Bosu Ball: These are great for improving ankle stability; if you have had problems with that I would recommend using one of these.

Basketball: This program can work for all athletes but is specifically designed for a basketball player. We will take advantage of warm-ups and other drills to also build your skills.

A Weight Room is recommended and facilitates the exercises. However, Chapter 8 explains ways you can get the same effect without a weight room. I am not going to lie: a weight room can make it easier.

A Box or Sturdy Chair is required for some drills.You can also use steps or something else creative.
