"my thing is to get into the gym, and get out. No need to be in the gym, 3-4-5 hours, 45 minutes to an hour get it done"

WOW REALLY? Its VERY sad when someone who has the ability that he has doesnt maximize his talents. Whats the line from a Bronx Tale? Saddest thing is wasted talent? smh at melo's comments

I'm sure melo has put in 10 times more work on his game than a lot of guys in this league. Smh. I guess he should work hard like Lin and forget how to go left.

Knocks fans are the worst. You guys deserve to lose.

didnt kobe use to workout 6 hrs a day

Lots of lifters stand by the notion you should spend NO MORE than 1 hour a day at the gym. Get in, do work, leave. You don't need to do anymore if you do your lifts right. But everyone on ISH is a goddamn bro scientist personal trainer i'm sure.

[Story Up]

It's better to workout 1 hour intensely then 3 slacking off, but that's not what Melo means. He IS a waste of talent.

[LJJ]

Like Carmelo Anthony only goes to the gym a single hour but "works really hard".


NBA SF who is lazy as shit and eats fried chicken all day every day:


NBA SF who is on a diet and really works the gym:


You tell me how hard Carmelo works judging from those pictures. And I don't care if it's the off season. You think Corey Maggette looks like a fat piece of shit in the off season? You think Ray Allen looks like a piece of shit? Anthony just isn't a professional, he lives and breathes immaturity.

Yeah, I'm a lifter and that is common knowledge amongst us. Cortisol builds up after an hour of lifting and there are diminishing returns. Long workouts are not good for MUSCLE MASS. But this isn't weightlifting guy. Your goals as a basketball player are entirely different than a weightlifter. Your cardio has to be top notch and you are not attempting to achieve mass. There is a huge difference between weightlifting and basketball practice.

True.

But by "gym", he doesn't mean gym for bodybuilders. He means gym as in basketball gym.

You gotta spend more than an hour shooting, drills, dribbling, etc.

maybe he means only this season because you need your rest

that vid was from when he was a nugget

Yup. Kobe's 666 workout killed me when I tried that shit one summer in HS, but I was a beast the next year lol.

I don't mean to get repetitive, but I'm wondering if my last question was lost in my post.

How do you guys think a three hour practice session broke down for a guy like Larry Bird? As in, precisely how were those 180 basketball minutes filled?

[emaugust]

Is he Ill and ballashotcalla are absolutely right. I misread that - thanks for clearing that up!
