Sprinting & Long Distance Running

Basketball players and athletes in general should perform both interval sprinting and long distance programs simultaneously. An easy way to understand that would be a 3 mile run followed by 10, 100 yard sprints. This is a great way to get athletes in the frame of mind for game fatigue. It's a perfect way to find out how much wind certain players will have under tremendous fatigue.

1. 3 Mile Run
2. 10, 100 yard sprints

Basketball Strength Volume II has detailed running programs for coaches and players.
