Bogdan Suciu is one of the people who is particularly well versed in basketball support. Bogdan is a physiotherapist at Telekom Baskets Bonn in the BBL. We wanted to know from him why the team is so successful this season, how the athletes are suffering from the Corona restrictions and what he does every day to ensure the club’s success.

We ask – Bogdan answers

K-Active®: Hello Bogdan! Nice that it worked out with a short interview!

Bogdan: Thanks, I’m happy too!

K-Active®: The Telekom Baskets have held up excellently among the first places in the BBL this season so far. At times you were even in first place – First of all, congratulations on this top performance!
This success can be attributed to hard work. What adjustments were made after two rather mediocre seasons in order to be able to bring about this boost in performance?

Bogdan: The biggest twist was definitely the signing of the new coaching team: the Iisalo brothers Tuomas and Joonas. These are two absolute top coaches in Germany, if not even in Europe. I am personally very pleased that our club management was able to convince them to come to Bonn.

K-Active®: Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, basketball has been severely restricted in the last two years in terms of training, games and fans. How has everyday sport changed for you since then and how do the players deal with playing in front of empty stands?

Bogdan:The Corona period is a huge burden for all of us, especially mentally. Due to the lockdowns, our foreign players couldn’t get to know the great fans and the city. That has led to loneliness. Because many players could not bring their families with them.
In addition to my regular work as a physiotherapist, there was also the work of the corona tester and the contact person for corona virus matters. The BBL guide last season provided three tests per week for all players, coaches and support staff. That was quite a bit of work. . Since this season and with the vaccination of the players, testing has now been reduced to a minimum. Luckily, we can now admit fans in Bonn again. That’s a very big advantage, which you can see from our home game results. Playing in an empty hall was more of a “tragedy”.

K-Active®: Our cooperation has existed for several years now and we provide your team with everything you need for the medical and therapeutic care of your players. Which product or therapy method do you use most often and why?

Bogdan:I am very proud of our cooperation! I think it’s more than a normal cooperation. In the past, I’ve had the privilege of paying a visit to the K-Active® family and we always had a great exchange.
In my day-to-day work, of course, I need the sports tape most often to look after the players. The various creams from the Vitality Line and, of course, the high-quality kinesiology tapes are also loyal companions.

K-Active®:Most recently, you were able to use the “DEEP OSCILLATION®” device to benefit from the many effects of deep oscillation. In which situations is it used and what is the feedback from the players?

Bogdan:The device is absolutely awesome! Your managing director Siegfried Breitenbach recommended the device to me, and it came at exactly the right time. I had to treat two ankle injuries and had great results, especially in the area of lymphatic drainage.

K-Active®: The therapy method of deep oscillation is quite an innovative procedure. What is your basic attitude when it comes to trying new things? Are you open to modern technology and innovative therapies, or do you prefer to rely on the tried and tested?

Bogdan: Basically, I’m always open to new things, no question. I think a good mix of tried and tested, new knowledge and innovative tools make the therapy more successful and in sports also faster and more efficiently!

K-Active®: A very good conclusion! And with that we say goodbye and thank you very much for your time!

Bogdan: For you any time gladly Thank you for your time, your work and your support!
