I’m not totally against Ca$h App and Venmo, I just don’t think that should be a basketball trainers main payment acceptance method.

What would you go back and change to make you a better player? Your scholastic playing days could be over, but maybe we can implement them in our business instead.

I love Jalen Brunson’s pace. It reminded me of the pace for our industry, and performing great in our current quarter while preparing for the next. They’ll be here before we know it.

Kids are out of school or almost out of school. Have you prepared for that?

It’s Deload week in our basketball performance training program. Which made me think of Parkinson’s Law. Our work contracts or expands based on the time that we allotted.

Watch this short video of Coach Myson Jones as he gives some quick thoughts on skills c...

Today is Finance Friday, but I also want to talk about fulfillment, too.

Seasonality is real. The game is a game full of runs. Hopefully you’re making a good run approaching peak season.

Someone asked me “How do I know when it’s time to train full-time?” I didn’t do it the right way, but I have some thoughts as to how I would do it now if I were planning on quitting my job to train full-time. Hopefully this helps.
