[MUSIC PLAYING] Hey, everybody. Welcome again to a different episode of Life Time Talks. I’m Jamie Martin.

And I’m David Freeman.

And we’re actually excited at present for our dialog with Ben Johns. He’s an American skilled pickleball participant, ranked primary on the earth for doubles, blended doubles, and singles, by the Professional Pickleball Affiliation, in addition to by the World Pickleball Rankings and World Pickleball Rankings. He first began taking part in pickleball again in 2016 on the age of 17 and he quickly after began competing. He’s since received now greater than 50 gold medals to this point in his skilled profession, 11 of that are triple crowns. Ben, thanks a lot for being right here with us.

Thanks guys for having me. Trying ahead to it.

Yeah, Ben. So we’re tremendous excited to have you ever on our LT Talks and in addition, to be featured on our upcoming problem of Expertise Life. So thanks once more a lot for approaching. How are you doing at present?

I’ve by no means been higher. Really at present is launch day for me for switching major sponsors. So it’s been a really busy morning and we’re simply going full steam forward I suppose proper on to this.

I find it irresistible. I find it irresistible. So Jamie gave us a little bit little bit of the background. So let’s set that stage proper now. Take us again to your teenage years if you found pickleball. When and the place did you uncover the game, and what about it appealed to you.

Yeah, I found it close to Naples, Florida, Southwest Florida. And I used to be a tennis and desk tennis participant. And the tennis courts I skilled out with my brother on the time have been proper subsequent to pickleball courts that had been just lately constructed. And I walked by a few occasions, I noticed it performed. It seemed like enjoyable however I didn’t even know what it was or I didn’t know sufficient about it to be like oh, I need to go play that.

However I noticed it sufficient occasions the place ultimately I used to be similar to, I’ll give this sport a strive. Why not? It looks as if I can have enjoyable with it a few occasions. Play with some mates perhaps. And so I went out the primary time and I used to be like, this sport is basically enjoyable. Like simply instantly. It was tremendous fascinating to me that it was like a mix of tennis and desk tennis, proper in between the 2, my two major background sports activities.

And what attracted the game to me initially was that mixture between the 2 I’m conversant in. And in addition simply the brand new technique. Like I’m at all times very keen on figuring a brand new sport or sport out. And it was very clear, very early that I used to be good when it comes to eye hand coordination and motion from tennis and all that, however I didn’t know what to do. I had no concept what I used to be doing on the court docket.

So figuring that out was an on the spot attraction to me. And it simply appeared like the entire group and everybody I performed with was so welcoming they usually have been all so enjoyable and good. It’s only a very participating world as anybody who performs quickly finds out.

Completely. So inform us a little bit bit about that transition from when this grew to become a only for enjoyable for you sport, if you determined to actually pursue it, and ultimately to go professional with it.

Yeah, no, there’s positively a pair key moments. It’s additionally fairly gradual although. It seeped into my life and, one second I used to be like, it’s a enjoyable sport. After which by some means a few years later I’m similar to gosh, I don’t even suppose I’m going to make use of my diploma. So it was very fascinating the way it simply obtained into my life. Similar to most individuals they suppose they’re simply doing a pastime after which out of the blue it’s their full on dependancy.

However for me, my first event ever I simply occurred to dwell very near the primary US Open ever in 2016, it was like half an hour away. In order that was my first event. Individuals have been like oh, you’re fairly good. It is best to play. It’ll be a historic expertise for everyone going, so I used to be like I’ll play, positive why not. I didn’t understand how good I used to be so I used to be similar to, I’m going to enroll in professional. Let me play professional only for the enjoyable of it.

And if I lose actually badly that’s high-quality, I’ll nonetheless have the ability to say I did it. And I ended up getting fifth in that, so I used to be like I suppose I’m fairly good at this sport. And it made me need to hold taking part in. However as a result of I went again to Maryland later that 12 months away from Florida the place there’s not a whole lot of pickleball, I didn’t get to play quite a bit. I performed two extra tournaments that entire 12 months. And it was nonetheless enjoyable to me. Didn’t actually care that a lot, it was only a pastime.

