James Harden pulled up to our PJF Performance Camp and went crazy 😂

Plan👉 freestyle 👉 track. We always go into the gym with a plan. Within that plan we leave room for some free-styling, calling audibles, following intuition instead of staying married to the original plan. Then we track in order to stay organized and allow for true progression.

9. Do breath work 3 times per day. If you need to relax then make the exhale longer than the inhale (e.g. 3 sec inhale, 5 sec exhale through nose)
10. Try to stick to a sleep schedule. Your body loves a consistent rhythm of when you go to bed and when you wake up.

6. Stop spiking stress hormones constantly throughout the day worrying about unnecessary stuff. Relax.
7. Eat at least .85 g of protein per pound of bodyweight.
8. Don’t eat a lot of extra carbs if you aren’t working out hard. Eat plenty of carbs if you are working out hard.

10 Habits That Level You Up Mentally/Physically

1. Movement Snacks (every hour do a 3-5 minute movement routine)
2. Morning Sunlight
3. No phone first hour of the day
4. Read, write, have good conversations daily
5. Walk 10k steps/day. It’s a cheat code for better sleep

If you spiked your workload by 100% and got injured your takeaway would likely be “I did TOO MUCH”. In reality you just did “TOO MUCH, TOO SOON”. Humans can handle pretty large workloads without getting injured as long as you gradually work up to it.

[Paul Fabritz @PjfPerformance]

If you played 2 hours of basketball this week and next week you go play 4 hours, that’s a workload spike of 100%.
The research suggests that overuse injuries really start to rise when workload is spiked by 30% or more. To play it safe aim for no more than 10% per week.

[Paul Fabritz @PjfPerformance]

One of the biggest keys to decreasing pain and increasing longevity in sports and fitness- Don’t spike your workload by more than 10% per week.

[Paul Fabritz @PjfPerformance]

Once you accept that 99% of recovery methods don’t actually work you’ll start to realize the key to recovery is proper programming and avoiding large workload spikes. Train hard without overtraining, don’t spike workload more than 10% per week, sleep 8+ hrs, eat lots of real food

Is Jimmy Butler playing his way into the Hall of Fame??

[Paul Fabritz @PjfPerformance]

Jimmy Butler is really killing the NBA with simple fundamentals. Jump stops, controlled 2 foot finishes, shot fakes, mid range pull-ups. Simple 🤌.

[Paul Fabritz @PjfPerformance]

@farshadsarrafi 💯 Definitely top 5

[Paul Fabritz @PjfPerformance]

Most durable players of this generation based on games played and overall production— LeBron, James Harden, Russell Westbrook. All average 70+ games per season over 14+ years. Anyone else that should be added to this list?

[Paul Fabritz @PjfPerformance]

Jokic has crazy athleticism. Just not the type of athleticism you’re used to (jumping and running fast). Balance, proprioception, mobility at that size, spins faster than any big in the league, footwork crazy. Type 2 athleticism 📈.

[Jackson Lloyd @JacksonLloyd952]

The Philadelphia 76ers now have the best record in the NBA since December 5th (The day James Harden came back)
