Ok, this being my first official posting, I thought I would let you know what has been going on this summer. A lot of people ask me what do bobsledders do in the summer months to train since there is no ice around. Well, we do a lot of physical work. I usually spend 4-5 days in the gym a week for about 2-3 hours each day. I do a lot of weight lifting, but also a fair amount of plyometrics. Its always fun to take some guys from the gym and have them do some of my work outs. I've found that humility comes in pounds!
But the other athletes have been doing the same as well. We are all heavily involved in college studies or our careers, so its never an all-day, everyday thing. We're all excited for the season to start so we can see how much our efforts have paid off!
The summer has also been speant working on the sled, doing charity events, writing a book of our experiences, and so much more! So what I'm saying is, stay tuned to the blog for upcoming news!