After which coming again in 2017, again to Florida once more, I used to be taking part in like day-after-day. I actually wished to do nicely and I loved it quite a bit, however nonetheless wasn’t considering of it critically as like an expert sport or something like that. However ended up being that I got here again one 12 months later and I received the 2017 US Open. In order that was one of many key moments the place I used to be similar to, I suppose I’m fairly good at this sport and perhaps I ought to hold taking part in as a result of it’s a whole lot of enjoyable.

And I did it for the remainder of the 12 months. After which that fall I went to the College of Maryland as a freshman however I knew I wished to maintain taking part in concurrently. And I’d say the opposite key second for me that turned it into hey, this could possibly be a profession for me somewhat than simply on the facet simultaneous factor, is once I signed with Franklin Sports activities in 2019. They have been the primary model to get into pickleball and sponsoring athletes that wasn’t a pickleball model. They have been an exterior model, they have been in MLD, NHL.

So that they wished to sponsor me, and on the time that was revolutionary for the game and for me. So I used to be similar to, if that is taking place who is aware of what’ll occur within the subsequent couple of years. And this could possibly be a really viable skilled profession. And it appeared like a whole lot of enjoyable to me nonetheless, so I used to be like, why not?

Like it. Breaking down partitions, proper? I really like that. So we take a minute to truly discuss concerning the sport of pickleball itself. It’s one of many quickest rising sports activities in America. And the adoption charge is wild. So a whole lot of occasions individuals would possibly put it in a field of claiming there’s a sure age group that this caters to, however because it has such a excessive adoption charge, are you able to inform us, who’s pickleball for?

Yeah, no, completely. That’s an ideal query actually. And that’s that the actual attraction to it isn’t that it’s a sport for previous individuals, it simply occurred that I used to be in a microcosm that very a lot loved it. The actually cool factor about it that I discover that’s the reason it applies to all individuals as nicely is as a result of it’s a sport for completely anyone and all people. I’ve seen five-year-olds play and revel in it, I’ve seen 90-year-olds play and revel in it. Guys, women, it’s a reasonably even distribution there. Socioeconomic standing, tradition.

It simply doesn’t matter. I’ve seen all people and anyone play with one another. And as quickly as you get on that court docket you’re one and the identical. You’re introduced collectively by the game you want taking part in. That’s additionally why I feel it’s an enormous factor with celebrities. Like you could have Leonardo DiCaprio taking part in, he’s obtained a court docket at his home. So many different celebrities that I simply really feel prefer it’s so engaging since you may not have the ability to duke it out on the tv set or directing or producing, however if you get on the pickleball court docket it’s like oh, it’s sport time. We need to compete on this.

So it may be aggressive, it may be enjoyable, and it may be for completely anyone. And I really feel like that’s why I’ve met extra distinctive and fascinating individuals in pickleball than I’ve in another side of my life. There’s simply so many distinctive individuals, as a result of anyone performs it. So if you happen to ever suppose that sport’s not for you, I imply I encourage to vary. I feel if you happen to don’t like sports activities, pickleball is perhaps only one you’ll.

Nicely, that’s one thing we hold listening to. And simply in full disclosure clearly, we’re with Lifetime, that is the Lifetime Talks podcast that’s a spotlight for our group proper now. And we hold listening to that simply the people who find themselves getting concerned within the progress of it inside our group. So I do know Ben, you’ve performed up right here in Lakeville, Minnesota the place I’m at, and competed in tournaments. I imply the explosion of tournaments and seeing who’s doing this. I imply, I’m simply amazed every time I see photographs on our stream about who’s all on the market. It actually is for everybody.

