1. Staying Heart Healthy
  • Basketball is a contact sport, and it requires a
    large variety of skill development. When
    conditioning for basketball, players need aerobic
    and anaerobic training. Aerobic training involves
    endurance, and anaerobic training involves short
    burst activities.

2. Getting into Shape
  • Playing basketball can also help you burn
    calories. The quick lateral movements, running
    and jumping give you an aerobic workout, which
    allows a person who weighs 165 pounds to burn
    about 600 calories. A person who weighs 250
    pounds can burn approximately 900 calories.

3. Building Strength
  • Basketball also helps to build bone and muscle.
    Any physical activity that involves
    weight-bearing helps new bone tissue and muscle
    tissue to form. Your body becomes stronger as a
    result of the tugging and pushing of muscles
    against bone that happens during basketball.

4. Stress Relief
  • Basketball is a great stress reliever. When
    stress is decreased, you have more energy and
    focus to complete other tasks. It also makes you
    more social, which can help prevent depression.

5. Full-Body Toning and Workout
  • When you play basketball you get a full-body
    workout, this helps develop lean muscle in your
    lower back, neck, deltoids, traps and core. It
    also makes your legs stronger, and shooting and
    dribbling help strengthen your arms, hand and
    wrist.
