Most of my exercise at the moment is aerobic. I used to be on the weighlifting and football teams in high school, so I've already got a lot of muscle mass. I also broke my nose about a month ago, so it's not recommended I get under weights yet. Right now I'm just working on improving my overall speed and quickness, especially my lateral quickness. I was able to keep up defensively with kids from the county and private school leagues in high school, but everytime we played the teams from the hood, where kids had quicker first steps, I would get burned time and time again on defense. That's always been my biggest weakness, so that's my biggest focus point at the moment.
I agree completely with you guys though. Working out just makes you feel better. I've gotten in ruts where I don't have practice for a week, and I'll just hang out all week watching tv, smoking, and playing guitar, and during those stretches, I not only get out of shape, but I start to feel a lot more lethargic and tired. Working out just revitalizes you.</div>
See, im kind of complete opposite with what you are doing. I have loads of speed and I'am really quick of my feet. Im just trying to build alot of muscle and add some strong weight. I basically do alot of weight lifting with breaks of the Bicycle or the Treadmill, or some type of cardio. Mines for the basketball team, I need to get a little stronger. We don't need anymore fast guards, some strong off the dribble or to the basket guards are what we need. The Abdominal Cruch thing has alot of focus on your abbs. You can set a a diffrent weight. In about the 10th rep, you feel it like hell. It has a alot of focus on it. Sit-Ups to me is way to easy, I have to do so many to get some pain.
