What's an off season? I'm still working games.

Anything outside the scholastic season is off-season for me: AAU, Pro-Am, Camps, etc are all off-season.

Off season? There are more games now than during the winter.

I'm trying some new interval training...

One rep is: Walk for a minute, jog for 15 seconds, sprint for 15 seconds.
Do six reps, then take an extra minute walking.
Then, do five reps, and take an extra minute walking.
Then four reps, extra walking minute, three reps, extra walking minute, two reps, extra walking minute, then really sprint on the last one, 21 total reps. It takes about 45 minutes and you cover a bit more than three miles. I downloaded the JogLog app to guide the workout with audio cues, which works around your iPod/iPhone's music.

Tonight was the first time I did this since my trapezius injury nine days ago. It got me huffing and puffing, but I was soaked in sweat at the end.

I love to just get on the bike and ride. It's a non impact and non weight bearing exercise, great for joints. Doesn't need a gym full of equipment, simple, and I love it.

I have been working out in the gym too, but I enjoy biking the most for staying in shape.

Swimming is great for cardio, provided you don't swim in short bursts and keep your heart rate up. Also no-impact and great for your joints.

I too do a lot of swimming and running over the summer now that my weekends are free.

My summer season lasts another four weeks though, so I'm still running the floor too.
