3 fun ways to cross-train before tryouts


 
Spending endless hours dribbling a soccer ball isn’t the only way to guarantee a spot on the squad. Pro trainer and lifelong athlete Jon Gallo is spilling the ways to up the ante before tryouts. He also says to remember the five S’s: speed, strength, stamina, skill and spirit. Hurrah!
 
Jog it out
“For all sports, the off-season is the time to build speed, agility and strength. Since most sports have running as a standard requirement, you should run at least one to two days a week,” he reveals.

Hop on the bike (or in the pool)
“To help build muscle, I really recommend indoor cycling and swimming. They’re easy on the body, but they build speed, strength and endurance. Both of these activities allow an athlete to incorporate resistance training into their regimen without overdoing it,” Jon says.

Get your yoga on
“To avoid over-training, soreness and injury, you should incorporate flexibility training after every workout session,” he spills. We’re hitting the mat now!

ok so i have like an oily face. it gets oily like during the day even though i wash my face twice a day. it really does this during skool, but when its like summer or the weekend it doesnt do this. why does it happen the way it does? also is there any way i could help this w/o spending tons of money? thnx




Hey girl,

My face always got super oily in school because of my subconscious actions during the school day. I didn't even notice most of the time, but I would play with my hair, rest my head on my hands while my teacher was talking, skip washing my face after gym class, etc. All of these things can transfer oil to our faces! So try to be more aware of what you're doing in school to cause the oil - then stop! Smile

My friends and family are encouraging me to try sports this year for school but I don't really want to. I'm afraid that everyone will make fun of me because I don't know how to play. I've never been very athletic but I know I need exercise. I can either join sports or PE, which should I do? :/




Hey girlie,

It's great to try new things! Don't let the fear of the unknown (or of embarrassing yourself) keep you from trying a new sport that you might really like. Are there any sports you like playing with friends that you might wanna try on a more serious level? Any sports that make "working out" more fun to you? Any sports your friends already do so they could give you a few tips on them? Give it a try - you can always back out if you realize it isn't for you.




But also remember that you don't have to do something just because your friends and family want you to. If you're not athletic and aren't interested in anything beyond basic workouts to get fit, don't force it. Your talents could be better in a new club (an arts club, maybe?), a performing arts group, or a volunteer organization. The most important thing is getting involved in something - check out your options and find one that feels right for you!

Save your workout for when your fave TV show is on. Watching PLL while exercising will keep you distracted the whole hour. You’ll get in shape without even noticing!
 
Ah, Memorial Day Weekend, could you get here any slower?! You...


 
 

It's okay to drink two or more energy drinks a day.
