In the 80th episode of the Historic Performance Podcast, I interview Joshua Bonhotal. Joshua is the Director of Performance for Men's Basketball and Diving at Purdue University. Prior to his arrival at Purdue, Bonhotal spent three years with the Chicago Bulls as an assistant strength & conditioning coach. Bonhotal's duties with the Bulls included coaching athletes through all aspects of the strength & conditioning program, testing and evaluating NBA Draft prospects, and coordinating recovery protocols. In this episode, Joshua talks about his played-led coaching approach, the importance of language and mantras, conditioning for basketball, and how to search for internship opportunities.
