A manual in Mental Training,
By A Customer
This review is from: Basketball Fundamentals: A Complete Mental Training Guide (Paperback)
Jay Mikes has written a book that is a definitive guide to mental training and the analysis of the mental side of basketball fundamentals. He has managed this in a style that is not only captivating but also clear and concise. I found the book a great help in preparing young players for competetive basketball. This book not only helps in solving a crisis (eg: a shooting slump) but also in preventing them.
A great read for coaches and players alike.

Don't forget the Mental Aspect,
By Richard "compteach98" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Basketball Fundamentals: A Complete Mental Training Guide (Paperback)
Basketball Fundamentals is equally valuable to coaches and players of the game. This easy to read book help players and coaches understand WHY certain things happen. Why can't players afford to complain about reffing? Why can some players shoot well in practice and not in games? How can consistency be developed in players? In easy to read language, Jay Mikes not only offers answers to these question, but also solutions. This book will be required reading for my Varsity players.

awsome teaching tool,
By TroyN - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Basketball Fundamentals: A Complete Mental Training Guide (Paperback)
This book is easy to read and is chuck full of information on all facets of the game of basketball. The book is written at a level that a 12 year old will be able to read and understand the information. Topics range from body fitness/performance awareness, mental conditioning for shooting, defense, rebounding, intensity, quickness; strength training, mental rehearsals, analyzing pregame and post-game performance. It was very enlightening and helped me in different aspects in getting points through to my grandson. For the couple dollars spent it has more information in it than all of the other youth basketball books/videos I have combined. This also received praise from my daughter who has become a basketball student herself.
