everyday way conditioning
The way strength and conditioning has helped me now is that I make it a point to go to the gym everyday if I can.
hurt morning pain
But now, I get up every morning and go to the gym because I don't like waking up stiff or in pain and wondering if my hip is going to hurt me.
training back-when gatorade
Well, back when I was training, probably the only nutritious thing on the market was Gatorade - that's all that we knew.
mom home play
I wanted to stay close enough so mom could see me play - where I could go home if I needed to.

When I was a kid, everybody in the neighborhood picked me to be the one in jail or be in the cemetery by the time I was 20.

I took a lot of things for granted - especially how I treated my body.

I think everyone would love to see Jeff Gordon lose or get run into the wall, but I think he uses that - similar to me.

I've always played with kids that were five, six, seven years older than me.
soccer baseball football
I was always active - I went from baseball to football. I didn't have time to work out.

It occurred to me in my junior year of high school. I got my first letter from a big college. I still have that letter to this day - a letter from Indiana.
sports running morning
I was the type of guy that used to get up in the morning and go out and just out run everybody on the field without stretching or warming up or anything.
soccer football baseball
I have been a fan all my life, but now I have been out of football for over 10 years, and out of baseball for a little over six years and I don't go to games.
hips wimps gym
Back before I injured my hip, I thought going to the gym was for wimps.
baseball play everyday
Really, it's not harder to train for them because once baseball starts you play everyday almost.