It’s wild. Not solely is it for everyone, however most individuals that play, it’s like an dependancy. They get fanatical about it they usually don’t need to cease taking part in. And that’s simply so superior to see. As a result of it’s just like the healthiest dependancy I’ve ever seen. Individuals are getting train, they’re having fun with one thing, they do it with different individuals. There’s simply nothing dangerous about it. I imply it may even be therapeutic. The variety of those who have had accidents in different sports activities and get to play pickleball as like a revamping their physique, after which they by no means go away it it’s simply loopy. It’s simply good for actually each scenario I’ve ever seen.

That’s superior. OK. So we need to discuss a little bit bit too about, you could have in six years because you picked it up for enjoyable and now you’ve grown into being the primary participant, you’ve obtained these triple crowns, you’re a primary participant in these varied completely different divisions, what makes you a very good pickleball participant. Like why is that this the game for you.

Yeah. I’d say I imply it’s positively a mixture of issues. The primary I’d should credit score is certainly the background sports activities. So at the moment nearly all the highest rating gamers are former tennis gamers, often D1 or higher, some former skilled ATP, WTA, that type of factor. And I wasn’t that stage, my brother was, he was an ATP participant. However I used to be a reasonably good tennis participant however I used to be additionally a reasonably good desk tennis participant. So I really feel like that mixture actually presents a whole lot of issues as a result of anyone can see wanting on the court docket that there’s similarities to each.

So having each background sports activities actually helps. However I’d say the extra key factor, greater than the rest in all probability, is that pickleball is what I name an unsolved sport. Like everybody’s nonetheless very a lot determining what are the nice issues to do. Like how do you play the game at its optimum? And no one’s actually figured that out. It’s at the moment growing simply 12 months to 12 months. You see completely different methods gamers selecting up various things and we’re all studying from one another.

And one of many issues I’ve at all times stated primarily based on not simply pickleball however in any space actually, is simply experiment and be taught issues primarily based on attempting new issues. So I suppose I hold including new issues and getting higher principally due to that.

Yeah you stated one thing earlier that’s an oxymoron so far as wholesome addictions so I’m at all times curious, being a excessive efficiency athlete, we do dedicate a whole lot of our time and power to what it’s that we’re keen about inside our craft. So I’ve to ask the query and I’m guaranteeing our viewers and our listeners need to know this reply, how do you discover the steadiness to have the ability to loosen up and unwind and in addition find time for different issues which are essential in life too.

Yeah, that’s an fascinating query. I really feel prefer it’s one I’m nonetheless engaged on. I can’t discover a excellent steadiness but, perhaps I by no means will. Nevertheless it’s actually all in what makes you content. I get happiness out of striving for one thing, doing the very best I can out of it. And I feel to be the very best at one thing like this it’s not 100% work onerous on a regular basis. I perform at full 100% capability and efficiency if I do dedicate a while to different issues.

And for me that’s not essentially similar to leisure, however I’ve a pair companies that I run. And to be like doing stuff like that may even be simply altering my thoughts from one mindset to the opposite is enjoyable. Doing a exercise though it looks as if work and perhaps it’s for pickleball, that may be enjoyable to me. Like individuals have hobbies that aren’t particularly for leisure or happiness however by some means they do make you content anyway simply because they’re completely different.

So for me I’d say selection is large and as soon as once more, experimenting with completely different routines and several types of time administration and that type of factor helps me to determine what makes me glad and nonetheless is ready to get me to carry out at my high and greatest.

So that you’ve talked about this now, you could have these two companies that you just’re targeted on, you’re additionally ending your diploma in engineering, and I had seen the replace at present about your new sponsorships and all of this and your plans going ahead. So like with all these issues in thoughts ending up your diploma, these different companies, inform us a little bit bit about these endeavors and what’s subsequent for you with these.

Positive, yeah. So getting my diploma has at all times been essential to me. I do know at this level that once I graduate I’m not going to be utilizing it immediately. However actually even earlier than pickleball I by no means thought I used to be going to be a 9:00 to five:00 particular person. I at all times wished to run my very own enterprise and apply the issues I discovered personally somewhat than for any individual else. In order that’s not stunning to me that I’m doing this now, it’s simply humorous that pickleball performed such a big function in it.

