I never understood why we were made to do this every day in high school sports programs!
Honestly, I was in such good shape when I was a teenager. Didn't realize that until recently. Back in the day, I would pretty much just start whatever sport I was playing without any sort of warm up .. unless the coach made you "limber up" by running a lap or some simple calisthenics.
Only on the baseball team did we take or time and stretch out properly. It took 10 minutes. Nowadays I think it's almost a half hour and there's also cooling off period as well. Some would say it's part of the feminization of today's society. At this point in my life, it's a necessary reality. Well, probably both parts LOL But most people say it stops injuries from happening, and who I am to disagree?
And according to this caption, there are many other benefits associated with it! Though I'm not happy with these boys eating habits! Well, they do have a solid focus on their cell phones. I'm sure they are studying up big time on the play book, or maybe the form of the other school's male athletes?
Well, I will be gone sometime on Friday to head out for a Valentine's Day weekend with the GF. Yeah, it's about 3 weeks away, but we get much better travel rates and availability now .. We don't ski, but many of the places we like to visit get REALLY busy in a few weeks, so why not have fun now. Plus I believe the GF has to work that weekend, so why not get away when we can? Plus she'll be seeing some of her old friends so it kills quite a few birds with just one stone!
I will be back late Sunday night, so I have two more captions to post over the weekend. Please keep the website busy and interesting by commenting on this one and the next two, all of which are blog exclsuives. I'll be checking in from time to time and perhaps be obliged to comment as need be, especially if she hangs out with her friends for a few hours while I stay back at the hotel to workout, swim and whatever else I will do!
