Jay's Visit

When I picked Jay up at the airport i was so pumped because i knew i was going to try and play that very week. Unrealistic thinking i know. My ankle wasn't infact better it was just adrenaline. But since Jay was here he really helped me be patient with the injury and personally i think if he didn't come down i would of been out for the full 5 weeks. But that week he left i was able to go full contact by wednesday. It was fun hanging out with jay i must say, its so different when all you do together is train so it was a new experience to see him not training me. And to be honest nothing was different at all i had a blast all week. The constant jokes, and talking about Katt Williams who i must say is becoming my favourite comedian. There were some serious times though were we worked on getting my strength and cardio back up which kinda reminded me how much i hated him haha, no seriously that 4 minutes of hell is the worst thing ever. After those four minutes i was cool with him again. On a serious note he really kept me in check about being more responsible and that i should get up early to work out and to have breakfast. I didn't notice when he wasn;t here but i was falling back into a bad pattern because i was constantly around bad influences. I do realize that i am on my own and have to continue to eat right, sleep right, and to train right. Even though i couldn't play i still learned a lot and was reminded what i have to continue to do to be great. Especially watching a lot of guys do the work outs that jay had for them it definitely made me feel more confident because the stuff they were doing was sooooo easy and that i was wayyyy past that. It was kind of funny to watch how out of shape these guys were when they were suppose to be in the best shape of their lives. It definitely showed that my hard work over the last couple years was worth it. The past couple games i watched have also helped me because i learn from other peoples mistakes that they have made on the field. All in all it was a good time while jay was down. Unfortunately he did have to go and even though it would have been a lot easier having him here all the time i know that it will help me be more mentally tough throughout the season.
