Before going down this entrepreneurial path, Adam spent years working on his professional career in mixed martial arts, gearing up for the biggest fight of his life in MMA. During that preparation, he suffered multiple traumatic brain injuries and concussions which restricted him to do nothing but sit in a dark room for six months. But out of that darkness came light. Adam used the time to plan the biggest comeback of his career both in and outside of the cage! Listen as podcast host, Taylor Burke, explores his story, and hear how he turned his biggest hardships into the biggest wins.

Injuries can be huge setbacks for competitive athletes. Everyone has a certain window of time in which they can play their best. Time out of competition is time lost that can’t be recovered. For some, they can end a career. The question dovetails well with episode 46’s discussion of workload management, but obviously that’s not the whole story. Dr. Ramsey Nijem gives us insight from his doctoral thesis, as well as his work with professional athletes. There are some great takeaways for coaches, athletes…and even powerlifters. Here are some of our thoughts: What lifestyle factors outside of training might lead to injury? Does drinking or drug use make injuries more likely? How are outcomes and training effects different? Does it help get stronger period, or does it matter how strength is incorporated? How much is controllable? We kick off the conversation by wondering if 25 should just be the legal age for everything? Dr. Nijem earned his Doctorate of Science in Human and Sport Performance as well as Health Promotion and Wellness in 2018. He has published research in top scientific journals in strength and conditioning and is currently investigating injury risk in NBA athletes. He earned his B.S. from UC Santa Barbara and M.S. from Cal State *Fullerton’s Center for Sport Performance (where he studied with Dr. Andy Galpin). After several years as head Performance and Strength Coach for the Sacramento Kings NBA franchise, he recently became the Men’s Basketball Director of Sport Performance for the University of Kansas (KU Jayhawks), one of the top Division 1 college basketball programs.

How do you balance the strength and conditioning work of an athlete with the practice, and actual performance, of their sport? Dr. Ramsey Nijem gives us insight from his doctoral thesis, as well as his work with professional athletes. There are some great takeaways for coaches, athletes…and even powerlifters. Here are some of our thoughts: How is exertion in a game setting quantified? How much is based on personal observation versus some automated system? What role does sleep play? How much do food, and alcohol, choices affect everything? Does travel screw things up as much as you’d think? Are there emotional factors that seriously impact performance? How can a coach help an athlete improve their recovery? Dr. Nijem earned his Doctorate of Science in Human and Sport Performance as well as Health Promotion and Wellness in 2018.

If you’re strength and conditioning coach, you probably want to work with athletes. If you can, you probably want to work with professional athletes. How do those opportunities come about? And will striving to get there make you an all-around better coach? We asked Dr Ramsey Nijem, who a few year ago became probably the youngest every head strength coach in the NBA, to break it down for us. Here are some of our thoughts: What are the degree requirements? Which certifications are really necessary? How do you learn to handle professional athletes? How much is programing and how much is psychology? What do you have to do to prove yourself to management? Is there a clear career path?

The latest episode of BJPENN.COM Radio has arrived, Penn Nation! Our first guest, coming off a devastating third round finish of Alistair Overeem at UFC 225 that likely cemented him as the rightful No. 1 contender to the heavyweight title, Curtis “Razor” Blaydes. We'll recap the victory in his hometown of Chicago and discuss the heel-hook attempts by Overeem that injured the knee of Blaydes. What's next for Curtis?
