LeBron James is an elite athlete. The man works extremely hard to keep his physique and athleticism at the highest level. At 35 years of age, James is still playing some of his best basketball.
Many analysts credit James’ continued excellence to his commitment to his body. People know how much James invests in his body, and it clearly pays off. Reports suggest that James spends up to $1.5 million yearly on his body in order to continue playing at the highest level at his advanced age.
James has continued to show that age is just a number for him after he and the Los Angeles Lakers won their 17th NBA Championship. For his high-quality play in the NBA Finals, James was awarded the honor of Finals MVP.

Even his teammates are in awe of how he still keeps going when his younger colleagues are fatigued.

Green said, “How he takes care of his body makes him superhuman to me. Because at the age he’s at, and how effective and healthy he stays. He plays every game, we might get a game off during the regular season. He plays at a high level, no injuries and wakes up the next day with a bounce, spritely… He’s got all this energy. “You’re 35, I’m 33 and I’m like my body, I’m ready to get out of here”. He just keeps going, even 17 seasons, 11-12 for me obviously I did a year in college. He always finds a way to take care of his body and have his body ready. Mentally he’s always getting better, he’s always studying the game, he’s always getting smarter. But physically he is making sure his body is right and healthy. Shoutout to all his trainers, that took care of us and him this year.”
LeBron James doesn’t look like he is slowing down anytime soon, and he will be looking to run it back next season with fellow Lakers Anthony Davis and Danny Green. Given the way he has been playing, no one would be surprised if he wins another championship next season.
