Derrick Rose Workout – How A Natural Athlete Trains


The Derrick Rose Workout – How A Natural Athlete Trains! He was dubbed Mr. Basketball of Illinois in high school and upon leaving high school played for the Memphis Tigers before making himself available for the NBA. Picked up as their #1 draft pick by the Chicago Bulls, it didn’t take the talented youngster long to make a mark on the game.

Derrick Rose WorkoutDerrick Rose is one of those naturally gifted athletes. He can run, very fast. He can throw – a long way. He can jump – very high. All of which are considerable assets when you’re a basketball player.

The key to the Derrick Rose workout regime is consistency. He works out on the agility ladder a lot because it improves his speed and agility. After each ladder session he’ll do a quick sprint to hone his acceleration. For his vertical training, he does single and double leg exercises such as one-legged squats.

This builds up muscle strength in his legs and strengthens the support ligaments and tendons in his knees and ankles. Leg presses improve lower body strength and the plank exercise is great for building core strength.

Derrick Rose Workout RoutineWhen he isn’t playing, he still works out regularly, putting in gym time 6 days a week for an hour and a half in the morning and an hour at night. It might not seem like a lot of time but as his trainer says, it’s not about how long you’re there but about how well you utilize the time that you are there.

And their workout routines are intensive, particularly the morning one. He also does a lot of cardio work and tries to work on his ball handling skills when he’s tired in order to stimulate a game situation.

Nutrition and a healthy lifestyle are automatic choices for Derrick because he understands that what you put into your body largely governs what you’ll get out of it. So he makes sure he gets all the right types of nutrients to allow him to perform at his peak ability. Which may invariably mean using a supplement to help out.

For the last couple of months we’ve been hearing stories about how guys in Hollywood such as Vin Diesel and Zac Efron or top NBA players like Derrick Rose have been using two insane new products to lose body fat and add some incredible muscle bulk in mere weeks.

Needless to say, when word of these ‘wonder-products’ leaked out men everywhere went crazy over them and their popularity simply exploded! Understandably, our readers have also been going mad over them too and why wouldn’t they?
