About this plan

Program Type: Fitness Training

Length: 5 weeks

Frequency: 4 days per week


Structured for 4 days per week, this program integrates seamlessly with basketball practices, helping players refine shot stability and body control without disrupting performance. You can also create extra sessions each week through the CURVA app.


About the Plan

Shooting Mechanics & Core Control is a 5-week program designed to improve the physical foundation behind consistent and accurate shooting. The plan focuses on developing core strength, posture alignment, and balance to enhance shooting mechanics and stability throughout games.


Through targeted core training, shoulder and hip stability work, and controlled mobility drills, players learn to maintain ideal body positioning and energy transfer from the ground through the shot. Functional movement patterns also improve shooting endurance and rhythm during extended play.


By the end of the program, athletes will experience better shooting balance, smoother mechanics, and increased consistency - allowing them to perform with confidence and precision from any range.
