This harkens back to when talk shows had truly interesting and inspiring guests, a la Dick Cavett. A lost art. Time Grover was a childhood hero to all of us Bulls fans. The only celebrity trainer of that era. Really, who knows the trainers? Tim stood out, and his obsession with perfection paid off. I am glad Grover has received his due credit over the years. Bravi to the Fallon show for having him on.
Can somebody explain why Tim Grover was not mentioned in the book Kobe wrote? Kobe mentions a lot of people he worked with over the years.. as a "shout out".. but he never mentioned Grover. I don't get this reading both Grovers books and listening to many of his interviews. Not a diss to Grover. His stuff is awesome.
Nope. We don't need to here anthing from this towel boys. Do historians studied what the slaves and whip boys of the gladiator think and felt? Hello no.
Reading it now. Definitely has challenged some of my beliefs, then realized I agree. It’s no joke. Realizing I have a cleaner mentality. My problem is, I have let others steer me away from it because of their insecurities. That’s my fault. No more.
What he didn't mention was that Michael was not allowed to lift weights with his teammates because he was so insanely competitive that coaches and staff were afraid he was going to hurt himself trying to outlift his bigger teammates.
This guy trained the two best ever! Their mentality is unmatched. Kobe outworked everyone and MJ was gifted with incredible athleticism combined with a killer mindset. Although I would love to hear him talk more specifically about how MJ and Kobe trained instead of this. There were good opportunities to talk more about those two and give us something that we don't know since you were on the inside training them.
Tim is a pioneer, and got very very lucky that Michael got curious, why everyone got a letter but him 😅 and after working with Mike, Kobe came in...kept "WINNING"
When MJ was filming Space Jam they set up a court and workout area at the Beverly Hills Hotel and Tim was there all month during the summer keeping MJ in shape.
For those that don’t get it or don’t understand why this guy is important, just know two of the greatest NBA superstars became great because of Grover..
It's amazing that despite him claiming that he reads constantly every photo of him with a book is him at the beginning of the book! Almost like he's a perpetual liar who only cares about his image!
KEYS. FOR LIFE. WORK PLAY. LUV. BUT IF. LUV DOESN'T WORK. LUV. YOU. GOD. N TELL GOD. I WANNA BE. A PROPHET. N SERVE. N. BELIEVE. HE. WILL. MAKE. YOU GREAT. IN THE NAME OF OUR FATHER. 1 Q. 1
Tim grover is great but his reputation is great because of MJ and Kobe. He makes money by pretending to be the "winning guru." There are so many great trainers who are in the shadows, and he is no different from the others. MJ and Kobe, they are very special and Grover is riding on their reputations
I don't believe that at all. No one can say Kobe or MJ weren't great before he trained them. That would be silly. However, they didn't become champions till they started training to overcome what was holding them back. Before anyone balks at that because Kobe had 3 chips let me add context so you understand where I'm coming from. Kobe was not the first option in any of those first few championships. Shaq was the defacto first option in every case and he has the MVP's to prove it. Shaq left and went on to win another ring elsewhere leaving Kobe to become the alpha Laker. Kobe struggled the next few years with that responsibility. He was putting up great stats but the team success was lacking. He took the brunt of the criticism and everyone pretty much wrote him off with the belief that he couldn't win without Shaq. So, in a psychological way he was training to step out of Shaq's shadow and become a champion in his own right. He conditioned himself mentally and physically to take the punishment that Shaq was no longer there to take. For MJ, he had the psychological aspect covered because he was the first option since day one and showed it as a rookie when he had one of the best rookie seasons in NBA history. For him, it was overcoming the beating he physically took from Detroit every time he faced them in the playoffs. He put on the muscle to be strong enough to endure that physical punishment and as he became stronger, the Bulls got closer to winning every successive season that culminated in their sweep of the Pistons in their way to facing the Lakers for their first of six championships. That's just my opinion of course. At least in Kobe's case. It's fact in MJ's case cause he's admitted that in numerous interviews.
@@coachcarlosjohnson "What is your insult based on?" It wasnt an insult, it was a statement and you dont understand training enough to grasp it. Short answer is bullshitting, trainers need to make you feel like they are absolutely NEEDED, that's why he makes up bullshit stories about counting how many steps Jordan took and trained him in a specific way, he's either an idiot and clueless or lying. That's gaslighting that those people do to show you they know more than you and that's why they get the results they do. Even if he knew that it shouldnt affect how Jordan trains for a bunch of reasons I wouldnt get into. Either way a lot of actors do this bullshit too, "I workout 4 times a day to look like this" No, they dont, you can see Mr Olympia competitors dont do that, let alone actors. Doing that wouldnt give you any additional benefit but it sounds cool to the public and differentiates the person saying it from the rest, and it's never true.
He is a GOAT trainer he deserves more respect and recognition

