Takeaways
Jordan Kilganon shares his journey as a professional dunker.
Knee pain can be managed with proper training and techniques.
Isometric exercises play a crucial role in injury prevention.
Diet can significantly impact tendon health and performance.
As athletes age, training methods must adapt to prevent injuries.
Different jumping techniques can affect knee stress differently.
Warm-ups are essential to prevent injuries, especially as one ages.
Cool-downs can aid recovery and reduce next-day soreness.
Managing jump volume and intensity is key to longevity in the sport.
Listening to one's body is crucial for effective training. Jordan has never used injections or stem cells for recovery.
He emphasizes conservative management and load management for knee issues.
Plyometrics should be approached with caution, focusing on depth jumps and seated jumps.
Single effort jumps are preferred over multi-effort jumps to avoid knee strain.
Lifting techniques should be adjusted based on individual comfort and pain levels.
Muscle imbalances should be addressed by strengthening weaker muscles rather than focusing solely on balance.
Footwear can significantly impact knee health; personal preference varies.
Pain management during training can involve isometric exercises and adjustments in technique.
Common tendon issues arise from excessive jumping without proper recovery and management.
Weight training is essential for dunkers to prevent injuries and improve performance.
