Sunday Rest Day

On days that we have a lift and practice... if you plan on lifting before, try and make it at least 3 hours before practice. You need to give your body plenty of time to rest after a workout before you step on to the field. Otherwise, you put your body under a lot of stress in a shorter amount of time which can really wear on you.

We need to do a better job taking care of our bodies. I talked during our first meeting about knowing the difference between soreness and injury. If you feel like it's more than just soreness, let me know and we'll address it. Guys that already know they have injuries, you should be icing several times during the day, not just after lifting or practice. A lot of your recovery falls on your shoulders.

Foam rolling and stretching are huge to your guys physical health. Make sure you are doing these things daily away from the field. If you don't have a foam roller, either use one we have out at the field, or hop in the training room and use one of theirs. Might not be a bad idea to pick one up for yourself.
