Great stuff. Thanks!

Description

Founded with the belief that what makes a great athlete makes a great person, each week Ken interviews the brightest minds in sports performance, strength and conditioning, mental performance and wellness to understand what today's elite athletes are doing to perform at the highest levels. Through exploration of new concepts and methods he’ll seek to understand how you can apply this to reach your own athletic goals, but more importantly your potential as a person. Because although your playing days might be behind you, don’t you owe it to yourself and those who count on you to approach your role as Partner, Parent and Professional with the same commitment to greatness?
