Is it a myth or is it true?
I have had this discussion with one of my friends. He believe that people work out more when they live in warm weather climates than in cold weather. He's reasoning is because people that live in warm weather will work out more because they do not have to bundle up because the weather is better. I don't know if this is necessarily true but we as America's perceive that people that live in Florida, California, Texas and Arizona work out more. When you look at commercials or when ever they show these places on TV they always show how great people look and how great the place is. If you believe this to be true please leave a comment.

The Start of The NBA Season
I watched the open games of the NBA season yesterday but I was not impressed at all. I know there are going to be a lot of mistakes because this is the first game, but I have a problem with the players being out of shape and not playing hard. It makes me not want to be a fan because back in the glory years(80's some 90's) of the NBA, the players had pride in their profession . Every game the players played hard and they did not take games or even months off. People ask me if I watch the NBA and I say not until February because that is when the players actually start playing hard. The star players start turning up their games because they are getting ready for the playoffs. This is the main reason why the league has gone down. If anyone has a comment about the NBA please leave me a comment.

how do you know when to stop?
In practice yesterday, we had a player come back from being injured. He has not practiced in about a month, and has just been able to ride an exercise bike for about 2 weeks. He was struggling doing the work-out and the running. The trainers wanted to pull him out of practice but we as a coaching staff said he need to fight through it, So my question is how do you know to keep pushing the players or to cut them a break? It very hard to determine because we want players to be tough and to have to a never quit attitude. Please leave comments if you have any information.

How long does it take to get into shape?
We have one player on the team that has to sit out the first semester, and can not particpate in any team functions. How long would you say it would take a person to get into basketball shape? I know everyone is different but for arguement sake what do you think would be the average amount of weeks? It is right now October 16 and his is egilible to play December 14 so when should he start training?

The best condition athletes?
I feel that boxers are the best conditioned athletes because they have to fight for 12 rounds of 3 minutes, and hit the next person and get hit by the other person. Some people would say 3 minutes is not a long time but trying to move and hit someone that is plenty of time. Trust me if you every been in a fight you know that is enough time. People usually don't even fight this long.No other sports can compare to the conditioning that these athletes have to be in! If you think another sports athlete has to be in better please post your opinion.

Genetics or hardwork
I would like to know what your thoughts are on whether people get in shape because of how they are made or the hard work that they put in? The basketball team has been conditioning now for four weeks and some players are still not in shape but other players are. Some people think that the reason why some of the player are not in shape is becasue of the food they eat. Some players eat Mcdonalds, Sheetz, or Fried foods everyday but does that really have factor on their conditioning? Personally I don't think so, my eating habits are terrible but I work hard to stay in shape. Please send me some feedback if you have any on genetics or hardwork.

I had a debate at the gym the yesterday about if nascar driver's really athletes? And do they have to be in shape? True story!!! I said no because of how hard is it to drive a car for 4 hours. I have done it plenty of times before, but maybe its easy for me becasue I 'm good shape!!! People were really debating this so I would like to get your input.
