in thinking about my workouts this past year and where i ended up physically, some things started to make sense. before this past season, i was always going to be playing at least 75% of points in important games. that required me to be in good enough shape to play consistently and sometimes playing 4-5 points in a row. my workouts centered around making sure i would have enough endurance.
this past season, i switched my focus to mainly speed. i wanted to be quicker and faster.
this past season lacked a certain training intensity that i need to get back. i was working hard and also working smart, but i don't think i was working enough. also, i didn't do as many gut wrenching workouts. i would think of a workout i wanted to do and cringe. i was still doing track workouts, but something has been missing from my workouts. i need to spend more time in the threshold of pain. this offseason and during the season, i am going to work very hard to get most of my workouts into the threshold of pain that really sucks, that makes you work through fatigue. i think this is going to greatly improve my fitness levels as well as my mental toughness.
