I am going into a Health club for 45 mins tonight, what can I do to get in shape for basketball?

I already worked on my post moves/ scrimaged for an hour at open gym today, but we start 4 hour practices on November 17th and I NEED to be in shape. What serious conditioning workout should I do?

Sophmore in High school, female.

oh man i remember in basketball we had to do some crazy stuff. heres some thingz u should do: do cycles (theres something called a cycle where u can go up or down) up is where u start at tha baseline, then u run to the free throw line (closest to u) and back 2x, then run to the half court line and back 3x, then to the other free throw line and back 4x, then whole court and back 5x. cycle down is the same as cycle up but u do it backwards. (u got whole court and back 5x first, then the other free throw line and back 4x etc.) u can do sum pushups, situps, weight lift, etc. to get u in shape. hope i helped.

  1. I would say to do sprint work outs. Also do plyometrics to get your legs in shape. These will help your muscles to become stronger, allow you to jump higher, and have more endurance.

  2. well for basketball u must be in good condition ull need to be able to run, for at least 10min without gettin tired. i recomend 10 to 20 min on tread mill, 3 min break , either pacers, or suicides up an down the court or even in your back yard , and work on your body movement u need to work on your awarness , im sure you are already shootin hoops, soooooo work on protecting the ball, dribbling. and your jump shot and lay ups,do this bout 4 days a week and dont give up no matter what.
