Last night was chest night. We took a little step back last night in our progress. I'm not sure what was up, but both Hoss and I struggled a little bit with the weight. I finished @ 265 for one rep on the bench, and attempted 280, after being able to do 275 last week, but failed. I did start to move it, but just couldn't get it past the pinch point.
Next we moved on to dips. I finished up @ 90lbs, and it was a struggle on every set. Especially @ 70lbs. I'm not really sure what was up with last night, but the strength I normally have just wasn't there. Same with incline bench. I finished @ 225 for one rep, but 185 was a struggle.
This morning Brandon and I worked on routes again. Another great day, except for the few deep ones I dropped. I am finding myself over running some of the passes. Once I get it in my head that I need to speed up to catch up with a pass, I end up over running the ball. So I really need to keep that in mind when fielding those deep passes. It's funny, I probably caught about 50 or 60 passes today, but the 2 balls I dropped are consuming me. I just don't want it to be a big play in a game that hits the ground. I guess that's the beauty of the game, no matter how good you think you are, or are getting, you still always have room for improvement. There is plenty of room for improvement with my route running. I round off a lot of my routes. I'm finding that my momentum is carrying me past where I want to go, no matter what my mind keeps telling my body to do. I need more core strength, so that is something that we will be working on harder here on out. Next will be to get some coverage in front of me, and I think playing flag this winter will help with that. I just wish there were more hours in the day so that I can get more practice time in. I know I can get better, and I want to do everything I possibly can to get to that point.
