To stay in shape most athletes continue working out after their career is over , even if it’s not as rigorous as the college training. We continue to run, lift weights and train. We do this to merely stay in shape. Our bodies are used to working out and we feel weird not working out once we’ve been away from it for so long. Working out and staying in shape has become part of our lively hood, we can’t just stop working out and do nothing because our mind and bodies won’t let us. It’s weird , I know. We can take a month off and then look in the mirror and say “no this isn’t me, I have to get back in the gym.” A lot of athletes workout on their own but some go to CrossFit training because they’re used to someone making their workouts for them and coaching them through it. Nothing is wrong with that, as athletes we are trained so having workouts like this is easier to do.
