<--World Cup Workout

Today, I proposed that NRG should have a workout thread in the private section of the forum. We would post what our physical training goals are and what we are doing to reach them. Every player should post every time he have actively engaged in reaching our target. Everyone knows the benefits of working out, I just don't know if everyone on our team actually does it. This is not only a good way to monitor everyone's workout regime; it also encourages trust, team bonding and self-confidence while positively creating competition. When we go to Jacksonville, I want us to look like pumped up aggressive athletes not your typical run of the mill out of shape paintball player.

So, the part of the plan is that you state your goal. This can be losing X amount of body fat or gaining X amount of muscle. It can also be that you want to run faster or have more endurance.
Then you state what you did to get to your goal. It can be really easy like today I ate only green salad, and I hate salad.

Then the next person would write and so on. So, the point is not to lie, because if you are then you’re not only cheating yourself, your cheating the team. Oh and the coaches should be involved as well, not only do you decrease stress by working out, you think clearer and such are able to make better decisions on the fly. + People who workout are generally more successful in life and business, I think it has to do with the image you project. Since I started the thread, I thought it would be appropriate to be the first to write my objective and what I am doing to get there. Here's what I wrote:

"I want to lose 5 pounds getting my overall body weight to 160. I also want more endurance and I want to run faster, today I ran for 30 minutes on a treadmill and I workout my legs by doing leg presses and leg lifts. I also worked on my back and my arms but a lot less than my legs. I also made a commitment to myself to use the stairs instead of the elevator or escalator everywhere I go until the end of World Cup."
