Jayson Tatum with an Ojeleye-like physique could be scary

 Building physiques for close to 30 years via my business, Advanced Fitness Systems, forces me to temper expectations of Jayson Tatum this season with his newly-acquired - and jacked - body. Photos can lie, and I will wait to see what his listed weight is heading into training camp. But with that aside, Jayson with a physique resembling that of former-Celtic, Semi Ojeleye, would be scary for the rest of the League.


 Last season, Tatum was listed at 6'8" and 210 pounds. An additional 10 pounds of muscle would put him at 220, and I doubt we would see any more than that. I would expect a weigh-in between 215 and 218 pounds. That may be enough because anyone that strength trains on a regular basis knows that strength arrives before muscle, and additional strength would allow Jayson to strongly finish at the rim, either scoring the hoop or picking up fouls and getting to the line more often.

Don't expect to see the Tatum in the photo above on the parquet this season. Tanning, body oil and photo sessions while pumped during exercise can be deceiving, but I am excited to see if Jayson comes into camp lean, strong and jacked. Having already labeled him as a transcendental player, a more-muscular, stronger version of Jayson Tatum could make him nearly unstoppable.

Rules of survival: When search-and-rescue turns into body recovery

By
 How the Hell did this happen? Two days after 19-year-old Emily Sotelo was supposedly dropped off in Franconia Notch (NH) at roughly 5:00 AM ET, Sunday, November 20, 2022 by her mother, to hike several mountains alone, the search continues for the young lady. Photo by Linda Lane The information from news agencies indicated that Emily started hiking the trails while it was still dark. She was supposedly wearing only sneakers, a coat and workout pants. I can persona;ly attest that the weather in the area was very cold with high wind speeds, and gaining elevation on the trails would only add to the horrendous conditions. Ms. Sotelo was reportedly a seasoned hiker, but had little or no experience hiking in winter. At the peaks, temperatures on that Sunday dropped to zero degrees with a wind chill of minus-30 degrees. It is beyond my comprehension to imagine a hiker-of-experience tackling that kind of travel - in extreme weather - with only basic clothes and few (or no) supplies. I have hik

As a 16-year old , he quickly transitioned from: Minor thefts and breaking into homes To: Taunting and threatening a father and his two daughters as an unseen
