Broken Arm
By eddie on Aug 26, 2008 in Sports
I haven’t swung a bat in six months. Frankly, it’s driving me crazy. You see, I’m a bit of a baseball addict. Unlike a lot of guys, though, I’m not content to just watch other people play baseball on TV. Why let them have all the fun? I’m nothing special when it comes to baseball. I haven’t played seriously since high school, and that was a longer time ago than I’d really care to admit, haha. I’m a bit of a pitching machine junkie. I’ve been known to haunt Tampa Florida batting cages whenever I get stressed out, or just want to relax, or feel like getting a little exercise. This is getting a little off-track, but I’d like to mention that batting is actually a great, total-body exercise. When I call it exercise, people often scoff, thinking that swinging a bat is just moving the arms. Actually, you step and twist into a good swing with your whole body. The core body muscles, such as your abdominal muscles, are the really strong ones that send the baseball flying when they catch a good piece of it. Anyway, when I found a good indoor baseball training facility in Florida, I started showing up fairly often, and I actually started getting pretty good at hitting. I even did some baseball strength training Tampa. Then I broke my arm. Now it’s in a cast. And so I haven’t swung a bat in six months. And, like I said, it’s starting to drive me crazy.
