In order to get better as a basketball player, or as an overall athlete, one must make a commitment to the weight room. Getting stronger is a key component to the transition to college athletics. In the Bell Athletic Center, there are two designated workout areas. One of these areas is on the second floor and mostly consists of cardiovascular machines such as the treadmills. On the bottom floor is the weight room that the athletes use to lift weights. Both facilities are accessible with one's tiger card and are open to all Trinity students.
Workouts for basketball players is on your own at this point. One must go lift and be in condition on October 15. I've been playing almost everyday, and trying to life every other day. When I have days in which I have open gym and also go lift, that is a three to four hours of my day. Time management becomes crucial to get all my academic work done while keeping up with the offseason schedule. Luckily, the weight room is open from eleven in the morning to ten at night for the out of season athlete. With October 15 creeping up in less than a month, it is important to get good workouts in the offseason to be in the best condition when the season rolls around.
