Todd: Mike, I thought we would talk about weight training. You're kind of an expert. I see you in the gym a lot. You're always, you know, lifting weights. How did you get involved in weight training?
Mike: Well, I started in high school. I've played sports since I was little and once I got to high school, we had to start weight training for our team.
Todd: OK, and so did you just start with like, you know, the basics, like free weights or did you do like the machines?
Mike: Yeah, well, we had a weight lifting coach so we did both machines and free weights and he made sure that our form was correct and we did everything properly, so...
Todd: Right, now, actually which did you prefer, the machines or the free weights?
Mike: I prefer free weights. Yeah, I think machine is a little bit more restrictive than free weights so if you know how to... if you have proper guidance, then free weights are better.
Todd: So, actually you play soccer. Is that correct?
Mike: Yes.
Todd: See, that's interesting cause I wouldn't think that soccer players would be into weight training.
Mike: Yeah, that's the usual way of thinking for a lot of people, but actually now people into playing soccer are doing a lot more weights.
Todd: But when you lift weights, don't you feel that you're more tight? Or you're tighter? That you're not flexible?
Mike: Yeah, but that means that you have to stretch. Do a lot of stretching as well.
Todd: So, stretching is just as important as the weight training?
Mike: Yes.
Todd: OK, well, you don't play soccer anymore, do you?
Mike: No, after college I've retired 1 from competitive 2 sports.
Todd: So, do you still follow the same regiment 3 that you did with your soccer training?
Mike: No. Weight lifting when you're not playing sports is different than when you are playing sports, so now I just lift to keep fit and not actually for sports performance.
Todd: Well, that's interesting. Like, what is different about doing weight training for sports and doing it just to be fit?
Mike: The exercises vary 4 a lot. If you're doing, for sports, you do things that you need to do a lot of explosion 5 work so that you can move faster or better and... whereas 6 if you're just staying fit, it just more to get exercise and you know, to keep your shape.
