Sports Science Behind Jeremy Lin’s Breakout Performance

February 22nd, 2012 by Foxy

Jeremy Lin’s performance has been amazing. It is always fun to see someone succeed who wasn’t expected to do so well.d Jeremy Lin was waived by two teams and now has lead the Nicks to an amazing performance the last 10 games for the New York Knicks in the NBA. It will be fun to see how it continues.

The video gives a very cursory overview of some of the training Jeremy Lin did between basketball seasons.

A few decades ago training was largely about learning and working on a few fundamentals and playing. In the last few decades the science behind athletics has created a huge change in preparation for sports at high levels, as we have written about previously: Physicist Swimming Revolution, Science of the High Jump, Sports Engineering @ MIT, Engineering A Golf Swing, Static Stretching Decreases Muscle Strength

    I hope he can keep it up. It’s a fantastic tale so far. I’m sure the top point guards in the league will beat him now, but he is young and will keep improving. He is like John Stockton and have a long career ahead of him. I need to catch up on the games, I’ve only seen the news so far.
