Znowleopard Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 So how do you guys keep fit during the off season, i dont want to pass out the first time on ice after the summer (also i have a new team to impress). I have been working out a bit( and drinking too much beer) , but if anyone has some specific tips let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Pucker Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Hey @Znowleopard! Long time, bud! First point: Let’s not lose our heads here, and do something rash like cutting out beer altogether. Now that we have that out of the way... Not sure I have any really helpful tips, and I haven’t been on the ice since May (all that changes come Tuesday!), but I bought a spinning exercise bike and have been givin’ ‘Er on there every other day, getting up on the pedals for bursts, etc. I mix that in with jogging too, and some rowing machine. I also walk to work. Between all of those things, I think I’ve kept in reasonably good shape. I *think* the important things are variety and working at anaerobics rather than just straight cardio. TBH, my biggest concern was that you might give up beer - lol! cheers dude! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i should probably go on the rowing machine, that seems like a good idea. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunnyman666 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 I can’t add much to @Lucky Pucker‘s sage advice. Ease yourself into aerobic and anaerobic shape. Maybe do some jump rope to this great diddy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add a shot of vodka and you have a lovely dinner, that you could serve to your significant other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno - my parents are celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary today, and I’m pretty sure that raw eggs, vodka and beer were NEVER served... I want to make it to my 10th anniversary in October, so while my wife loves the Rocky movies, I might pass on the menu suggestion. Especially since she’s the reason I have access to a rowing machine (and coaching for correct technique; she rowed varsity at McGill, and also went to the Canada games) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coopaloop1234 Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I always keep in hockey shape just by playing all summer. May or may not be on option where you're at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTH Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I drive past all the stuff Rocky runs past. Works for me. The I-95 construction site scene has the old Philly Incinerator though. That's now gone. What's amazing is that at any time of any day you can drive on the oval and see people running the art museum stairs. Rain, snow, Africa heat, 4 AM... it don't matter. Always someone running up or down the stairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTH Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Meat? More like swiss cheese: https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/weird/Swiss-Cheese-Pervert-Arrest-240553061.html Quote Christopher Pagano, the man accused of being the so-called “Swiss Cheese Pervert,” posted 10 percent of $30,000 early Friday after being arraigned on stalking, indecent exposure and harassment charges. Pagano was arrested at his home on Noble Street in Norristown on Thursday as part of a joint investigation between Philadelphia and Norristown Police, officials tell NBC10 Philadelphia. The 41-year-old has allegedly been spotted driving up to women and asking them if they would like to get paid to see him put Swiss cheese on his genitals.
