(S14) PT 2 - Game day

[PDXBaller]

Axel Hornbacher has a lengthy pre-game ritual. It depends on when the games are played, but since we usually play them at night his day begins with waking up at 6 AM to do some light cardio and get the blood pumping. He likes to have that ‘runner’s high’ to start the day off well. After that, it’s a heavy breakfast of eggs, bacon, and potatoes to really fuel himself up until lunch time. He’ll hang out at home for a few hours before heading to a yoga session and stretch everything out and then grab some lunch on the way to the arena if it’s a home game. After that, Axel likes to get into the stadium 4 hours before the game starts to get on the field and start running a few drills just to get into the game mindset. He’ll run up and down the field and try to swat some balls in one on one drills against the second and third string receivers to get some reps in. After the light drills, he starts to get dressed and eats a light meal before the game to make sure he’s not hungry while playing. That’s pretty much his usual pre-game routine.
