Good luck!

Is your Plyo/Pilates/Yoga a class or do at home?
Don't forget you also play hockey once a week too!

Were you going to add swimming once the pools open up again?

Yoga's at home (probably going to do private sessions with Connie)... if you are interested in yoga, Connie can probably switch to a Sat morning session and guide instruct of us at the same time.

Pilates with wife at Pilates Den maybe.

Swimming will be when the pools open up again... that's on Reagan's schedule though as we'll be going as a family and i'll just do my laps after they leave.

Good Luck!

is there a reason why you split up the cardio and weights?
i was reading somewhere that there is actually no reason to split them up, in fact you should do them together.

Time is probably an issue.

Yes sir. Time, unfortunately, is the biggest obstacle for me. Motivation is not an issue.

Got an decent workout shovelling a ton of wet snow today

Just an update. I've only shaved a pound in the last two weeks, but I definitely feel my cardio improving vastly already.

We played against the fastest team that we've come up against thus far this season, with only 4 of us on D and I wasn't sucking nearly as much wind as when we played some slower teams with 6 on D. I actually felt really good after the game. My knee however, is still giving me problems.

have you been sticking to your diet?

yup....

awesome to hear that your new routine has had a positive affect on your game. Keep it up!

Good cardio is a great thing when it comes to playing hockey i find. Not only are you able to skate longer and faster, but I always find the hugest thing is the reduced mental fatigue. When my brain is getting ample oxygen and my heart is not overworked, I always find i see the ice better, and the play actually slows down to the point I can think about what I do rather than rely more on instinctive reactions. man i wish i could play again...

not to threadjack, but joel you need to get yourself repaired soon. you're missing out on some good hockey. I don't mean to make you feel bad about not playing because i know sitting out sucks. I sat out a whole season after i rolled my ankle years ago... but lucky for me it was only one season. You may be out for more.

Have you made up your mind about taking it to a private MRI clinic yet?

total threadjack. not the right forum. take it to the hockey forum or at least to joel's goals thread.
move.


and good luck jay.

any updates so far?
