It’s okay to feel a bit overwhelmed at the start of a new season when you are getting used to a new team, new routine, getting back to school… there’s a lot going on.
Make things easy on yourself by focussing on just these 3 things for the first 2-4 weeks.
1. Recovery - and that doesn’t mean using the massage gun or sauna. I listed the big 3 of recovery on the second slide above.
2. Mobility - but not the same mobility you did during the off-season
3. Routine - establish a new routine as quickly as you can around school, practice, games, team lifts, etc. If you are going to need a gym membership, get that sorted.
It’s okay to be a bit overwhelmed. It is not okay to let that lead to procrastination. Make it your goal to be back into a regular routine within 2-weeks.
