Ask your team how many have dogs. Usually, it's about half. "Is it fun to have a dog?" The girls say, "Yes!" "Is there anything not fun about having a dog?" It's always the same. "Picking up the poops."
Every relationship or task-oriented activity (school, job, business, sport) has the "picking up" aspect. Without exception. Ever.
"That doesn't apply for parents, does it?" Consider parenting, work, paying bills, saving, tax preparation, and household maintenance and that's just the start!
Not volleyball? How many player love setting up the equipment, shagging balls, cleaning up the bench area, handing out lollipops, keeping score, baking brownies for the away games? You do it because they're all part of the MVB experience.
To do what you want when you want, you often do what you don't want when you don't want to.
That includes strength and conditioning, plyometrics and other training that doesn't provide any immediate positive feedback.
Adopt a "get to" not a "have to" attitude and the work may go a little smoother. "I get to work on strength which is going to help me play with more force."
Lagniappe. Master yourself.
