In 2 weeks my family and I will be going to the beach, we have a pool and access to the ocean. Is there anything that can be done in the pool or in the ocean, like swimming into the waves or something? My cousin who plays football, and is a monster, is coming and he says he has water resistance training ready... So is there anything?

Dude swimming is money for anything. Mainly lap swimming, just set a distance and swim that far every day and then eash day intensify it by going faster.

Also its great after you play, its like running so it removes the lactic acid. When i was in Hawaii for a showcase, i swam after each day and there was no arm pain at all.

BTW, Muhhamed Ali was know to train under water, as throwing punches under the water, look how good he was, maybe take swings under water? hahaha maybe.

Salt water swimming is TREMENDOUS for recovery and rejuvenation. The colder the better.

Those on the West Coast should take advantage of this daily if possible.

Plus the view is excellent! Beats the musty gym.

Not to mention that running on the sand is great for the legs... Just make sure you are looking where you are going rather than at the scenery on the beach Smile

Good call about running on the beach, I forgot about that... I'll be sure to do that.

My coach does pool workouts with us and we do swing under water. We have a whole bunch of wiffleball bats (not the thin ones, but regular size) and theres a whole on top so water begins to fill it up the more you swing. Its a good workout.

Here is that workout in case you missed it. It is free and we're not sure why the mods would not want you to have it. Unless they only want you to PURCHASE things from Jon Doyle. Sounds shady.

Here it is:
