Today’s episode features Bobby Whyte, an athletic performance and basketball skill enhancement trainer operating out of Northern New Jersey.

Focusing on developing the complete player athlete, Bobby practices the “Evaluate – Educate -Empower” program he experienced first hand growing up training with now world-renowned trainers and specialists. Bobby has worked with athletes ranging from beginner to NBA/NFL/Overseas Professionals. Most recently, he spent 6 months working in China as the Head Strength Coach for the Guangxi Rhinos.

Bobby’s story is inspirational, overcoming severe struggles in his early 20’s, to turning his life around and becoming a top-level basketball skills and athletic performance trainer. His story is the epitome of the idea of going through the deepest valley in order to reach the highest mountain. Bobby is the exact kind of coach I would have loved to have as a young athlete, he truly cares about the individual person, more than he cares about the results that they achieve (although he is excellent at getting those sporting results).

Bobby is a coach who trains physical development and skills all under one roof, as he is a certified strength coach, as well as an expert developer of basketball abilities. In today’s podcast, Bobby begins with his own inspirational story, and how it has impacted his coaching and investment in the lives of his athletes on a daily basis. In terms of training and technical information, Bobby takes us through his program from general skill to specific skill development, and everything in between. He also gives us his take on the over-specialization of young basketball players and his use of breathing techniques help athletes de-stress. This episode is a chance to step inside the life of a coach who is changing the lives of those he works with.
