"Death is undefeated, but I'll take it to three overtimes. That's strength." Houston strength coach Kurt Hester was diagnosed with Stage IV melanoma. Six months later, he may have lost his hair, but not his indomitable spirit. More from @JenLada:

Couldn't agree more
If you donāt have periods weekly that are Live, Intense, Emotional, with stakes on the line, I promise your kids will cramp G1 You may think your team periods are hard, but I bet itās more survival mode than Friday Night Lights in their minds TLDR: Practice Harder

The amount of teams/coaches still making college athletes wake up at 6 am (or earlier) to train, lift, & practice is š¤Æš¤Æš¤Æ. The data are incredibly clear here. Bad idea.

Would love to know what those conversations are like with that panel and who's on it.
Adam Silver on achilles ruptures: "7 this yearā¦0 last year" "We've already convened panel of experts" "Some experts think it may have more to do with youth ballā¦Offseasonā¦" "AIā¦ingest all video to see if some pattern" "We're taking it v seriously" https://t.co/Xwl4ZEkFTx

I understand this most likely isn't why he specifically got hurt. Im just on a tangent. Physically underdeveloped, overtrained, and undernourished is basketball development 90+% of the time. OK, im done.
The š developmental model from youth to pros is broken. No true off-season. A bunch of junk volume (mileage) with no purpose. Bad trainers with no plan. "Mamba Mentality" with the genetics of Daffy Duck from Space Jam mixed with the nutrition of Goldberg from Mighty Ducks.

Stop telling high school athletes that if they train like the pros theyāll be elite. Most wonāt. Elite athletes have a genetic advantage that is enhanced through their training. Be honest so we can actually guide these kids through athlete development.

Is the data from the force plates during these jumps worth anything? Serious question to anyone in the NBA who gets the information.

No they're not
Any NBA player who isnāt preventatively injecting their Achilles tendons with stem cells every 6-12 months under ultrasound guidance is begging for an injury. These Achilles tears are 100% preventable. SMH.

Chase fulfillment, not just achievement. Create authentic connections and fulfillment is possible. It's not possible with transactional relationships.

Recovery doesnāt happen because you took a day off. It happens because you built a system that allows adaptation.

You were the best conditioned basketball player I've ever been around. Most durable and least fragile.

This is by far the BEST breakdown of why the NBA product sucks today. He @PKSubban1 says it in the most respectful way possible.

The quickest way to divide your locker room is to have one set of standards for your best athletes and another set of standards for everyone else.
