There have been a number of individuals who have just completed their seasons in looking to get started training.  I want to offer a piece of advice to all of you and that piece of advice is summed up by two words.  Post Season.  Take some down time to let the body heal up and give yourself a much deserved rest.  Look to take a week off activity and then over a few weeks start gradually increased training frequency, intensity, time and type.  In order to grow we must rest, fix nagging injuries and allow our adrenal system and CNS to have a break. On top of this it will help with your mental state and you will be fully ready to train when the time comes.
