Basketball Upper Body Flexibility There are sports, during which a player can participate with an injured shoulder, but never in Basketball. You want to shoot hoops? You must have full range of motion in both shoulders to function at the optimum level. While lower body flexibility significantly improves performance, upper body flexibility is an absolute must. We'll show you how to achieve fantastic Range of Motion for Basketball!Our programs are scientifically based and created by a world renowned fitness & flexibility expert Paul Zaichik Got my flexibility back after many years! Years ago I was flexible enough to get into a right side split. Those days are long gone. With these three videos I hope to achieve splits in all directions. So far, my seated open front stretch has improved. I can just about lay flat on the floor when bending from the waist. I've also gained about an inch in my right side split and anticipate great results. ​The most obvious range required in basketball is shoulder flexion or an ability to bring the arms directly overhead. There are others as well. The shoulder must rotate in and out and allow for horizontal arm action. On occasion a little behind the back move can save a day. Why is it than that so little stretching is done in basketball training. Well, it's not. While most high schoolers and weekend warrior, just run a few laps and go into the game, in college and in the pro's things are done differently. College players usually undergo at least some stretching programs. Professionals often do trainer or therapist assisted stretching. Each player brings a lot of money to the team, and everthing is done to keep them healthy and in top form. This includes stretching. Due the unpredictability of basketball, the players arms can be in any possible position. If the range of motion is not there, points could be lost or worst. A player can injure the shoulder. For this reason flexible shoulders are a must.Our program develops quick basketball specific shoulder flexibility. At the same time, strength exercises are included. These exercise help to retain the flexibility and protect the shoulder in vulnerable position. Avoid injury, improve your range of motion!Professional players do this all the time!And now YOU can too! General basketball stretching routine involve static stretches. More advanced coaches use dynamic stretches. While the dynamic stretches don't like to decrease in muscle contraction speed, like their static counter parts, neither lead to quick flexibility gains. The biggest issue is the stretch reflex. Pain caused by this reflex stops many athletes from developing range of motion. ​Zaichik stretches on the other hand, avoid the pain of the stretch reflex. On top of that they only focus on the muscles needed for the swing, and in the ranges where flexibility is needed most. Together with stretches, strengthening exercises are used in this routine to keep the newly developed range of motion and make it useful for the athlete right away.
