Are you pumped?

<p>I just finished running 4 miles as part of my workout plan for cross country. Anyone else pumped up for high school sports? If so, share your workout and nutrition tips!</p>

<p>I roller-skied 7.1 miles yesterday. Happily, I'm not sore at all. I am amazingly out of shape.</p>

<p>I'm excited for track next year...but I'm mainly pumped because I'm still running off of the excitement of my last season, which just ended like 2 weeks ago.</p>

<p>I'm running 3 miles. I'm a sprinter, lol. I'm doing this because I'm already not at 100% by the end of the 100m.</p>

<p>And as for my jumping events, I jump around every chance I can get. I'm also constantly thinking of steps while doing everyday tasks...lol.</p>

<p>Woohoo...workouts and nutrition..i love it:
5 day split on the weights
one body part each day...usually 3-4 sets of 4-6 high intensity reps
30 mins jogging at about 60-75%
Then some plyometrics for good measure...not alot though, dont want to overtrain</p>

<p>Eight small meals a day
250 grams of protein
300 grams of carbs
120 grams of fat</p>

<p>Sport specific:
Stick work...usually shoot both left and right hand, then play wall ball both left and right, then some quick stick left and right</p>

<p>meh... i don't do high school sports...but i do fence nationally</p>

<p>come to think of it...i'm not really involved in my school lol</p>

<p>most of my ec's are out of school</p>

<p>I think fencing'd be sweet, even though I don't really know much about it.</p>

<p>Yeah, I'd like to be able to fence. Never tried, though.</p>

<p>Well, during my trip to Houston I got to ride a horse for the first time. And I did pretty well. Consequently, I now want to pursue with horse riding. Unfortunately, I'm half an inch taller than the maximum jockey height, so screw pursuing that fantasy...</p>

<p>Anyway, is anyone else in Cross Country? Can you give me some of your tips when preparing over the summer?</p>

<p>pprn00dle, what sport do you play?</p>

<p>I ride my bike for an hour or so per day. I also swim like.. a lot.</p>

<p>I'm doing country in the fall as well. :) On top of swimming, tennis, and soccer.</p>

<p>I'm in cross-country. I suck. I do it to get in shape for skiing.</p>

<p>I roller-skied 17 miles yesterday. I am sore today. Maybe I'm sore because everyone I rollerskied with has done college skiing...</p>

<p>LABLONDIE!</p>

<p>YOU LIVE IN BEMIDJI!</p>

<p>My friend just moved up there today from Rogers, MN. He used to live by me in Michigan.</p>

<p>Who's your friend and what grade is he in (next year)?</p>

<p>He's going into eighth grade. His name is Sam. His last name starts with an R.</p>

<p>So, I probably won't meet him...</p>

<p>Unless he's in either CC, XC, or Speech.</p>

<p>The 4 Mile race in our town was today, but I didn't go cuz the humidity was like 1 million percent...</p>

<p>I lifted some weights today. I'm trying to get in better shape for dodgeball next fall. I'm hoping to get recruited</p>
