Episode 124: Last month I shared that I helped co-author a book called, There's More Than 1 Way to Skin A Cat.  We've got 2 NBA, 3 Division 1 and  5 European Basketball performance coaches contributing to chapters on mobility, stability, power, agility, periodization and recovery.  I received my copies of the book last month and they turned out awesome.  For anyone wanting to buy a copy, make sure you reach out to @silk_man on Instagram, and Luka will take care of you.   And so Today's episode is another sneak peak into our book, where I interview the 9 coaches and ask, “what's your thought process on reducing ankle sprains.”  And then you get to hear exactly how the Chicago Bulls, Denver Nuggets, Kansas Jayhawks and Louisville Cardinals do it here in the states.  And you'll also get to hear how professional teams in Istanbul, Brescia, Jerusalem, Slovan and Maccabi do it in the European Leagues.  My goal for this episode is to prove that there really is more than one way to train & condition basketball players. Here's a list of contributors:  Luka Svilar has a PhD in Sport Science with a master's in Kinesiology and brings a wealth of experience from working with esteemed teams such as Bayern, Baskonia, Turk Telekom and Croatia's NTs. Ramsey Nijem is the Director of Performance for the University of Kansas Men's Basketball Program.  He holds a Doctorate of Science in Human and Sport Performance and a Master of Science in Kinesiology.  Before joining the Jayhawks, he spent 5 season s with the NBA's Sacramento Kings.  Jure Drakslar is the Head Strength & Conditioning coach and rehabilitation specialist at BC Zenit Saint Petersburg.  He has over two decades of experience in professional basketball and hold's a masters degree in sports science.   He's also a personal off-season strength & conditioning coach for many top-level basketball players, including my son's favorite NBA player, Luka Doncic, who he worked with for 3 off-seasons.  Matt Comer is currently working on his PhD in Health & Human Performance while holding a master's degree in biomechanics and a bachelors in athletic training.  He began his basketball  strength & conditioning career working in the G-League before getting promoted to the NBA.  Roberto Iezzi holds a master's degree in sport science and has almost 20 years of experience in basketball.  He's currently the head of performance at Brescia Basketball, responsible for the players performance and rehabilitation.  Kostas Chatzichristos is the Head of Performance at Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul,  He holds a masters degree from the University of Texas at Austin and is a current PhD candidate at Democritus University.  Kostas also serves as the director of the Euroleague Strength & conditioning Coaches association.  Adam Petway is the Director of Strength & Conditioning at Louisville basketball and leverages extensive NBA experience with the 76ers and wizards.  He holds an MBA in sport management and earned bachelors and PhD degrees in Sport Science.  Reggie Fanan is a graduate of the Zinman School of Coaches at Wingate and has served as Maccabi's Head Strength & Conditioning coach for over a decade.  He is a former Euroleague player, which gives him a unique perspective as a basketball performance coach. Claus Souza, He holds a master's degree in applied sciences, a bachelors degree in physical education, and is an NBA championship with the Denver Nuggets.   He has over 15 years of strength & conditioning experience, working with the NCAA, WNBA and private sector.   Instagram  @HoopCommitmentTwitter

Ramsey Nijem's mom worked multiple jobs to put food on the table for her family and give them the opportunity to excel. So it's no surprise that he worked so hard in college that he finished his master's and doctorate in half the normal time and ended up working as an assistant strength coach for the Sacramento Kings just a few short years later.It took years for the Kings to lay the foundation for their recent return to the NBA playoffs and Ramsey was on site pouring concrete and laying bricks every day, often for 15+ hours. He was one of the first strength and conditioning coaches to integrate data-driven decision making, but always pursued a person-first, athlete-second model. He could've stayed at the Kings or in the league for his whole career, but when Bill Self came calling, he moved on to KU. That very next season, Jayhawks like Christian Braun – now an NBA champion with the Denver Nuggets – led the team to a national title.In this episode, Ramsey shares:·       How his dog and a gold chain changed the course of his life·       What he sacrificed to accelerate his education and professional development in elite performance·       How he implemented sports science thoughtfully with the Kings·       Why most people think about NBA load management wrong·       What powered KU basketball to the 2021 NCAA Final Four and a national title·       Why he embraced life in Lawrence·       Why Bill Self is such a great coachKeep up with Ramsey on Instagram @dr.ramsey.nijem and check out his 8-week course and certification for up and coming strength & performance professionals at https://www.appliedperformancecoach.com/

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.

