Do you think this is too much?
I have a basket ball game tommorow at 9pm. I was thinking about going to they gym at 5am or going to the gym at 5pm. If I went at 5pm would this be too much. I will have 2 and half hours to rest before tip off. Chest day tommorow. Which one would you do?

Skip the chest tomorrow. Do a full body workout/warmup. Lighter weights, at 5 PM, just to get there all pumped.

I wouldn't work my arms or delts very hard if I were you. I did this once before a pickup game and it was really painfull. Not to mention my game was way off.

my buddy from work did shoulders and deadlifts (deadlifts only because i told him i pulled 405 and he wanted to hit that too...never made it
) one day and then went to play ball almost right after. Next day he told me he scored like 2 points the whole game and couldn't do shit on the court.

Whatever you do, dont workout anywhere close to game time, especially if your doing anything involving triceps. Triceps have a lot to do with how you shoot, and if you work them out before you will be WAY off.

i say you can train with moderate intensity, except don't train legs. thats the absolute worst thing to do before a basketball game.

I'd take the whole day off. No need to do to much. I wouldn't go after the game cause you won't have enough in ya. I wouldn't go before because I think it would throw off your shot. But I have always heard that Jordan worked out on game days before the game.
