Vision 01.23.09

We start to really bridge the work we have done today. More strength and explosive work for our initial movement in each drill. We also included more strength work around our core development. It’s time to begin to sculpt the physiques more, as well. We had a great day today. Lots of smiles and laughs. Today is the last day for Big Ron - he leaves for Omaha tonight. Not sure if he will be able to return anytime soon. I hope so, 'cause he brings so much light to each workout.

Talked to Steve Singleton today of the Minnesota Twins organization. He will be returning to train next week. Also Sean Young, wide receiver for Cal. Both we worked with as a children through high school. Sean will start his first day on Sunday. I’m looking forward to it 'cause these guys bring more speed to camp.

My conversations inspired me to preach the Vision in practice today, so we stressed the ability to see the dream - to envision what you believe. Whether it’s a drill, or your dream, you must be able to see it clearly in your head before you set out to accomplish it.

VISION ~ imagination
Allows you sight when times are dark
And reason when they’re bad
Creates the path by which you walk
When there’s no map to be had
