Boxing
glove basketball shooting skills punch holes in prevailing shooting
myths, strike at the heart of common misconceptions, knock-out
‘fundamental’
flaws, hammer home reliable techniques that hit the mark, connect with
their
target, score more points in each and every round, and have the
stability and
consistency required to beat the competition. Poor
fundamentals ‘handicap’ a player’s
overall
performance and prevent them
from reaching their full potential. Believing incorrectly that they
have been
taught sound mechanics, they can struggle for years without
improvement.
Eliminating these ‘handicaps’ and learning new
skills
enables them to achieve
higher levels of accuracy all around the court and can allow them to
sink shots
reliably even while wearing heavy bag boxing gloves!
’Traditional’
Methods Undermine A Player’s Performance
Like
a punch-drunk boxer who never knew what hit him,
today’s players are
wobbly, throw wildly and erratically, fail to hit the mark, and lose
point
after point in every round. They are being blind-sided, sucker-punched,
and
knocked down-and-out-for-the-count in the ring of competition, not by
an
opponent, but by their own basketball shooting
‘fundamentals’.
Boxing
Glove Basketball Shooting Skills illuminate and eliminate the
common
perils and pitfalls found in traditional shooting
‘fundamentals’ that impede
and impair performance and provide a simple, straightforward,
streamlined path
to become one’s personal best in this glorious quest.
The
AIM
CENTER
Rehabilitates Players Suffering From Shooter’s
Fundamentalitis.
Seeing is believing. The AIM
METHOD demonstrates the superb
control,
mastery of movement, and accuracy that is obtained by maintaining the
fluidity
and repeatability of form in execution. In an amazing video,
part
of which aired on the Comcast SportsNet DAILY
NEWS LIVE SHOW, hosted by Michael Barkann, Roger Galo while wearing
various
kinds of gloves, including heavy bag Boxing Gloves, sank 137 out of 139
shots
taken (98.56%). The AIM METHOD
was able to produce these astounding
results by eliminating unnecessary hand and arm movements used in
‘traditional’
approaches and replacing them withrepeatable,
reliable, efficient and effective, streamlined shooting mechanics that
are far
superior to others being taught today.
Roger Galo, formerly ranked #3 in the country collegiately and a NBA
prospect,
shot for many years using ‘traditional’ shooting
techniques, but was unable to
achieve results as remarkable as these until he abandoned
‘traditional’
techniques and developed The
AIM METHOD.
The Quest for the Holy
Grail
in Basketball. From which of the paths
will you choose? ’Fundamentals’
lay the foundation on which all other skills are built and from which
all are
reached. You become what you practice most. It makes sense, therefore,
to be careful what you practice.
Boxing
Gloves Strike At The Heart Of A Common Misconception
A
common
misconception is that boxing gloves
pose a ‘handicap’ to an individual’s
shooting
ability. How then is it possible
for an individual who is severely ‘handicapped’ by
wearing
heavy bag boxing
gloves to achieve such astounding results, while others who are not so
‘handicapped’, and who have been trained by the
best known
coaches around, are
able to achieve only mediocre performance? The answer is obvious. The
boxing
gloves do not pose a ‘handicap’ to an
individual’s
ability to repeatedly and
reliably sink shots. The real ‘handicap’ lies in
the
movements used to execute
the shots!
Boxing Gloves
Punch Holes In
Prevailing Shooting Myths
According
to established Basketball Doctrine it’s
‘impossible’ to sink shots repeatedly and reliably
while
wearing gloves.Glovesexclude
tactile sensation (the feel of the ball),
hand
grip, and
hand dexterity. The elbow was
not under the ball, the ball could
not
be gapped in the hand, shooting off the index finger and middle finger
could
not take place, and proper follow through with what is called the
“goose neck”
or “hand in the cookie jar” was severely impaired, and
yet 98.56% of139
shots taken were sunk? All of
those basketball ‘fundamental’ movements
‘believed’ to be essential to develop
and maintain accuracy were eliminated by wearing gloves. It may seem
heretical
to challenge these fundamental beliefs, but the demonstrable fact is
that
traditional basketball ‘fundamentals’ are
fundamentally
flawed! Those movements
do not work to enhance performance; they actually work to impair
performance!Established
Basketball Shooting Doctrine is discredited and debunked by Boxing
Glove Basketball.
Boxing
Glove Basketball and Battleship shooting
skills have a lot in common. Battleships are equipped with heavy side
armor to
protect them from direct shots fired at them by the enemy, but are
vulnerable
to shells lobbed at them in a high arc that come crashing down and can
easily
penetrate their weak upper deck armor. In basketball, the hoop presents
a very
narrow target to shots fired directly at it, but its full circumference
is
exposed and it presents a large target which is much more vulnerable
and easily
penetrated by shots lobbed at it in a high arc. Basketball and
battleships
employ the same shooting strategy for ‘sinking’
shots.
The 'Q.W.E.R.T.Y.
Keyboard', An
Obstacle Course To Human Proficiency
Q.W.E.R.T.Y
are the top row of letters that start on the left-hand side of a
typewriter keyboard. Placement of those letters and the arrangement of
all of the other letters on the keyboard were designed with the sole
objective of making it as difficult as possible for a typist to type
quickly and easily. On early mechanical typewriters the typeface for
each letter was at the end of long steel arm that was raised to hit the
ribbon and leave an impression on a sheet of paper when the typewriter
key was pushed down. Early typists were able to hit one letter, then a
second, and then a third, before the arm of the first letter had fallen
back from the paper, causing the keys to jam and damage the typewriter.
To solve this problem all of the most commonly used letters were
arranged to make them harder to reach, slow the typist down, and
prevent key jams. Human speed, efficiency, and accuracy were sacrificed
to meet the requirements of the machine.
