glad to see you took my advice in making this thread, this is some really good stuff, id say ive started doing the majority of this stuff in november and have not had slowing injuries at all i really like the hot/cold shower intervals after a workout, one of the best and easiest things to do

the hot/cold shower was the reason I was sore like a few times a year when I was a athlete.

really? that must be why my quads are sometimes sore/seem slow until i do warmups, i use a hot shower more with a jet on my legs and lower back, and then put it on a cold to normal tempature and then finish off with some heat

to add to injury prevention, i roll a golf ball under my foot on the arch 10 times front to back and 10 times side to side while seated each night before i go to bed and when i wake up, doing this helps keep your ankle bones aligned and prevents injuries (i was recommend this by a chiropractor), i almost broke my ankle when i was a sophmore and was only out 1 week because my doctor said my bones stayed in perodically thus keeping my ankle swelling at a minimum, and i have rolled my ankle countless times and havent had swelling for more than the first night and was able to play the next day no problem no matter what the athletic event