So, yeah, I’ll get my Supplies Engineering diploma and I hope to make use of that down the highway, however perhaps it’s with paddles, perhaps it’s with one thing else. However I’m positive I’ll apply it by some means. Trying ahead to graduating, it’s been a protracted highway. After which different firms, principally these they’re doing nicely and I actually like operating them. I don’t know in the event that they’ll develop into like a major enterprise for me or something, however they’re actually enjoyable to run concurrently with the skilled pickleball profession. However the skilled facet, the efficiency and staying at tip high efficiency form goes to be my major focus any more mainly till that adjustments.

Ben, once I hear you discuss it simply clearly stands out. Ben Johns is a person with a plan.

[LAUGHTER]

It goes again to love early influences. And I’m curious, we’re curious so far as just like the function fashions and the teachings that you just be taught from these people and the way that affect has carried over to who you’re at present. So are you able to share a little bit bit about that background of Ben Johns the person that you’re at present and proceed to evolve to develop into. What set the muse for you?

Yeah. Clearly I suppose it’s a cliche, lots of people say it however you need to credit score dad and mom first. My dad and mom are each wonderful individuals. They gave me so many alternatives in each method. They’ve inspired me by way of faculty, by way of pickleball, by way of any sports activities, by way of no sports activities. No matter I wished to do they’ve at all times been there and like hey, no matter you need, no matter you want, we’re right here for you.

And I feel they’re to credit score for independence and desirous to be good at something actually. I’m positively the place I’m at present due to them. And positively my older brother. He was my largest function mannequin when it comes to working onerous and being good at one thing. He’s six years older so I noticed him grind at skilled tennis and he beloved it a lot, did such a superb job simply working onerous at it. He can be my very best function mannequin as a sportsman.

And now I’m simply fortunate I get to be on the identical facet of the court docket with him. So we by no means had a possibility to play tennis collectively as a result of six years older that’s an excessive amount of if you’re youthful. However at pickleball now that we’re each 22, 28 or 23, 29 now, we get to be on the identical facet of the court docket and that’s simply I couldn’t ask for a extra lucky sport. I’m simply fortunate to have discovered it.

So I’m simply going to pause right here for a second as a result of I need to speak about if you’ve devoted a lot of your time to this athletic pursuit clearly with balancing with different issues, have there ever been occasions if you felt prefer it wasn’t value it or like this isn’t fairly the best factor for me. Or is it simply if you discovered it. What’s that been for you? Have there been any mindset shifts you needed to make.

Sure and no. I don’t suppose there’s ever been a time the place I’ve been like that is an excessive amount of I don’t need this or something like that, nothing that excessive. However there’s at all times some moments of a little bit little bit of doubt like perhaps I’m doing an excessive amount of, I really feel overloaded proper now whether or not that’s stress from varied issues or no matter. Like what we have been speaking about earlier than, how do you steadiness your life, how do you be sure to’re nonetheless glad.

You’re at all times questioning that like is that this what’s making me happiest. What ought to I be doing with my life mainly. And there have positively been occasions the place particularly like are you doing this proper? Possibly you must reduce on this or this or add this and all that. However that’s so far as the questioning goes. Actually in pickleball I’ve at all times been assured as a result of it’s simply such a cool surroundings. Simply the assembly individuals alone like I really feel like if I wasn’t within the place I’m being on the high of the game, I’d nonetheless love the game and need to play simply as nicely.

Ben, I find it irresistible. I’m getting excited, I’m getting an power simply listening to you discuss. So after we speak about now let’s go to the following stage so far as identification. It looks as if you could have a transparent understanding so far as who you’re. After which after we tie that into function, like a powerful sense of function of what it’s that you ought to be doing and also you’re executing on that. So after we converse of function and what it’s that you just’re doing in life, inform me if you hear the phrase function what involves thoughts for you.

