  • [Ep.45] Ja Morant Training

    Ja Morant’s performance coach just uploaded oneof Ja’s training sessions via YouTube

    Check it out! 

    I am going to dive into my takeaways from watching Ja Morant’s training videos.

    Here are my initial thoughts and questions that popped into my head after wtching the video:

    1. Is the thing that makes Ja so good going to be one of the reasons he is going to deal with injuries throughout his career?
    2. Why don’t more skills coaches and strength coaches in our area work more closely together?
    3. If NBA players need to train in the weight room, why can it be so difficult to get middle school and high school hoopers to do the same?
    4. Where is his dad?
    5. What were his plyometrics?
    6. Why were there some movements not done to perfection?
    7. How can this process be broken down to those who are not millionaires or pro-hoopers?
    8. Tune in!

    9. [Ep. 43] Should Athletes Train Until Failure!?

      Should athletes lift to failure?

      By placing a large amount of stress on the muscle fibers, they are forced to adapt and repair stronger.

      Therefore, if you train the muscles to fail theoretically the muscle trained should get bigger and stronger

      HOWEVER…. The key is not to do this too often and ensure you're giving your body enough time to recover.

      Recovery is key as understanding that athletes and gen pop are different beasts when it comes to training.
