CARMELO ANTHONYS TRAINING PROGRAM

In 2003, as a freshman at Syracuse University, Anthony led his team to the NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship, and then went on to be drafted #3 by the Denver Nuggets. The versatile 6’ 8” forward has been nothing less than spectacular in his professional career, and has proven to be one of the most consistent offensive forces in the game.
