Basketball Training Workout #8

“If you stop focusing on other people’s lives you’ll have more time to fix your own life.” – Lee Q

Don’t worry about what your opponents are doing. Don’t worry about your friends and teammates are doing. Don’t worry about the internet gossip and player rankings.

All you need to do is train like you want to perform in your games.

Focus on yourself and keep pushing forward towards your goals.
