Knicks center Mitchell Robinson starts own farm in Nashville to boost health
Robinson says the Nashville operation, which includes chickens, is part of a nutrition-focused regimen to support conditioning for the season.
New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson has started his own farm in Nashville as part of an effort to boost his health and conditioning, a development highlighted in a New York Post report published Sept. 26.
Robinson, described as a country boy who loves monster trucks and has been known to own multiple dogs, told reporters Thursday that the operation is located in Nashville and includes chickens, though he declined to share additional details about the property or its production. The farm, he indicated, is intended to support a nutrition-driven approach to maintaining peak conditioning for basketball.
Robinson’s remarks underscored that the farm’s nutritional benefits are what he emphasized as part of his training regimen. He also cut off questions when pressed for more specifics, signaling that the topic remains personal. While the farm’s exact operations and outputs were not disclosed, the revelation aligns with a broader pattern of athletes pursuing off-court routines aimed at enhancing health and longevity.
The Knicks have long prioritized player wellness as they navigate a demanding schedule, and Robinson’s latest off-court endeavor adds another dimension to the franchise’s focus on conditioning and longevity. Details about how the farm will intersect with his on-court routine were not provided, and a franchise spokesperson did not offer further comment.
In the broader sports landscape, players increasingly explore nutrition-heavy, self-driven health strategies outside traditional training and medical programs. Robinson’s Nashville project stands as a personal initiative that his camp described as part of his ongoing pursuit of staying fit and ready for the rigors of an NBA season.
Further information on the farm, including its scope and any planned production, remains unavailable. As Robinson advances through a season that places high demands on conditioning, his personal regimen will continue to attract interest from teammates, coaches, and fans alike.
