Learning from LeBron James in-season training ✔️ He lifts ON game days (yes, you heard correctly) ✔️ He focuses on full body lifts (gives scheduling flexibility) ✔️ He has set rules to help him decide WHEN to lift based on game schedule ✔️ He does something gym related daily

Tomorrow morning will be the start of my 9th summer at Basehor-Linwood. My family and I are so blessed to be a part of this community! I am so excited to get back to work with the students in our district!! #TBW

We had a great ending for Week 3 of our summer program. Our students have been putting in a lot of work and I’m excited to continue to see them improve. #TBW
