Who doesn't want to know what it was really like in the NBA bubble and who better to tell us than world renowned PT and total boss Kimberly Caspare! Kim was selected to be one of the PTs who was in the bubble which is just one more accomplishment in her illustrious career. We will talk about what it was like in the bubble, how you can try and treat yourself like an NBA all-star, and also touch on what it's like to be a small business owner during this challenging time Kim will kindly answer on FiRE5: 1. How were you selected for the NBA bubble? 2. What did you learn in the bubble? 3. How do you increase performance while injured? 4. How do you view PTs in the sports medicine profession? 5. Can I take care of my body like an NBA All-star? I met Kim during a course that she hosted at her A+ facility PHLEX Health and Wellness Studio in NYC a couple of years ago. We briefly chatted about how if all the quality small business PT clinic owners teamed up we could help each other out and therefore help out NYC. After that I read her bio and realized I was talking to one of the most accomplished PTs in the United States, no biggie :) When I saw that she was going to be in the bubble I knew that she had to be on the show!
