Great video for athletes, hell even highschool kids that want to be more powerful on their first step. #AnyMeansBasketball

Dennis Smith Jr. has one of the best first steps I've ever seen

I use to have an amazing first step, but after not playing basketball for literally 1 day, I can’t blow past my defenders now. This video will definitely help me.

Damn.... I never needed most of these workout because as a kid Playing Tag, BOMBS AWAY, Super Suicide, football etc. Worked all the muscles in your body. It was when I got older I needed these drills to maintain it. I played against dudes who had crazy first steps without all the work outs who seemed like they had it naturally. Today's kids are sheltered YMCA ballers who believe skills can be obtained thru mimicry and not practice and working out this why if you look closely.. Dudes don't have first steps.. They just have defenders who are scared to get crossed. Great video and analysis

[fkasample]

This content is absolutely amazing, well done. It builds on clear, concise, basic fundamental mechanics. There's no more rapid path to mastery than logical progression.
