Going to the gym one or two days a week is a total waste of time. Going to the gym is a total waste of time.Do your workout at home (no drive time,no waste of time), do push ups, sit ups, rubber band work, whatever you think helps your sport or sports EVERY DAY (45 minutes or so is good enough), I also run or ride my bike after work a few days a week. When I was a single parent I would get up at 5 am work out make lunches and still get the kids to school and be at work by 8, (yes John there is life before 7 am). Getting up early and working out is addicting (I promise you will get used to it ). Do not take time off working out just because it is ski season it will not work out in the long run. When I work out in the am I watch all the cool shows Kim hates, like mountain man, supercross, gas monkeys, I would watch skiing if it were on, its great and it works. 59 year old baller.
