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!

MOD MOD MOD my boyfriend is a grade ahead of me and will be going into high school this year. he flirts with girls a lot but thats how he always has been but everyony has known we wer together. but i am woried when he goes to high school somegirl will take it the wrong way and i might get hurt. he isnt that kind of guy but thats what all my friends are telling me!

Hey girly,
Just be careful. The fact that you know he is this way will make it much easier for you to see what's going on. Keep an eye on him. If he starts to look like he is flirting with another girl and he is serious about it, then dump him.

MOD MOD MOD I met this really nice boy. I talk to him alot. I told my friend about him and she has a boyfriend already but I'm afraid she's going to steal him from me! What should I do if she does? She has before to a different guy I have liked too! What should I do? Thank you!

Hey girly,
If your bff already has a bf, then don't worry, chances are she isn't gonna steal him. If she does try to make moves, remind her that you really like him and that she already has a guy that will give her plenty of attention. Good Luck!
