Our Year!

Welcome to the 2011 track and field season. I'm glad that you've decided to join 'the family'. The beginning of the season is always an exciting time for me and the other coaches. We never really know what to expect, but we're always pleasantly surprised.

The track season is a short season, but that only means that we have little time to prepare. It takes tremendous focus to be a track athlete. We'll need your committment to the program and what it represents.

Meyers has had a long history of succesful track and field athletes who have competed at the highest level, achieving remarkable individual accolades. In turn, those individual accolades have led to many team accomplishments.

So the question is, will you be one of those athletes? And will we have enough of those athletes to be one of those teams?

Time will be the judge, but I guarantee that if we work hard, we'll be pleasantly surprised.

Steadfast forever,
Coach T

Fitness Tips

Drink pickle and pineapple juices.The salt and vinegar in pickle juice can help muscles recover from sodium loss and decrease cramping. "If you're training on a hot day or doing intense activities, drink four to eight ounces of pickle juice 45 minutes and eight to 10 ounces of water 30 minutes before your session," says certified nutritionist and fitness trainer Majid Ali of the Healing Center in Culver City, Calif. "If your stomach can handle it, drink four to six ounces after or during your session to speed recovery." Pineapple juice can also reduce post-workout inflammation. "The bromelain [an enzyme] in pineapple juice removes lactic acid buildup in the muscles, which causes inflammation," he says. Ali recommends drinking six to 10 ounces, 30 minutes after training.
