Houston Rockets guard Jeremy Lin and Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Travis Ishikawa train at SPARTA in the San Francisco Bay Area. The two high profile athletes tell you why they train so hard to be where they are today. Before everyone knew his name, Jeremy Lin was investing in himself by training at SPARTA during the 2011 NBA lockout. (see Jeremy Lin in the offseason last year.) He’s back at SPARTA this off-season, getting ready to show what he can do in a full season. (watch Jeremy Lin in the offseason episode 2). Meanwhile, Travis Ishikawa improves his hitting and conditioning at the facility. These guys definitely work out.
