READ CAPTION ⬇️⬇️⬇️ WEIRD HABITS ATHLETES SHOULD NEVER DO ON GAME DAY 1️⃣ Try new foods → Don’t experiment with foods you’ve never had before because they could upset your stomach before the game. 2️⃣ Take a long nap → Sleeping too long can leave you feeling groggy and less alert when it’s time to compete. 3️⃣ Do a hard workout → Game day isn’t the time to get extra training in because you want to save your energy for competition. 4️⃣ Aggressively stretch → Don’t turn your warm-up into a long stretching session that leaves your muscles feeling tired. 5️⃣ Chug a ton of water → Drinking too much water at once can make you feel heavy and uncomfortable, so stay hydrated throughout the day. 6️⃣ Change your routine → Don’t suddenly change what you eat, drink, wear, or do because consistency helps you feel prepared and comfortable. 7️⃣ Scroll on your phone for hours → Spending the entire day on your phone can take your focus away from mentally preparing for the game. #athlete #habits #discipline
