Jaylen Brown, who was red hot in the NBA Finals, is taking his summer workouts to new depths.
A Celtics team video of Brown’s weight-and-resistance training regimen in the deep end of a pool has gone viral.
Not only is swimming a great workout, it’s also easy on your body. I’ll be right back because, once again, Brown is leading by example. (I’d skip the weights, he’s a professional and had someone watching, as you can see in this video.)
👀 JB’s summer workouts are no joke

But … swimming can help your arthritis, mental health, decrease a disability, and is one heck of an aerobic physical activity, says the CDC.
“Swimmers have about half the risk of death compared with inactive people,” the CDC adds with a footnote.
It’s a heart-healthy habit and worth learning how to swim from a professional swimming instructor. The Red Cross is a great place to start if you want to connect with a swim coach.
Plus, with this heat wave sticking around, swimming will also cool you off.
I’m heading over to Castle Island, stay cool and safe and “GO JAYLEN!”
