Battle Caught Sleeping Before Working OutWhat’s up basketball world? I hope you all had a great holiday season.
Monday- I went to the gym with my brother and dad. We really focused on ball handling and going back to our old basic workouts. We spent about the entire workout on ball handling. In addition to the ball handling we also took about 100 jump shots off the dribble and worked on floaters and runners.
Tuesday- I went to the gym again, but this time after my workout I played one on one against a few high school and college kids that were there. I didn’t play very well the first two games but I began to pick it up on the rest of them. I’m going to start playing with the older guys more because they are stronger and sometimes quicker than I am, which means my moves need to be shaper and I need to score in different ways.
Thursday- I woke up and played Uncharted 3 and some Modern Warfare 3. Later that day at around 5 I went back to the gym and got up a lot of jump shots up. I worked on close range, mid range, and long range. I shot the ball very well compared to the day before and finished up getting up about 500 makes.
Friday- my grandmother dropped me off at the gym to workout with my speed and agility trainer Julian. We really focused on my landing, so I would be able to get off the floor faster. To do this I had to slide with bands, did squats, and worked on my core. After the workout my mom picked my brother and I up to go to her house up. While there I sold a few games and saved up enough money to buy myself an Xbox 360 and Halo Reach. So I played that as soon as I got to my other house (my mom’s). Later my uncle found my little brothers play gun that shoots out balls of water so Uncle T. started running around the house shooting everybody in the head. I haven’t seen my uncle have that much fun in a while because he is always taking care of his one year-old son, running to work, going to class or sleeping to do it all over again.
Saturday- my mom dropped me off at home at 5 because she had to go to work, which she was not happy about. While I was at home, my uncle Chris came over to give my brother, sister, and I our Christmas presents. We also had a few gifts to give to him for Christmas. My brother and I each received a helicopter that actually flies. My uncle liked it so much that he bought himself one as well. In the late evening, my brother and I also tried to teach my dad how to play Modern Warfare 3. It was a very good night and a great time to relax and spend with family.
