When the Detroit Pistons acquired Tobias Harris before the trade deadline last season, the Pistons organization knew they were getting someone special, but his athletic talent seems to go a little bit unnoticed.

At 24 years old, Tobias Harris provides some raw talent to the already young, talented, roster that they produce this season. He is versatile, athletic, and able to create shots in a way not too many other players of his size can.
Tobias Harris teamed up with FreshFocusSports.com to produce the video, and it looked like a strenuous day for Harris. As you can see in the video it all starts out with a breakfast in his home area of Long Island, NY. After a basketball workout for a few hours, he finishes off his workout with boxing. This is a different way to end a workout for most athletes. Athletes that require a lot of cardiovascular work, tend to start with a boxing or agility type of workout before they begin there true workout.
You can also see that Harris is doing a full body workout in the weight room. Follow this type of workout next time you are trying to improve your conditioning for basketball season.

Overall, this will keep your body’s heart rate up throughout the whole workout, which is like your heart rate on the basketball court for minutes at a time.
