Lumberjacks,
Winter Break is here, you have 8 week to get healthy, both mentally and physically. This program is design to help you prepare for the upcoming training regimen. Here are your priorities.
- Rehab…you have 9 total weeks to get healthy, anything that hurts needs to be taken care of by our professionals, find out what you need to do and do it!
- Academics…you have 3 weeks until finals, get your grades up so there is no eligibility problems next semester.
- Mental health…over break, after finals, if you need some time to do nothing and let your mind rest. That’s okay, just be ready for the spring.
- Prepare…most of you know what is going to happen this spring, get ready to suck it up and get it done.
- Mediocrity…DO NOT, be satisfied with your performance last season. As an individual or a team, your record does not represent your ability.
