What's your morning or evening workout? or afternoon?

[Kailei123]

I usually don't work out, except work on pitching and batting for softball in the evenings, some times, I'll do sit ups and pushups and everything...but what would you suggest?

[DeepBlue]

I used to pitch and my routine was big on muscle endurance, flexibility, and core strength. You're on the right track with the situps. Add burpees and planks as well. Pushups are fine but make sure that you keep things in balance by doing other upper body exercises. If you only do pushups you will build up only your chest and shoulders and risk becoming muscle-bound, which is bad for baseball (and therefore softball as well I assume). Get yourself a good set of dumbells, nothing too heavy though because you're going fore tone/endurance not size. Improve your lower half though box jumps and running hills/steps. Good luck.

Thx so much...I'll make sure I do all those things.

i usually do jogging every morning for about 1-2 hours. sometimes after that I do self-martial art training. I try to increase my agility by punching and kicking nothing (I pretend I fight someone).

i rarely play soccer with my friends for I almost don't have time for it.

for me any exercise can be exiting only if I slept much and I woke up in the morning. that makes you feel fresh.

Haha I'll start running for sure :)

[RainyDaySara]

Wow...So I do this:

3 days a week I run 3 kilometers

3 days a week I run 2 kilometers (I take turns between the 2 and 3)

I lift weights, and do a lot of different things to build up overall arm strength (I do this every other day).

Wall sits every day, with fists out in front, for 6-7 minutes

30 pushups

45 situps with legs at 90 degrees

2 types of crunches, 25 each

And then I walk my dog every night

Sounds like a lot, but it doesn't take up that much time and I'm not ripped or anything lol

[Kailei123]

Haha love it

[kcboo]

um wall balls, burpees, jump squats, kettle bell swing, one leg butt lifts, knee raises, pull ups, lots of cardio, shoulder press, and step ups with weights . oh also swimming

[martyfellow]

Do a lot of upper body work, low weights with high repetitions, while you're playing. If not playing for a while, do swimming or running along with increasing the weights you're pushing.

[Kailei123]

Thx! :)

Body weight workouts-add planks, v-ups, pull ups

Dumbbell workouts- shoulder presses, dumbbell bench presses, barbell curls, dead lifts

Pitching- throw a knuckle ball

Hitting- watch the ball, rotate the hips, drive it

[Kailei123]

Thx for the advice, especially the dumbbell workouts.

Morning stretch.

Afternoon either upper body or lower body workouts.

Any other time of day, soccer.
