Re: Off Season Training

Hey,

There are plenty of hours in the day to devote to the things that really matter. In life you will find that you will always find time to do the things that interest you. It's a matter of discipline that gets you to do the things like school that are equally important.

From my experience, I have found plenty of time to devote first to God and then all my other priorities (wife, job (baseball for me), school (when I was there)). You just have to decide that hanging out on the weekend or spending time playing video games is no longer acceptable. If you're serious about the game then you'll be serious about your schoolwork too. I would devote 2 hrs a day in the offseason to working out (3/4 days a week) and getting swings on the other days. There is plenty of time left for school/church and family...you just have to want it.

Its November. Baseball is over until spring and the offseason is here. Last year I spent more time in my garage lifting and hitting then I did hitting the books. My grades suffered and my parents have told me if this repeats itself then there won't be any baseball for me come spring. My question is how many hours a day should a player dedicate themselves to work in the off season even though there is the concern of school. How can one become a better player when there is basically just not enough time to get everything done that needs to be. So how should I consider balancing my hours so everything I need to do can be completed?
