Preparing for Practice

HOW TO GET INJURED, SICK, PERFORM POORLY, AND GET SO DISCOURAGED YOU WANT TO QUIT

Get up as late as possible. This allows your body no time to develop blood flow and warmup. This will ensure that you will pull a muscle. Also, by getting up as late as possible you will be prevented from adequately fueling and hydrating, which will ensure that you have no energy to complete the workout, and with no hydration you can become overheated so that you get sick or pass out.The pulled muscles and passing out will, of course, provide you with many excuses for not developing as a runner

HOW TO PREPARE YOURSELF TO TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF MORNING PRACTICES SO YOU CAN ADVANCEYOUR ABILITIES AND CONTRIBUTE TO TEAM SUCCESS

Get up by 6:45

Your body needs at least an hour and a quarter to “wake up”.Have 8 oz. of water or Gatorade-type drink immediately. Have a light, easily digestible meal. For example:

  • Bagel or wheat toast or oatmeal
  • Banana
  • Energy bar
  • Juice

Drink another 8 oz of fluid right before you leave. Bring 16-20 oz of fluid with you.

POST WORKOUT FLUID AND FUEL REPLACEMENT

You need to replace 300-400 calories of carbs and protein within one hour, preferably within one half-hour, of your run. 8 oz. of low fat chocolate milk is perfect starter. A juice, fruit, yogurt smoothie is an excellent choice, as well.
