Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Youth Basketball AMA: Always Tired, Recovery From Injury, “Going Pro” Meaning
Q: Should you do 6 AM workouts if you're a youth basketball player?
Only if you are getting nine hours of sleep, keeping total weekly load under control, adding two strength sessions weekly, and there are no signs of chronic fatigue; otherwise such sessions can be counterproductive and steal sleep. If conditions are right, 6 AM sessions can be beneficial when paired with smart, targeted skill work rather than just extra drills.
Ep. 26 | From Kobe’s Mindset To Youth Development | Tim DiFrancesco
Q: What sports do your daughters do?
My daughters try various sports each season, and I let them choose what they want to do without forcing them into one specific sport year-round.
Ep. 26 | From Kobe’s Mindset To Youth Development | Tim DiFrancesco
Q: What would you advise young players to develop or learn to maximize their chances of going pro?
Don't look at the ultimate goal and compare yourself to LeBron James right now. Look at your peers and see what the best at your level are doing and do more of that.
Ep. 25 | Simplify Training to Build Strong Athletes and Children | with Luka Svilar (Part 2)
Q: Would that be the same thing you would advise to a young player who wants to be a professional basketball player?
Yes, it takes time to become a professional; players need to focus on growth and understanding the game.
Ep. 25 | Simplify Training to Build Strong Athletes and Children | with Luka Svilar (Part 2)
Q: What do you think parents could understand better about long-term success for a kid?
Just being patient. Parents often rush the process and need to trust that if their child is good enough, opportunities will arise.
