    Alright guys,

    Been in the gym lots lately, mainly doing cardio and a few weights..

    Anything in particular to do to work on the sharpness prior to going back to play ball.

    I play in goal so reactions etc...

    Cheers

    I wouldn't say I was a 'regular' contributor...I tend to just tend to post between bans...and most of my best posts get deleted in thread clean ups :) ...that aside.

    If the people want reaction drills...the people will get reaction drills. Just need to ask...or more specifically...ask Barry then Barry will boss me around and make me get off facebook and actually do some work.

    Do me a favour Will....stop flogging that horse. Whatever may have happened in the past, none of the current modding team has ever banned you.

    1. I just said it as a joke...I don't really mind either way.
    2. I would of rather you had dropped me a PM or email or rang me if you never want me to mention it again or want to tell me that it's something that I can't even joke about because:
    a) you posting it here makes me look like a liar.
    b) it messes up a personally good thread.
    3. I'm pretty sure that G'em banned me previously...not that I care either way...or that I mind that..and it was only the other day that I had a heap of my posts deleted here.

    So I am only to happy to drop it if you will...just want to keep my bad name that I've worked so hard for :)

    Ok...I knew you were only joking...but you'd mentioned it (jokingly, iirc) just the other day too....it was just starting to feel like you were gonna keep poking that stick...soo....

    All fair points. Sorry about that.

    For the record, and in public: I do not think you're a liar. Not at all.

    it was only the other day that I had a heap of my posts deleted here.

    Fair enough. Some of that thread got undeleted later (not sure if you're aware of that).
    So I am only to happy to drop it if you will...just want to keep my bad name that I've worked so hard for :)

    Deal. :)

    Sorry I opened my mouth now :(

    OP, I'll put your question into a Martial Arts context, ie what I'd tell someone asking the same question in the Martial Arts forum..

    Ask your coach & put your trust into their experience.

    Asking online, and this isn't a dig at this forum, your likely to get opinions from 'cut & paste' merchants who've no real experience at any sort of training methods to people like Will (for example) with years of experience working with top level athletes.

    Personally I've never found an online source which beat my real life coaches.

    That's always the best place to start.

    I cut & paste only my own stuff.

    I will make a good little video this week...it'll be good...I won't let you down boss.

    I'm always moaning about something.
    All fair points. Sorry about that.
    That's cool...good point to make because we both know that an email from a moderator telling me to pull my head in is only just around the corner.
    For the record, and in public: I do not think you're a liar. Not at all.
    I wish you'd tell my girlfriend and my coach that...they both think I'm cheating on my diet...I swear to god...I didn't eat the Chilli Doritos at work...I've no idea where the empty packet came from.
    Fair enough. Some of that thread got undeleted later (not sure if you're aware of that).
    I don't live in the past...I only look to the future.
    Deal. :)
    I can't believe there isn't an internet/text symbol for the 'bro fist'...I'm starting to get sick of putting :) on the end of every sentence I write.
