VH1 Pickup Artist 2 Casting

So there are generally a lot of stereotypes that get tossed around about big guys like me. One of the ones I hear a lot is that we are to lazy and lack the will to work out. Well I can assure you that is one stereotype that does not apply to me. I may not look like much, but I love to work out.

One of my favorite ways to do it is to play sports with my friends. That way I am gettin in some exercise and having fun doing it. We play basketball, volleyball, and a little tennis. I also used to coach soccer, so running around with middle schoolers gave me a workout. And the funnest is playing football. Getting myself into shape is one of the big reasons I started playing semi-pro football. I love the sport, and I want to get in shape; its only makes sense to play.

So my weekly workout schedule is like this:
*Monday- Chest, Triceps, Cardio, Football Drills
*Tuesday- Fooball practice and all that it entales
*Wednesday- Shoulders, Biceps, Cardio, Football Drills
*Thursday- More football practice and the fun to go with it
*Friday- Back, Forearms, Legs, Cardio, Football Drills
*Saturday- Cardio, Football Drills, Will eventually be game day
*Sunday- Cardio, Football Drills

Cardio consists of using the treadmill, riding a bike, goin for a walk, goin for a jog, and whatever else comes to mind.

There are a ton of football drills that I try and switch up day to day. Ladder drills (1 in each, 2 in each, 2 in 2 out, varied 2 in 2 out). Cone drills (Short shuttle, 3-cones, 4 cones, In and Out, Zig-Zags, and back and fourths). Of course those aren't what most people probably know them as, but thats what my team and me know them as.

I also switch up what workout I do with each muscle group from week to week to keep the muscles guessing. Thats key to getting stronger.

So I think that about covers what keeps me pretty tired during the week. Hope it didn't bore you too much...
