way out of shape is not the word man :laugh :jk

wanna get back in shape slowly: you did 2 suicides this morning, get back there tomorow and 2 suicides again. after couples times of 2 suicides, it'll get easier : jump to the next step : 3 suicides

when u'll be able to do 5-6 suicides start the Cardio-Program

i know this sounds crazy BUT i decided to play football,lol, this year (sophmore this year) and i have to say i missed out, all the things you learn for speed, agility, strength, endurance can all help you in lacrosse. I can run much faster and longer then i could during last season, i cant wait till this season. i just got to keep the conditioning going. :agree

i plasy football to and hey jump rope like crazy it helps so much

[johnnyicesae]

Football is great. But Rugby is even better complement to Lax in my opinion. ALOT more running, you never stop really for half and get like 5 minutes(literally) at half time. Same types of skills with hitting and all. But more improvisation and fakes. On the run type stuff like lax. But your body does take one hell of a beating. Guess thats good to toughen you up. If your going to drill a guy wearing nothing and your not scared. Your going to hit that much harder when you strap on pads cause your not going to feel it as much.

Football is good and i love it but i am just getting into Rugby just like i got into lax a few years ago. These are just some observations i've made

[bigDman]

i play rugbee and i swim in the summer football in the fall wrestle in the winter lax in the spring talk about touning up that is thje perfect thing to do

I started workign out at one of the YMCA's up here with some friends, and I noticed that just from doing the legpress, and working with other weights that work the legs, then by running for 10 min. I was able to increase my speed and endurance, just have to figure out how to increase my agility.

Jumping rope will help your agility.

only problem I have had with that is i can't find one long enough for me, what length should i be using if i am 6'2" 6'3"?

[LiquidMercury16]

a long jump rump obviously also doing stadiums where you step on every step is really good for agility as well

[DrDetroit]

running stadiums would be killer, like to do an entire loop around up and down

[BuckWyld]

speaking of running stadiums, anyone remember that 80's movie VisionQuest where the guy is doing stadiums with a huge log on his shoulders

[DrDetroit]

missed that one. i heard tho that former notre dame quarterback paul horning (from way back when) could run the steps at notre dame stadium up and down all the way around.

[BuckWyld]

Vision Quest is one of thoes motivational sports movies, basically it is about this kid who really wants to be the state champ for his weight class in wrestling, but he has to beat this bad *** wrestler, so he trains like hell and wins at the end.

[DrDetroit]

oh yeah it was on reel classics one time

[D o o s t]

Dude, if you really want to get into shape try out wrestling. Wow, it improves on everything, you'll be truely amazed. It helps with other sports as well. I used to hate it, but its an amazing sport. I just can't wait til Football and Lacrosse though.
