Every moment you have a choice, are you going to check-in or check-out?
Checking-in
Staying connected with your loved ones
Listening to your body
Being present when someone is talking to you
Executing the details
Not letting things slip through the crack
Living life to the fullest
Checking-out
Leaving the last question blank
Waiting to speak as opposed to choosing to listen
Being inconsistent. Show up one day and not the next
Letting your passions fizzle
Not bringing your ideas to life
Waiting. Reacting. Walking away.
Happy #freshgearfriday from @adelphi_wlax captain and #FLG #studlete coach @jackiejahelka!
Can the #Panthers 3-peat this year as DII #Nationalchampions?
We think they just might
Here’s a nice #whiteboardwednesday wall ball routine for you leading up to High School pre-season
Do this straight through and time yourself – your goal should be to complete it faster every time – but do NOT let your form slip.
If the ball drops – you don’t have to start over but it will affect your time.

What’s stopping you from being the best you can be?
Fear if judgement.
Fear of working too hard.
Fear of standing out.
Remember, you can get better each day or get worse, what’s it going to be? If you choose the former, don’t let others stop you along the way.
Each week, FLG features fresh apparel and hard good from schools our Alumni attends.

You can watch Ryan break ankles this Spring by following Binghamton Men’s Lacrosse Team.
The millennials are growing up in a world with decreasing face-to-face interactions. Millennials lack the development in vital personal skills such as empathy, connection, and mindfulness.
Multi-tasking and time spent on screens big and small, leave millennials distracted. As an athlete, being present at all times is vital to development and success.
The good thing, mindfulness can be developed. Like picking up a ground ball with your weak hand or shooting top corner, mindfulness is a skill. Mindfulness can be learned.
Below we’ve listed some ways YOU can practice MINDFULNESS:
– Practice doing ONE thing at a time. For example, read a book without your phone on your lap or on your desk.
– Be PRESENT: worry about what’s happening at the moment. For example, don’t text and walk. Just walk. Interact.
– Be PREPARED: lay your clothes out the night before, prep your meals for the week. Preparation is key. This allows less of a focus on time constraints and an increased focus on being present.
– Set your alarm earlier than you need to so you can stretch your body and your mind. Happy body, happy mind.
– Set PERSONAL, ACADEMIC and ATHLETIC goals and set steps to reach them. Goals allow you focus and get things done.
– LISTEN to your body. If you’re exhausted, rest. If your sore, ice. If your injured, take some time off. If you successfully listen to your body, you’ll be able to listen with your mind.
Why girls should think is the box rink:
1. Create slickness
2. Enhance decision making
3. Learn to play in close quarters
4. Develop variations of passes
5. Play fast. Think different.
