Sports · Basketball
Basketball training, measured from day one.
Speed, strength and power training for basketball players ages 8–18, by age group, starting from a baseline we measure.
“He's getting so much stronger, and his coordination and athleticism is on an upward trajectory too. I've seen him doing things on the basketball court he couldn't do before.”
Who it’s for
- Players getting ready for the season — and staying strong during it
- Athletes who want more speed, strength and power
- Beginners — many start having never lifted a weight
- Multi-sport athletes who also play basketball
How we train it
Every athlete starts with a baseline and is retested as often as weekly, and parents see the numbers in the Universal Speed Rating app. Our guarantee: at least 1 mph faster and 2–3 inches higher on the vertical in 90 days — or your training is on us.
02
Strength.
Technique before load.
Foundational strength first, then loaded progressions as the athlete earns them.
03
Power.
Explosive lower body.
Jumps and explosive work, tested on the approach and standing vertical.
In Coach Aaron’s words
“The last two things we’ll do is the approach vertical and the standing stationary vertical. We like to see linear movement, lateral movement, and then lower body power.”

“I've been coming to Premier for four or five months. I've been getting stronger and faster.”
“It's important because you have to kind of be able to sprint down the floor and just get the ball up and through to the other end of the court”
I have trained with Aaron a good amount through high school and he has helped build strength, speed, and to put on muscle.
We were looking for a place to help my 10 yr old son increase his speed. We liked the small class sizes and total training Premier Performance provides. He is getting stronger, his speed is steadily increasing and he is growing in confidence.
He attends 2-3 times a week and we have seen him get faster, stronger, and more confident since starting!

Up to 8 athletes per coach, sometimes with a support coach helping with form and technique.
Can you train our whole team?
Yes. Team Training builds speed, power and strength together as a team, in-house at Premier. Team Training →
