Jordan's 5AM Breakfast Club
Share
Shaan tells a story about how Michael Jordan's early morning workouts turned into a team-wide practice that led to success.
"Michael Jordan used to work out at 5am or 6am and he called it the Breakfast Club. He was basically just doing it alone, and then some guy saw him walking through the hotel - some guy came in back from partying and saw Michael Jordan going to the gym. He's like 'What are you doing Mike?' and Jordan's like 'Oh yeah, I work out every day at 5am, you should come be here tomorrow.'
Then the guy came, and slowly but surely the whole team ended up going to the Breakfast Club. They had a great year - they won the championship that year."
