Maine where I was all conference in three sports and then played baseball and football in college at the division three level.

Adapting to the athlete is top priority. For adolescents I ensure the experience to be fun and enjoyable while instilling confidence and work ethic.
The first few sessions are a discovery period of the athletes limiting factors toward their goals.
1. Biomechanical Analysis.
Foot function, thoracic spine mobility, hip mobility, assymetries, balance and stability.
2. Basketball skills analysis
Physical command of the basketball specific positions for example; the beginning and ending of jumping in multiple directions.
If the athletes weakness is physical ability then the proceeding sessions are a combination of basketball skills and foundational strength.
If the athletes weakness is basketball skill specific then I develop specific drills to improve the limiting factor.
