Coach
Liam McDonald

LEGACY BASKETBALL is designed to make you a stronger, faster and more explosive basketball athlete! This program has been developed specifically for basketball athletes. Through years of training with our in-person athletes, we have learned the ins and outs of basketball performance. This program brings together all that we have learned and practiced in our gym to make you a better and more durable athlete

At the end of this program you can expect to move, feel and perform better than you ever have before!

This program requires access to a standard commercial gym. I have also provided alternatives in the exercise descriptions for those who may not have access to particular equipment.

Coach
coach-avatar Liam McDonald

I am a current Big V player with 5+ years of basketball performance coaching experience. I currently work with a wide range of clients of various ages and with varying skill levels. I have seen first hand the impact a good training program can have on basketball performance. This program is my way of bringing that experience to you!

FAQs
What if I cannot perform a particular exercise?
We have provided alternatives within the exercise comments for exercises that may require uncommon pieces of equipment. If you need further guidance, please reach out to our coaches for a suitable replacement!
Do I need to complete the sessions on particular days?
No, though we do recommend 48 hours between your gym sessions. This is to allow for adequate recovery to maximise performance gains.

"When I started the program about a year ago, I was slow, non-athletic and suffering through consistent ankle injuries. These days, I move a lot better on the court, I’m throwing down windmill dunks and I’m well on my way to having healthy ankles. I cannot thank Liam enough for this amazing program!"
