Jalen Brunson says 30 intentional minutes can beat 2 hours in the gym, and explains the NBA was never his goal because he was consumed with just trying to get a little bit better everyday
βPeople say, βOh, I was in the gym for two hours today.β Like, okay, what did you do in the gym?β You can get a much more difficult and better workout in 30 to 40 minutes versus just being in the gym BSβing for two hours.β
βWhile it was about consistency, it was about being precise. There was intent to everything you did. It was definitely commitment. I loved going out and working out. I loved going and playing pickup.β
βWhen we lived in Virginia, we lived in Charlottesville Virginia when my dad worked at UVA. I would go play at the rec center with college kids. We would play pickup, Iβm playing against older people and Iβm playing well. Iβm not thinking, Iβm going to the NBA. The NBA was never talked about. No. Iβm just trying to get better. It was all about going to college.β
βThere were baby steps. Yes there were long term goals, but Iβm focused on the short term goals. Baby steps, one step at a time. People just want to jump straight there, and they get disappointed because they didnβt enjoy their journey. I enjoyed every step of my journey. Enjoy your steps.β
