Jimmy Butler: Daily Routine

From medicine ball drills to dominoes, Jimmy Butler’s daily rhythm is built on discipline, recovery, and outworking absolutely everyone.

When it comes to athletes with unmatched drive and determination, the NBA has long been a breeding ground for some of the hardest workers in sports. From Michael Jordan’s legendary “Breakfast Club” workouts to LeBron James’ unwavering commitment to longevity, and the late, great Kobe Bryant’s famed work ethic, the league has always been overflowing with players who have made their mark through sheer willpower and relentless effort.

And then there’s Jimmy Butler, the Miami Heat Small Forward who takes the term work ethic to the next level. Just ask the people who the NBA player works with and they’ll tell you themselves. “He has a Hall of Fame work ethic,” Butler’s coach Erik Spoelstra once told Business Insider. “That’s not something of myth. That’s something that’s well earned and it’s real.”
