WHY NBA Players KEEP Getting Injured ๐ค #nba #basketball #injury
Gilbert Arenas and Kenyon Martin answer the question to why so many NBA players and stars are getting injured now days. Its lower body and soft tissue injuries that keep riddling these players with problems. Kenyon Martin says its because the new age of the NBA doesn’t workout and try like the used to. That is the problem with the lower body, achilles for jumpers and such. Russell Westbrook never gets hurt like Kenyon Martin says. The Gil’s Arena podcast crew are breaking down the biggest issues facing the athleticism. Nick SwaggyP Young has to take his shot at the end. They aren’t training correctly.
The Arena premieres every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday at 11:30am PT / 2:30pm ET.

Mr. Martin is correct
Nick a ๐ฝโฝ๏ธ
Kmart is right, and heโs still in great shape
Kenyon just be talking lol
At this point, Nick is only on this podcast bc heโs Gilโs boy and neighbor lol. Dude just trolls and hardly ever has shit to really genuinely say
KMart spitting facts on this one
It's the way that better athletes are cutting nowadays.
Just watching Kenyonโs dunks in this videoโฆ..itโs like he jumped, THEN decided how he wanted to dunk it, then executed the dunk.
Kmart was injury prone ๐คฆ๐พโโ๏ธ
DOPE. PORK. LIQ. ๐๐๐๐๐ #big3 #inthatorder #injuryfree
I thought today's players were supposed to be bigger stronger and faster. lol
Man its the sneakers๐๐๐
They skipping leg day
LeBron mustโve changed his workout because heโs been hurt the most as a laker
Last 3 things he mentioned was correct.. that swine man
This generation weak as fuck
They donโt make nothing like before
Cars houses humans
as a former everyday hooper, turned alcoholicโฆi got clean and when i was 4 months sober, i went hard at the target center and snapped my achilles lmao!! ๐
Lift the damn weights!!!!
They all have dipshit trainers who baby them or come up with goofy ass soft workouts so they can keep their jobs
Pork caught a stray outta nowhere ๐
Sometimes its genetic
After K Mart got hurt his first time he learned how to take care of his body and rarely got hurt after that
Left some weights bron don't get hurt
Nick always hating on Kmart and when heโs wrong abt something pouts like a fucking baby haha but heโs still a better guy to have on the couch than that waste of space b Jennings
It was the Smoking Dope part for me ๐๐
Eating Pork ๐๐๐ Facts
This generation is the weakest physically and mentally. Itโs why they play pickup ball. They donโt know how to run plays and their muscles are made of paper
Thatโs my biggest problem. Smoking dope, eating pork,and drinking liquor ๐ธ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
Liquor & pork are a bad combo when you're supposed to be an athlete. That shit is already bad for regular non-athletic motherfuckers like myself but doing that, partying all hours of night, and not putting the work in that keeps you from getting torn ligaments and muscles is ridiculous.
What the hell pork gotta do with it
You just lucky not to get hurt. Because lebron do all that.
Kmart is right. These guys nowadays work on their game but donโt actually train their bodies to handle the explosiveness that comes with it. Theyโre not weightlifting or doing any type of real power movements (especially people like zion ). Lot of stability and isometric work
I mean when he's right
Smoking ๐ฌ ๐ณ, drinking liquor ๐บ ๐ป, eating pork ๐ —Includes fast food and fried food too often. Gotta stop eating this mess as athletes!
They arenโt conditioning like they should itโs simple
โSmokin dope, earin pork and drinking liquor!โ Hey.. โdont ask me to stop being a man..โ
You see how EVERY clip of Russ was damn near 5 years ago lol. He dont have the same explosion cause hes older and for the 1000th time the PACE dudes are playing at plus having to be able to guard multiple positions means u have to be more loose than strong. When you running fast breaks 80% of the time then when the game slow down u have to stop-start every time u run thru 3/4 screens then yes youre gonna get hurt alot. Kenyon would of got hurt more if he had to guard Tim duncan and other PFs faithfully from the 3pt line all the way down to the paint while having to be able to guard a Shaq next game then also guard AI on the switch next game
Iโm with Nick still got hurt simple
They play in a FAST BREAK era not the watch the post player work era๐๐. When Shaq takes up 12 seconds of the shot clock then yea ur not gonna get hurt alot cause 8 other players are watching. Now everyone is moving cause Centers shooting 40% from 3 and plays got better with dudes runnin thru 60 screens a night
THESE NIGGAS DONT LIFT FORREAL THATS WHY, after jordan got amushed by the pistons he hit the weights…amplified his game and rarely injured after
Too much extra movement , 3 dribble drill , passing and shooting NBA teams back then use to have clean plays to run , now players want to dribble so much and strain their muscles
Agreed. Why is this such a problem?
Smokin Dope๐ฅ๐ฑ๐จ
Eatin Pork๐
Drinin Liquor๐ฅ
I NEED THAT T-SHIRT ๐
๐๐คฃ๐ญ๐
I think it's the long term effects of AAU basketball, because we dont see the International players tearing their Achilles
Nick young shows that he was a 20 year old high schooler every time he speaks
