Off-Season Training

Anyone who wants to feel like getting in the gym and doing work go watch the movie "The Fighter" with Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bale. Also i feel like the nike boom commercials i have been seeing during the World Jr.s make training seem awesome and glorify it.

I have never been a huge fan of off-season training as i used to see my off-season as OFF-season. But after having a couple of seasons interrupted by injury or ended by injury altogether i now realize the importance of having your body strong enough to endure the rigours you put it through during an ultimate season. I feel like most ultimate players can sympathize with me and my hamstring issues, as hamstrings seems to be the most common injury i have heard of (knees are up there too).

So this year i am putting in a more conscious effort to strengthen my legs and ensure that come the "boom" moment that the nike ad's talk about, im able to preform and be on the field, healthy.
