LeBron James has worked on his body for years
James’ former teammate and close friend Chris Bosh went on the ‘Club Shay Shay’ podcast. About James’ still playing at this level, Bosh attributed it to his early years of working on his body.
“He put so much into his body so early. Everybody is just now being able to see the benefits that he’s reaping. He’s put in so much work. He was stretching twice a day, working with a trainer when he was in his early 20s. I remember seeing him, and he has a guy that stretches him, and they’re doing tissue work. Even if I wanted to do it, I don’t know where to start. Just his foresight back then, to take care of his body and do the right things and invest in himself.

“Now he’s reaping the benefits, now he can combine the drive and physically being able to do it and compete for championships. Jordan and Kobe were playing well at 36, and he’s 35, so he’s looking to play like this till at least 37 and then see where he’s at after that. He’s put the time and work in, he’s made the sacrifices to keep playing ball at the level.”
James and Bosh played together for four years in the Miami Heat, alongside close friend Dwyane Wade. They were dubbed ‘The Big 3’ and went on to four NBA Finals and win two NBA Championships. LeBron James won League and Finals MVP for both those championship seasons.
