Whenever you are in a new system, and you go on summer break and come back for training camp Day 1, you don't know how much is really going to stick.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Every training camp is important so you can show you're improving and staying consistent.
Training camp is a grind, and it truly is all about embracing that grind and coming out here and forgetting about the heat and working to get better every single day.
I understand what training camp is for. It's needed. It's necessary, so it's just one of those things that you have to put yourself through and it makes you better. It gets you in good shape, so it's necessary.
My camps are always ten weeks. That's what makes me comfortable.
You try to make the most of each day. I'm not big into setting real specific goals. I think, really, if you just focus on every day - and I know that's the oldest cliche in the book, but it really is true. Day 1 of camp means just as much as Day 17 of camp. If you really try to focus on each and every one of those days, long-term.
Generally, I'll have three training sessions a day.
I approach spring training the same way every year.
If we are going to win the next war, in my opinion, 50 percent of the time of training should be allotted to night training.
I had 500 kids at camp this past summer for example. We do nine weeks for kids and nine days for grown ups every summer. The adult camp is a lot of fun.
In training camp, you know what each person is doing.
