Bring on the Icebath!

Little update on my stuff guys....

Recently relocated to Maryland to start training with some Pros and College guys over the summer.

Testing Day 1 (June 5th) - Was in great shape, and tested really well, can't wait to see how I stacked up. I know my 20yd Dash was 2.5sec. My Vertical was 24in (should have been closer to 30 if I was truly warmed up, and didn't have to drive 9 hours the day before....but no excuses I suppose). And we did a test called "Wingate" really hardcore, but I was in the top 5%.

Day 2 and 3 (June 6, 7) - LOTS of Plyo, and Dynamic stretching, and I THOUGHT I was in good shape going into this, I definitely over-estimated myself. Very sore all June 7th and June 8th. Mainly my Glutes.

Our workout went something like this (all PM and times);

June 6th; 5-530, Hardcore Dynamic Stretching. 530-645, Hardcore Plyometrics, lots of Lunges and squat-like movements (15-20 sets).

7-8, On Ice, Lots of Skating.

815-9, Jog, 9min mile pace.

9-930 cool down static stretch.


I went through a gallon and a half of water from 4-11PM that day.

June 7th, almost identical workout except no run, and different workouts in the plyo.

June 8th, Dynamic Stretch, In Gym workout whole body core work.

More pucks on the ice, and just a cooldown.

Today should be much more simple, then a break Friday (I might do yoga on my own, and bike a bit). Note, that everyday I am taking shots in my backyard too, 100-150. Then we have a setup game Saturday and a Lecture on Nutrition, Psycology, and such. Then back to the Plyo on Monday.

I like being sore.
