“The little things are the BIG things.”

To be a very good high school basketball, you have to do the little things that many other players will not do. Pushups is such a simple way to improve strength. As a player matures, he may find it necessary to have a more advance strength program, but simply doing pushups for strength will allow more time to develop the fundamental basketball skills that will help a player excel.

Let’s look at a 4 year high school career. With the leap year, there are 1,461 days. how many pushups would that be in a career? Let’s do the math:

10 pushups a day x 1,461 days = 14,610
25 pushups a day x 1,461 days = 36,525
50 pushups a day x 1,461 days = 73,050
50 pushups a day x 1,461 days = 146,100

I was never too good at math, but you could see how the numbers would change if you did two, three, or four sets.

If you are a high school player, give it try. I guarantee if you stick with it you will be one of the strongest players in your league. Use the chart or create your own. Add up your totals for each month and year.

Pushups are one little thing that you can do that will make a BIG difference in who you are as a player.

Good Luck!
