Sunday night check-in. Fall sports are in full swing, school schedules are packed, and we keep hearing two massive mistakes: "I'm playing games every week, so I don't need to lift" and "I'll sleep when the season's over."
Both of those will wreck your season.
First off, if you drop your strength and conditioning the second games start, you aren't maintaining your armor, you're losing it and opening the door for an injury. Games and team practices are just the test; the gym outside of practice is where you keep your speed, velocity, and edge.
Second, you can't out-train a bad sleep schedule. Growth and recovery don't happen on the field; they happen when you actually shut it down and get the 8+ hours your body needs to rebuild.
You want to dominate this season instead of just surviving it? Keep putting the work in under the bar, and protect your recovery. No shortcuts. Let's get after it this week.