Goal, I’d say positively, function to me could be very particular. It’s obtained to be relevant to very particular issues. So my function in pickleball goes to be very completely different from what I feel my function is exterior of pickleball. So for me in pickleball, as an illustration, I imply I’d like to be on the high, like I feel it’s my duty to myself and to pickleball to be nearly as good as I presumably can for so long as I can.

I feel there’s nothing extra invaluable than that, to advance the game when it comes to followers, different gamers, getting youthful gamers into it. That’s how I’ve at all times checked out athletes on the whole. Anytime I discover an athlete inspiring it was typically as a result of they have been the very best or they labored tougher than anyone or that they had an inspiring story, one thing like that. So I don’t suppose I can do something. My function in pickleball is to be the very best that I can and work onerous day-after-day to be that for everyone else. And that’s what everybody expects, that’s what they need to see, in order that’s what I’m going to do. That might be my function inside pickleball at the least.

Let’s hold tagging on a few of these like larger philosophical sort questions right here.

I find it irresistible. [LAUGHS]

Yeah. So what provides you perspective. In different phrases, like what are the values or core beliefs that floor you within the day after day. As a result of it’s in all probability fairly straightforward with all you could have occurring to get like I’ve obtained this and that. However what brings you again to love who you’re and just like the true you, the genuine you.

Yeah, no. You’re very proper about that. Once you get so busy with stuff and so wrapped up in a world it’s really easy to neglect about different stuff. Like I’ll go a pair days at a time the place I’m solely invested in a few issues and I’m simply that on occasion take a step again and take a deep breath and say, wow, it’s worthwhile to do that extra typically. That is good for you. You may’t be so wrapped up in every part you’re doing.

And I really feel like that occurs to lots of people in life the place it’s not even about being high in sports activities or something like that, it simply occurs to all people. And I’d say it’s in all probability related for everyone that if you step again, I feel it’s at all times, to me, it’s most essential to simply be glad about the stuff you do have, that’s what provides me essentially the most perspective. I’m very lucky in what I’m doing now. And I’m lucky exterior of this sport for thus many causes.

So fascinated about these issues. Household, circumstances, mates, no matter it’s that you just’re grateful for. That’s what provides me perspective. It’s like even when I didn’t have no matter I’ve, there’s a complete lot extra that I’ve to be glad about.

One phrase, three phrases, well being and wellness. What does it imply to you?

Well being and wellness. Good. Well being and wellness to me I’d say it’s life-style. It comes all the way down to life-style. Individuals can do it any variety of alternative ways. To me it comes again to the game, coaching, efficiency, restoration, not being injured, all these issues. However to different individuals it’d simply imply doing an exercise as soon as a day. It’s going to the health club, it’s taking part in pickleball. It’s no matter.

It could possibly be psychological well being and wellness. In the event you’re glad or not. It will possibly imply so many various issues to so many various individuals. To me it comes all the way down to that every particular person particular person’s perception in are you wholesome, are you content, or are you doing stuff day-after-day that will get you in that state.

Superior. So one factor I need to throw on the market for you and I don’t have this on the listing of questions that we at all times prep forward of time, is–

Fantastic.

You’re one in all our youthful cowl fashions who’s going to be, I known as you a canopy mannequin. Cowl topic, cowl function,

[LAUGHTER]

Nonetheless you need to take it.

Cowl mannequin let’s go.

Sure, you’re prepared.

I’m a mannequin, simply what I at all times wished.

Your cowl shot right here. One factor, if you look out whether or not it’s 5, 10, 15 years, what do you hope for the game of pickleball and in addition only for your self on the whole. Since you’re one in all our youthful individuals. Like oftentimes we’re doing extra reflection however I need to look ahead right here.

