What Makes Great Training Content?

🎯 Overview

Before you upload your first drill, let’s talk about what separates “just another video” from a lesson that actually helps people improve.


Great training content is:

  • Clear – Your instruction should make sense even without video.
  • Purposeful – The viewer should know exactly why they’re doing the drill.
  • Repeatable – Can someone practice this alone or with a partner?


🔍 What to Focus On


1. Clarity Over Complexity

Don’t try to sound smart — try to sound helpful. Keep language simple and focused.

✅ Instead of:

"You're engaging your posterior chain dynamically during the descent phase."

✅ Try:

"Lower slowly, keeping your back straight and core tight."


2. Teach One Thing at a Time

Avoid overloading your viewer. One drill = one skill focus.

✅ “This drill is all about improving your passing under pressure.”

❌ “This will help with passing, vision, shooting, and cardio.”


3. Frame the Why

Every good lesson should answer:

  • Who is this for?
  • What skill are they building?
  • How will it help them?


Example:

“This drill helps beginner guards build faster footwork when recovering on defense. It’s great for players who struggle to stay in front of quick ball handlers.”
