The Trevor Theismann Show

Fitness trackers can muddy the water when tracking calories. There are so many variables that can influence the amount of calories an individual burns in a day by inflating your exercise, and over estimating how much food you're actually eating, individuals can struggle to accurately track her calories. Develop a system of averages. What averages of movement do you do every day? What averages of food intake do you do every day. By understanding an average you can fail on the side of surplus or deficit to help you get results.

Had a great time watching these videos. Hope you all enjoy them too.

Episode 2026 - If you need massive space, a walkway, a great wakeboarding wave, and the ability to surf, a forward drive is a pretty great choice. The layout in these boats are much more convenient for walking throughout the cockpit, and you do not lose any of the features you would be looking for in the V-drive. I believe if you want the biggest monster Surfwave out there you are still going to have to pay over 200,000 dollars for a monster boat. However, if you have a family and are looking to have fun out on the water I really don't think there are any regrets in buying a forward drive. It has a comparable wave to many lower priced V-drive boats and if you add weight, just like they do on every V-drive out there your wave will keep getting bigger.

Episode 2025 - If you are a parent coaching your kids or just trying to help them get better at a sport, speed is very important.

Episode 2021 - Here's a great conditioning drill for baseball players. Add this to the end of your training as a group. You can alternate athletes and have up to eight players per group. Any bigger than that I recommend that you split up into smaller groups. Pulling a football out at the end of practice can be a great way to loosen up the group. You can do this workout with a baseball and glove as well, but I have always found that utilizing a football here and there is fun for the guys. A great tip to start this exercise is to cover arm action and how to settle your head as you approach the ball. Learning how to run smoothly is very important during the last phase of this exercise. Calm the gate, then reach, and catch.

Episode 2020 - Hip flexors are extremely important for developing speed. This unique drill is fun to use with football players. It trains not only the hip flexors, but also change of direction.

Episode 2014 - the Netflix documentary untold: the girlfriend who didn't exist, is a crazy dive into the Manti Te'o catfish extravaganza. By the end of the documentary you can't help but feel terrible for Manti Te'o and what he went through. It's hard to believe that a guy of his stature could get catfished, but as a college athlete myself, I knew many teammates that had long distance relationships and video calls rarely worked. I think the documentary approach the topic from a middle of the road perspective and just tried to tell the story. I believe that if I told the story I would've made the cat Fisher and the reporters that brought the story as a bit more of an enemy. They truly did paint him out to be a terrible person in the papers, and the catfisher is just a savage.
