We're excited to bring to you, once again, the 10,000 Makes Challenge. This is a simple (but never easy) challenge that incorporates some of your most common fundamentals of scoring and shooting, and puts them on steroids. Everyone can do the Mikan Drill, but how many can do the Mikan Drill for 100 repetitions while trying to beat the clock? Everyone can do the basic layup drill, but how many can do the layup drill for 50 repetitions while trying to beat the clock? Benefits of the 10,000 Makes ClubBefore we dive into the 10,000 Makes Workout - actually - if you don't care about any of this, you can simply scroll to the bottom and view the workout. If you do care about this, let me share some of the most common benefits of the 10,000 Makes Challenge with you.
Week 1 - Workout 1The drills identified below are to be completed back-to-back-to-back. There is no rest, just keep moving. Make the 100 Mikans before you move to the 50 Superman Layups. Make the 50 Superman Layups before you move to your favorite spot. Track your time. Start a stopwatch on your phone or handheld timer when you begin, and stop the time when you are done. Pointers: Mikan Drill is completed under the basket using proper layup footwork and done at the fastest pace possible. Superman Layups are layups from the elbows, and you are allowed one dribble. Favorite Spot is your absolute favorite spot where you'll make the highest percentage of your shots.
Week 1 - Workout 2Workout 2 is exactly the same, with the exception that you're adding in 50 Free Throws in place of your favorite spot.
Week 1 - Workout 3Workout 3 will replicate workout 1. You'll start to see where we are implementing the M.V.P. method which focuses on mechanics, volume and performance. You'll also be able to see how your time matches up against the first workout. Did your time improve?
Week 1 - Workout 4Workout 4 is the same as Workout 2. Again, you'll be able to see how your time stacks up against your workout prior. If you're doing the drills to your max effort, you'll start to see how quickly you develop your weak hand, and footwork.
Week 1 - Workout 5Workout 5 is the final workout of Week 1, but also the workout that gives you 1,000 makes for the week. This is another opportunity improve upon your previous time.
Conclusion: Week 1Week 1 is foundational in nature, and as such is simple (never easy). The workout will take you as long as you need to complete all of the repetitions. Some may take 13:38 while others may take 23:38. That's fine. The goal is improvement, and by the end of the 10 week program, you'll see you core and foundational skills improve vastly.
