You're listening to the PJF podcast, a show dedicated to decoding elite sports performance and fitness.

I'm Paul Fabrets, and I'm an NBA Strength and Conditioning and Performance Trainer.

If you want to become superhuman, take your fitness and take your sports performance to the next level.

This is the podcast for you.

Let's do it.

All right, what's up, my man? We got Drew Hanlon in the building, world-renowned skills

trainer from Pierce, thanks for being here, Drew. Yeah, no doubt. I'm excited to join you.

Yes, sir. So Drew and I met through Adidas, what was that, probably five years ago.

So I knew about your stuff forever. And then Adidas brought all the trainers together.

And we all finally got to link, pick each other's brain. And then we've been real close since then.

Work with a lot of the same players now. So Drew and I are real close.

I wanted to, I wanted to be a referee back in high school because referees made $18 an hour.

manager. He wouldn't return my emails, wouldn't return my phone. I went up to the facility.

He wasn't there, but his office was unlocked. And so I grabbed a sticky, I walked in his office.

I didn't really know business etiquette at the time. And I grabbed a sticky, I walked in his office. I didn't really know business etiquette at the time.
