- during Christmas break we have my old players come back and do some live work against my current varsity players. One of the alumni went down with a rolled ankle so I hopped in for 25 min with no warm up. I had 5 3pointers in a row plus a number of assists and drives etc... It is good to show my current varsity team that i am not just a washed up D1 player but that I practice what i preach, lead from the front and am not afraid to hop in on a moments notice and be ready to go. From a training perspective, doing easy strength type work plus some sport specific training allows one to be able to "go" at a moments notice because I am fresh and constantly "warmed up" from the training and skill work. Today was a good eye opener for me in seeing that my training, for right now, is spot on.

Comments:
My nutrition has been pretty poor as of late. Really needs to change. I am so active during the day that it doesn't effect my weight per say, but I can really tell it effects my immune system, joint inflamation, sleep patterns ect. Plus I just need to build better nutritional habits for the long run.
