He was a previous guest where we discussed how lifting can help you reach your potential as a runner, and today we are introducing a new program to help you do just that: Run Strong. Tim and I have worked together to build a durability program that will keep you healthy and maximize your running performances. We're offering a special launch discount of 15% with code RUNSTRONG15 that's valid through Sunday, December 10. Go here to check out the program and everything that's included. In addition to introducing our newest program, Tim and I also discuss: Why durability needs to be built and be runner specific What it means to balance an acute and chronic workload  Why strength training allows you to make more “mistakes” in your running How resistance training improves tissue performance and running economy Using complementary strength training to make your running feel better The zones of lower body durability Enjoy our conversation and learn how you can Run Strong!

Thank you DrinkLMNT! A big thanks to DrinkLMNT for their support of this episode! They make electrolyte drinks for athletes and low-carb folks with no sugar, artificial ingredients, or colors. They are offering a free gift with your purchase at DrinkLMNT. And this does NOT have to be your first purchase. You'll get a sample pack with every flavor so you can try them all before deciding what you like best.  DrinkLMNT's products have some of the highest sodium concentrations that you can find. Anybody who runs a lot knows that sodium, as well as other electrolytes like magnesium and potassium, are essential to our performance and how we feel throughout the day. My favorite flavor is watermelon salt, but citrus salt is also a banger. I'm drinking one a day now to help me get enough fluids in our dry Colorado air. It's tasty and delicious and I find that I'm not peeing every 45 minutes throughout the day, which might be an indication I wasn't eating enough sodium. There's now mounting evidence that higher sodium intake levels are not unhealthy – and athletes need substantially more than your typical sedentary person. Of course, ask your doctor if you're worried. But for those athletes running outside in the heat, an electrolyte replacement makes a lot of sense. So check out DrinkLMNT to try their new flavor or get a free sampler pack. Thank You Previnex! After resisting most supplements for the better part of my life, I'm cautiously changing my tune. I'm less than a year from being a Masters runner and in my personal life, I'm optimizing for longevity. I want to be my healthiest self for as long as possible and I'm excited to partner with Previnex to make that happen. Previnex uses the most bioavailable, clinically tested ingredients, the optimal form and dose of each ingredient, pharmaceutical grade manufacturing, testing of raw ingredients and finished products. For every purchase you make, they also donate vitamins to kids in need. I've been taking their Immune Support and multivitamin over the last month and  I feel great. I have more energy and clarity, not to mention peace of mind that I'm giving my body what it needs.  I believe Previnex works and I hope you experience the same benefits as I do.

Since starring for the Oklahoma State Cowboys, Marcus Smart has made a name for himself as a rugged defender capable of guarding all five positions, a capable ball handler, and a reliable shooter. During the Boston Celtics' sweep of the New Jersey Nets, Smart showed his Defensive Player of the Year chops, shutting down Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving during key stretches. But in the first game against the Milwaukee Bucks, Smart was in the locker room with a neck stinger. After returning to the court, he suffered two impacts to his quad, leading to a questionable status for game two. In this episode, former Lakers S+C coach Tim DiFrancesco (TD) explains:What a neck stinger is and how it caused Smart's arm to temporarily lose function and sensationHow the injury compares to a similar one sustained by Chris Paul in last year's playoffsWhy two hits to Smart's quad have put his game 2 status in jeopardyHow such an issue can lead to myositis ossificans (bone growth in the muscle)What the Celtics' medical staff might do to protect Smart as the playoffs progressKeep listening for more NBA Playoffs injury roundups, and check out the TD Athletes Edge website for injury reduction and treatment tips and tools.

There's no doubt that Olympic lifting can help athletes build strength, speed, and power. But having successfully prepared players at every level from prep school to the pros, former Lakers S&C coach, TD Athletes Edge founder, and Basketball Strong Podcast co-host Dr. Tim DiFrancesco has seen that the risks often outweigh the rewards. Because of their long spines, legs, and arms, basketball players' bodies are typically ill-suited to the demands of the snatch and clean and jerk. Unlike some other team sports, they also need to develop fine motor skills. Plus, it can take years to master Olympic lifting, not to mention the difficulty of supervising large groups of players with just one or two sets of coaches' eyes. In addition to detailing such issues in more depth, TD provides viable alternatives to the Olympic lifts that every coach can put into practice. In this episode, TD shares: Why basketball players' bodies aren't usually suited to the snatch and clean and jerkHow S+C programs designed for football often don't translate well to basketball teamsWhy the steep learning curve of Olympic lifting - which is its own sport - is problematicWhat kinds of hinging and overhead pressing coaches can have basketball players perform instead of the Olympic lifts to provide the durability needed to excel on the courtWhich modalities can provide comparable increases in power, strength, and jumping ability without the downsidesHow and why TD talked Kobe out of Olympic lifts late in his career Learn more about developing basketball players' durability with the Basketball Strong online training program and TD's Instagram feed.

“Your assessment, really, is never going to stop with us. We are assessing you as we see how you respond to the dosing and to the prescription of exercise that we give you.” Today we are joined by Tim DiFrancesco discussing working and learning in NBA, building a business, and relationships. After a brief intro Tim starts breaking down lesson’s he learned in his tenure in the league and how they are impacting him as a business man and a coach in the private sector. Being able to work with some of the best players and leaders of all time left a huge imprint on him due to his ability to take a step back and observe them working with other players, coaches, and staffers. Tim then breaks down how they assess everyone from general population athletes, to pros. Next we discuss how subjective monitoring plays a role with what they’re doing at TD Athletes Edge. Tim finishes off by sharing with me his favorite Kobe story, how he handles people who think they’re “the next” Kobe, and how his focus is what truly separated him.
