In November, New York Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony took part in a four day training camp. The inaugural Nike Pro Training Camp took place at Nike World Headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon and consisted of four intense days of basketball and training. Some of the best athletes represented by Nike Inc. came out to get better. Within that group were players representing Nike Basketball, Jordan Brand and Converse. The training was revolutionary.
The turnout for the inaugural Nike Pro Training Camp did not lack talent. The group consisted of LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony, Chris Paul, Chris Bosh, Udonis Haslem, Omri Casspi, Randy Foye and Manny Harris.
The trainers focused on training the mind, body and eyes of the athletes and focused on each individual as to make custom programs to help push each athlete to the next level.
The camp allowed the trainers to not only look into each athlete and see what they are capable of and how far they can be pushed but also see what technologies can help them in the process.
It is very good to see Carmelo get involved in such a cutting edge training opportunity. He is already an elite athlete but anything that can help keep him at the highest level or thrive for more can only help the New York Knicks going forward.
