EXERCISE TO PREVENT INJURY AND INCREASE PERFORMANCE- OVERHEAD TRICEP EXTENSION

When completing a bounce pass, most of the force is generated from the tricep muscle.  Increasing the strength in the tricep muscle will increase the velocity on the pass and cover more distance if needed.  This exercise can be done twice a week.  3 sets each consisting of 8-12 reps.
