Tennessee High School football team fights the heat

Gus Johnson now the Head Coach of Tennessee High School football team know that the season is around the corner despite the intense heat that has remained persistent in the Tri-Cities.

The members had woken up early in the morning to embark on strength-conditioning session on the fields of Central Park.

The practice is known as a gut check, and is intended to ensure the players get a taste of the reality once the game day is underway.

Trent Dowdell a Viking s who plays as a Line backer and a Running back applauded this practice as it did as the intended task.

‘This is probably the toughest physically and toughest experiment I ever undertook,’ said.

Head coaching professional Josh Holt responded that he and other members of the coaching staff constantly encourage proper hydration in athletes.

‘We tell them that the Western good spring water is what we need to inject into their bodies, and at the same time, they should avoid the purified waters which include; things like that. ’ Avoid using sugar products or caffeine and things of that nature. Honestly even the dietary side of things that we need to encourage the children too and they have to support at home just a bit to prevent such hot summer like we are seeing now,” she added.

Coaches have to remind players to replenish lost fluids during practice, but each player must take personal responsibility regarding his or her health and wellness; for example, before and after practice.

Speaking about the factors that go into self-discipline, Holt said the following: “Self-discipline is being accountable for your body. If the body is not prepared to come out here and work, then there is nothing that you will get out of it. Then yes, one part of it is water intake, food, hygiene, sleep among other things. All of those go into it and so therefore, self-discipline is what basically pushes you

According to Holt, the practice that involved gut check was something that benefited the team.
