Ken Berger of Hoop Science joins the show to discuss fitness & nutrition in the NBA. We cover what LeBron James spends a million dollars a year on his body, which teams have strong training staffs, Ken's personal story, the emergence of wearable metrics, workout recovery, supplementation, & a lot more. After Ken Berger's first full season as the NBA columnist for CBS Sports, he woke up in a Las Vegas hotel room feeling miserable. Despite not yet being 30 years old, he felt 60. He spent about six months working out by himself, eating healthier, and began feeling better. Ken got certified as a trainer and nutrition coach. In 2016, he opened his own training facility, Max Velocity Fitness + Performance. Continued his NBA writing career, he started noticing some things. NBA teams were using the same training, nutrition, and injury-prevention techniques that he was using with his clients. He's now created a newsletter Hoop Science, for those who want to dive even deeper into the Training, Nutrition, Recovery, and Technology that help NBA players perform better and stay on the court. He'll be creating exclusive video content, launching a podcast, and hosting Zoom Q&As.
