What do everybody's teams do for conditioning outside of practice?

I use Pert and don't worry about it too much, but I know some teams like to use a separate cream rinse when they're done shampooing. I think the better DI teams can afford to do a hot oil treatment.

Think of Rocky IV without the Commies in the car. Our winter work out includes 50lb sandbags, bleachers, a 300lb tractor tire, giant rubberbands, a pair of dice, reverse bear crawl, a sledgehammer, three tree trunks, two duffle bags and a partridge in a pear tree. Not to mention the running and up-downs.

Mostly 12ounce curls. I occasionally go with quick light shots when I want a good sprint workout. Then there are the times that I do more heavy lifting with the larges.

Each dye represented something different.....the white one was the number of sets we would do, and the red one was the different conditioning.......and if someone rolled a 1 on the white than it meant the same as a zero....definitely a reward if you ever see that! I'd recommend something like this, its better than doing the same things every day.

I think our rookies are the best conditioned players in the world.
1. They run for the cages before practice and after.
2. They run to get my water jug, then run back to pour water into my mouth for me, then run to set it back down in the exact spot they picked it up.
3.When I miss a shot (9 times out of 10) they all like to sprint to see who can be the first to pick it up and pass it back to me.
4. When we have to do laps for messing around they all start fighting to see who can run my laps for me. Then they have to write a paper on how they felt while running my laps for me and run it to my house 22 miles off campus. Then run back to campus.
Then we have them run for stupid stuff also, but I wont let that get out on this forum....
