New York Knicks Star Chooses Insane Workout Routine, Becomes an Inspiration to Youngsters

“I understand that the grind doesn’t stop. You have to always play hard. You always have to bring your hard hat,” adhering to this belief, basketball star Taj Gibson works towards being the best both physically and in his beloved arena. Following suit, as the basketball prodigy joined forces with the New York Knicks, he has been following a stringent routine to keep himself healthy and in staunch shape to trounce the opponent.

Taj Gibson is a New York Knicks Big Man who plays the center position. While this role focuses more on strength and hardiness, Gibson is also quick on his feet and looks in really great shape. A social media post recently leaked the insane workout routine Gibson follows. In fact, the 6’9” player follows this routine in combination with his basketball drills.

Renowned track and field podcaster Chris Chavez tweeted a video of Gibson playing in a match. The video also captured the commentary going on. Interestingly, a female commentator praised the New York Knicks center for his fitness. She said, “More on Taj Gibson. Who knew he’s a runner, guys?”

She further said, “So I asked him what he’s been doing to stay in shape. He told me working out is in my DNA. But what he’s been doing, he’s been running from the Brooklyn Bridge to the Manhattan Bridge and then running back into Brooklyn. You guys, that’s almost six miles.”

Mentioning additional details of his mini marathon workout, the commentator said, “He was doing that two times a week at 7:00 AM when he said it was peaceful and quiet on the bridges. That’s including shooting and pick-up games and all the other lifting and working out that he’s doing. So, no wonder he’s in such great shape.”