Like Josh, I started my post-college career working in a field that had nothing to do with exercise science. We both made our way to this field through self-discovery and a love of training and even both had our cars totaled/stolen while in grad school. I loved hearing Josh detail his journey and be challenged by the likes of Dr. Ramsey Nijem and Cory Schlesinger. His insights on asking questions and challenging the status quo were particularly poignant for me as I think that is the mindset we all need to have to evolve the profession. Having met Josh last year the Bay Area Sports Symposium, I saw Josh's passion during the roundtable that featured the entire Sacramento King's staff and knew I had to get him on the show. Josh has had some big moments in his career already and has met all of them with that same passion.

Today’s episode features strength coach Sheldon Dunlap, one of the most creative strength coaches I’ve met who is doing big things with strength training for speed enhancement.   Sheldon has been a strength coach at UC Davis 3 years, one of his primary sporting assignments being track and field.  Prior to UC Davis, Sheldon was a strength coach for the NBA D-league Erie Bayhawks and was an intern at Duke University. I first met Sheldon at  the First Annual “Bay Area Sports Performance Seminar” put on by Dr. Ramsey Nijem, as we sat at a table together while listening to presentations.  In learning of some of the things that Sheldon was doing in the weightroom with his track athletes, and the impact it was having on their performances, I discovered I was sitting next to a young pioneer in our field.   Today’s show is all about Sheldon’s strength system for track, which has unique ideas in the sequencing and integration of oscillating reps, as well as training methods for the hip flexors (TFL in particular) and the feet.  This is an awesome “nuts and bolts” episode with training ideas that anyone can instantly integrate into their own system (as I have). Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more.   Key Points What Sheldon is doing with his track program’s strength and conditioning How Sheldon got into tendon elasticity considerations in his program How Sheldon replaced the isometric phase of Triphasic Training with an oscillating isometric phase The types of lifts Sheldon used in his program Sheldon’s approach to hip flexor work, specifically TFL work How skateboarding impacted Sheldon’s long jump takeoff Sheldon Dunlap Quotes “Tendon elasticity is the name of the game in track and field” “I replaced the isometric phase (of Triphasic Training) with oscillating work… we had our Blue and Gold meet that year and people were getting PR’s left and right, left and right” “The first time around I did this we did two weeks of eccentric, two weeks of oscillating, and then they went home, and I used 5-3-1 for their concentric phase while they were at home” “I want a “black mini band” type of athlete (an athlete who produces more movement power respectively through the power of the fascial system” “(After a deep oscillating squat phase) I felt like lightning coming out of the bottom of the squat, but I got stuck halfway up” “After going TFL pops, the next day after bounding, my TFL had never been so sore in my life” “The stronger your TFL is the less you have to rely on your psoas” “In skateboarding you are able to produce a lot more elasticity because you are putting your foot on the ground with a great amount of force in a small amount of time” Show Notes Oscillating squats https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOZHVwKfCOM TFL Pops https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=su4xw9h4pKc&feature=youtu.be   About Sheldon Dunlap Sheldon Dunlap has been a strength coach at UC Davis 3 years, one of his primary sporting assignments being track and field.  Prior to UC Davis, Sheldon was a strength coach for the NBA D-league Erie Bayhawks.

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? He believes it’s the winner of Daniel Cormier and Stipe Miocic, but he’s also not against taking another fight before reaching the belt. UFC Light-Heavyweight prospect and Jackson-Wink product Devin Clark joins us to campaign for a fight in Lincoln Nebraska this August against Anthony Smith. The “Brown Bear” has called out Anthony on social media, but has yet to get a response. We’ll discuss the possible matchup, why Devin chose Anthony Smith specifically, who else he has in mind if Smith declines, and more. Former Bellator lightweight champion and UFC veteran, “Ill” Will Brooks, joins us to preview his Professional Fighters League debut against Luis Firmino in Chicago this Thursday. We’ll hear why Brooks chose to sign with the PFL, his thoughts on the revolutionary format of the promotion, his reignited passion for competition, and why he’s confident that with one win at a time, he’ll be the first PFL lightweight tournament champion.