Yeah, no, that’s a implausible query. Glad you requested that one. So for pickleball, it’s so onerous to foretell. As a result of simply in like three years it’s come such a good distance. I’m excited for no matter it has to carry and I really feel like all prediction I make might be going to be improper. However how I see it in my utopia for pickleball is that it’s going to be a sport that everyone has heard of on the earth. That nearly all people desires to play for no matter cause.

As a result of like again to what I used to be saying earlier than, greater than another sport perhaps all people watches the NFL or all people watches soccer et cetera, however not all people performs. And pickleball doesn’t must be a spectator sport for everyone however I feel it has the potential greater than another sport I’ve ever seen to be a sport that nearly everybody can play and revel in. As a result of it simply turns transverses no matter it’s you do, no matter it’s you’re into. You’re all going to have enjoyable, you’re all going to take pleasure in taking part in it, and that makes it additionally a really social sport.

So it’s simply one thing everybody can relate to. So I may see it in 10, 15 years being the game to play it doesn’t matter what you do. That’s the place I’d wish to see it. And I feel simply that precept alone spreads by way of any variety of issues that anybody else is like, that is the way forward for pickleball. It’s like nicely if everybody performs it, the long run, it could possibly be something. So that may be the large factor for pickleball for me.

For myself, 10 to fifteen years, I don’t actually take into consideration the long run that a lot. I simply really feel like if you’re on a superb path and simply doing great things day-after-day that makes you content and all that stuff, then you definately’re in all probability going to be simply high-quality and simply glad in 10 to fifteen years as nicely. So I’m not going to make any predictions. I simply hope I’m nonetheless having fun with day-after-day like I’m now and possibly doing a little new and completely different stuff, I actually love selection. So I don’t count on to be doing the very same factor as I’m lately. I’d count on to be doing any variety of various things. So once more, actually onerous to foretell. Possibly as unpredictable as pickleball however I’m wanting ahead to something that it holds.

David, another questions past your two minute drill that’s arising right here. Anything for Ben?

Nothing involves thoughts Massive Ben, I don’t know in case you have the rest earlier than I put you on this pickle.

[LAUGHS]

I do know, I’m in a pickle. I’ve a query for you, David. I imply how a lot pickleball have you ever performed? Have you ever been on the court docket? I need to know a little bit bit about you guys.

I’ve. I’ve. I’ve truly performed, I need to say I’ve performed as much as at the least 10 video games now. I obtained uncovered to it once I truly got here as much as Minnesota. Coach Lowell Lindsay Ogden known as me out one night and I discovered all concerning the kitchen, I discovered all about the way to serve, and all these various things. And I completely–

Did you keep out of kitchen?

I stayed out, I used to be within the kitchen quite a bit at first.

Let’s go.

All proper, let me say that. I wasn’t cooking, I may inform you that a lot. However I’ll inform you that I completely fell in love with it, palms down. And ever since then, introduced my youngsters out since we obtained again to Texas, my spouse, mates, people, from Alpha that I’ve coached. So I completely find it irresistible. I can see how addicting it may be, and the way enjoyable it may be, and simply getting out and shifting. I really like that piece of it, simply being within the well being and health business. So sure, I’ve performed it. I’m an enormous fan. And I additionally performed ping pong too so if you happen to ever need to get on some desk tennis with me,

Let’s go.

Yeah, I’m proper there with you.

I find it irresistible.

It makes me glad right here and right here in first place or is I often ask about that as a result of it’s often both cute or humorous or one thing as a result of everybody often falls in love with it. They’re similar to I misplaced to this 80-year-old lady and I simply —

Sure. It’s all within the legs. It’s all within the legs. Now I obtained to go reverse right here. Least favourite train motion.

Oh, that is the worst. Nevertheless it’s cardio. I don’t like operating. Working is just not for me. And that’s humorous as a result of I do know its legs and I play pickleball and also you do a whole lot of operating. However I’d somewhat do like swimming for cardio than operating. Working simply, oh. I can’t do it.

OK. All proper, right here we go. Right here we go. What’s your weak spot with regards to meals. So the meals that you just simply can’t resist.
