What It Takes: A Nike Basketball Podcast

by

Join us each week as hosts Bree Green and Jacques Slade explore “what it takes” to survive the gauntlet of the NBA playoffs through the unique perspective and access of Nike. Tune in as Jacques and Bree break down each series, speak to special guests (like Scottie Pippen), and reward NikePlus members with exclusive content and product. Jacques and Bree speak with Mike Mancias, trainer to the NBA elite, about his inside perspective on training, what it takes to keep an athlete in peak condition during the postseason, and how an athlete’s mental training is just as important as their physical training.
