Pelle and I have been working and had off-season workouts for a couple of years running. Knowing this, I was contacted by Skuru IK to be one of the trainers at their camp. So we planned for Pelle to join us for a surprise interactive workout to show the campers how we train during the summers. This to show and hopefully inspire the kids in how a scientifically oriented and player optimizing workout looks and how one could tailor that concept to themself. I constructed the interactive workout with a lecture format which can be seen in the video below. We had a great time welcoming back the newly drafted NBA-player and joining him was my other clients Melwin Pantzar (who also had a summer league stint) and Denzel Andersson (professional basketball player’s).

This interactive workout also followed two practices and a lecture I had held two days before for the club.

Melwin Pantzar had a season in the Spanish ACB-league. This was the first season back in the ACB after his MVP-season in Leb Oro, the Spanish second league. We had completely set our sights on preparing our summer and continuing his development. Melwin’s agent informed him about the invitation to play in the California Classic Summer League for The Sacramento Kings, truly an amazing opportunity! This meant that we would have to start preparing and increasing the intensity earlier than initially planned. These situations can be more difficult to properly manage, because the wear and tear of the season accumulates a lot of fatigue. To navigate a situation like this, we also have to consider the excitement that comes with another opportunity, which will most likely impact one’s ability to rest. In this YouTube-video we show you how we constructed our workouts and what we focused on to optimize his ability to perform at the California Classic.

The philosophical construct of the “shonen” genre in manga is something that speaks to a lot of individuals ranging large spectra of ages and dynamics. The reason why these stories are so compelling and philosophically relevant is because it is oriented around a protagonist’s road to overcome hardship and reach goals and happiness. The hardship is usually introduced through many different aspects, but the light and comedic tones are more ubiquitous in the storytelling. It gives for realistic views of what life really entails, the good and the bad, and it does not sugarcoat or avoid difficult, tough and melancholic situations and sentiments. Hardship is real, as well as pure joy and happiness. One might see these functions of a continuum and being each other’s extreme points, but they do not necessarily have to be dichotomous. In fact storytelling is complex and highly philosophical, something that manga and anime captures beautifully. With that said, many of these shonen stories have a training arc that might or might not be very approximating reality. Therefore this lecture was of great fun, to be able to speak to young people as well as people my own age regarding how we can use anime to inspire scientifically oriented exercise.
