Arms slippery and soaked in sweat.
Mind frustrated after yet another horrible practice performance.
How do I turn this shit around?🤷🏽♂️
Returning to division ball after 4-year break is tough.
But I know I will have atleast one +20 point game this season.
In my endless research, I stumbled on Steph Curry’s coach, Brandon Payne. His approach? Make training fun, focused, and progressive. Here’s how you can apply it:
1. Set a Mini-Goal
– Make 10 shots in a row. Miss? Restart.
– Why: A goal keeps you sharp and competitive.
2. Mix It Up
– Change the drill, or even the location.
– Why: Variety keeps things fresh, preventing burnout.
3. Add Randomness
– Flip a coin for the next move.
– Why: Train your brain for unpredictable moments.
4. Create Game Pressure
– Act like every drill is the game-winner.
– Why: Prepping for pressure = real game readiness.
This method’s kept my workouts from getting stale—and I can already feel the improvement.
Until next week,
Morten Charlie 👋
