I work hard in the offseason for that situation - for injury prevention.
I work a lot in the gym on injury prevention.
I learned you're going to have to start from the ground up, and honestly, it starts with hard work, hard work in the offseason, and no shortcuts really.
We work hard in the offseason, we work hard to practice to win.
As a player, I was fortunate to work with coaching and medical staffs that underscored the importance of utilizing injury prevention exercises, which contributed to my healthy and long playing career.
I'm impassioned about injury prevention as an athlete.
That's my plan in the offseason: to work hard and to try to play as many games as I can and stay healthy.
I have long been puzzled by the entrenched mentality, and often enforced practice, of longer work hours and less sleep. Innumerable policies exist within the workplace regarding smoking, substance abuse, ethical behaviour, and injury and disease prevention.
I feel good, and the way I determine it is through my workout. I work so hard in the offseason that if I'm able to do everything I have to, I figure I must be healthy.
Not only is yoga excellent for flexibility, but it is also a great tool for longevity and injury prevention, as it allows for internal body awareness.
Obviously, everyone goes in the gym and does the biceps bells and the bench press, but when you're injured, you work on your core, your pelvic floor, your groins, on glutes, and muscles you wouldn't really know about. It does make you a stronger player all round in terms of injury prevention.
I think the offseason, it's an offseason, but it's where you can excel and where you can pass guys. It's something I always take super serious.
I think when you're younger in the game, you're like, 'Let me go bench. Let me go squat.' Now it's just like, 'Let me work on my balance.' It's about things that are more about injury prevention than getting stronger.
I've put myself in the best possible positions through my daily training and my recovery processes and my offseason regimen and preparation. I break down when I have these freak injuries happen, when the hard work is basically thrown out.
There are a lot of critics out there, a lot of people that you want to prove wrong. But that's what your hard work is for in the offseason, spending hours and hours in the gym.
I love yoga. There's a lot of stretching involved, which helps with my flexibility and injury prevention. Vinyasa is my favorite as a recovery tool and for me to continue having my legs feel good.
Every injury is specific to what has happened, but the advice that I will give is that if you have a lower body injury, to work your upper body out. If you have an upper body injury, work your lower body out. Again, move what is not broken and you will definitely feel better.