Mj trained harder and that’s a fact
@mannyneva1760 That's not facts 😂 ask Phil Jackson and Tim Grover
@@ArmandoKozomara Kobe trained more..not harder my guy and that’s a fact
@@mannyneva1760 that's so dumb. Kobe didn't have Jordan's athleticism. He had to work more to get to that level
@@ArmandoKozomara dummy..working more doesn’t mean work harder

Luck is opportunity meets preparations. ! He was prepared to take that luck !
reading relentless now its sick!
I love that his suit matches the font color on his book. Swank.
Legend!
Genius.
Tim G is the 🐐
That awkward no handshake handshake at the very beginning though lol
It would be nice if he talked about his Punjabi Sikh heritage.
When MJ was filming Space Jam they set up a court and workout area at the Beverly Hills Hotel and Tim was there all month during the summer keeping MJ in shape.
To the person reading this, even though I don't know you. I wish you the best of what life has to offer 🙏 🙌 😊❤

Patrick Fischler should play Tim Grover in a movie or biopic
He happened to be the right guy to work with legendary athletes
This is the guy that RJ Barrett has to train with in the off-season, along with Paul Pierce and Tony Allen.
Bron trained the Top 3 SG's of all time.
Bro*
I wish though that he’d mention what needs to be done whenever we fall off the wagon, which is gonna be a lot for a lot of us.
Good interview. Too bad the crowd was snoozing.
For those that don’t get it or don’t understand why this guy is important, just know two of the greatest NBA superstars became great because of Grover..
1. MJ
2. Kobe
3. DWade
This guy knows his stuff
There are more legends on his resume that he was coached
Interesting, Unique, Audibley Pleasing Enunciation, Elocution, and Diction
Bro this the most subtle Indian I’ve ever seen haha
For a trainer to be a Tonight Show guest says something.
now players would sit out back to back games to stay strong 😂
My first job I also made $3.35 an hour back in 1989
No idea he was Indian
The sexy Indian version of Rick Fox yes I said it.
1. doctor
2. doctorate
KOBE🏆24
Mj and Kobe just diffrent.
sounds amazing. lebron should pretend to read it 😂
It's amazing that despite him claiming that he reads constantly every photo of him with a book is him at the beginning of the book! Almost like he's a perpetual liar who only cares about his image!
His name is Tim SINGH Grover. The middle name matters.

Mj told Tim you better fkn keep up
Jimmy should've gotten Life Coach advice from him instead....
He could do that off air if he wants to. Coulda already done it
I didn’t know this guy was Indian

Hasta en eso Kobe copió a Jordan.
Eran hermanos to esa gente su papa conocia a jordan desde antes esa gente es de la misma frat
Jordan is the real GOAT and Kobe is better than Lebron
Punjabi training goats
How is an Indian named Tim Grover?
Hi Name is Tim Singh Grover , a Punjabi.
This guy likes winning huh
The most gifted athlete he has ever trained was Charles Barkley.
Yeah, I was hoping he'd talk about that
First
Sorry but his tie does not go with that suit.
I bet he's the only personal trainer to be a multi millionaire
Jimmy why won’t you mention Britney’s book? Or all crap ur bff has put her through the years!
Yeah you trained Kobe that's he only lasted 12 years and was done. And Jordan rested 4 years in between championship but was old at 38.
The vast majority of players throughout all eras of the NBA has played less than them in their careers.
Tim grover is great but his reputation is great because of MJ and Kobe. He makes money by pretending to be the "winning guru." There are so many great trainers who are in the shadows, and he is no different from the others. MJ and Kobe, they are very special and Grover is riding on their reputations

A charismatic con artist like most celebrity trainers.
go read his book, then go back to your comment. You will want to slap yourself.
@@kenvasquezofficialnice😂
If you think he’s a con artist then you are saying Jordan and Kobe were conable idiots
Based on what. It blows my mind when people just make insults and accusations, but don’t provide any comments. What is your insult based on?
