NBA players are some of the most well-conditioned athletes in the world. They have to be. To withstand their grueling 82-game schedule, they find staying in top physical condition a necessity. How do the NBA players train? What do they do in the off-season to keep in shape? How do they incorporate strength training into their workouts? What do they eat before a game for maximum performance? These questions and more are answered in the first-ever official NBA-authorized fitness guide geared toward helping athletes of all ages-from weekend warriors to worn-out gym rats looking to improve not only their hoops game, but also their overall physical conditioning. Total Fitness the NBA Way includes routines for stretching, cardiofitness, and weight training formulated by NBA team trainers and strength-and-conditioning coaches, as well as helpful tips, nutritional advice, players' anecdotes, behind-the-scenes information, and countless action shots.
