When Michael Jordan was still playing basketball, he worked very hard. He had a phenomenal work ethic. He was constantly trying to improve.

Kobe also has a very extreme work ethic. He works tirelessly during the off-season.

I hear these types of statements alot. But, they seem a little ambiguous. I mean, when people talk about how hard they work, they do not elaborate or be more specific.


What are examples of Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant working very hard?

For Kobe, there is his 666 program he has during the off-season. It would be at 6 in the morning, 6 hours a day, and 6 days a week.

For Jordan, he would practice hundreds of juimpshots during the off-season.

That is all I got for both of them. What else is there? Does anyone have any idea on what else they do, or can you elaborate on what they already do?

Jordan also had "the breakfast club". which i believe was him, Pippen, and Harper going through a pretty tough workout every morning (even on the road). he said those were tougher than the games.

They bot work hard. The one that comes to mind is Jordan staying in the court after hours of practice. Everyone was done, but he wanted to out work everybody. Like that was his mentality. You have to work hard to be at that level, that's why I think Lebron is an extremely hard worker even though he doesn't get much praise for it.

I believe Kobe is just as hard of a worker as anyone, but to me it feels less natural and more him trying to fit that fantasy of being Michael Jordan. None the less, probably works even harder than anyone because of that.
