We're going to have to establish some form of a passing game, ... We just can't run it on everybody.
Sometimes I sit back and think, 'Is this really happening?'
To be honest, I'm kind of shocked. They just threw a monkey up in here or something like that.
A guy like Bruce Lee, I've always been a fan. How he used to be able to move and be so quick. You look at some of the exercises that he did, and it was all majority free weight, like standing on your hands. That works every muscle. Everything is firing.
I'll get out and do Pilates. I'll get in the ring and do some rounds of kickboxing and grappling and MMA conditioning. There's a lot of unique stuff that I do, too, that a lot of people wouldn't imagine or think about doing, like box jumps. You get a 42-inch box and dumbbells and practice working on your explosion jumping up on those boxes.
It feels good to give back to the people who support you.
